What Minigun Miner is

Minigun Miner is an arcade game developed by Dr. Ludos and released in 2025. It is available on Atari 2600 only.

The premise, in the publisher's words

our excavator is a powerful minigun, but you'll find it is quite fragile and explosive when colliding with walls or the bottom of your mine. Your left and right thrusters will work fine when avoiding the walls, but, sadly, your minigun is lacking a vertical thruster. To keep from colliding with the bottom of your mine, you'll have to take advantage of the gun's recoil when you shoot. Each downward shot forces your mighty minigun upwards, allowing you those precious moments of free fall to expand your mine. Great riches await the skilled Minigun Miner. Are you up to the task?
