Hey there guys. I'm getting wise to this marketing game, so here are some GameSpot-exclusive gift codes to get the ball rolling. The special currency of Battle Mines is called simply Gold, here I'm including 3 codes for 10 Gold and 3 more for 5 Gold. 10 Gold (~$10 value) is enough to give you the "full" game experience. It will buy you two things: 1. Autoharvest (cost: 5 Gold), which allows you to automate building harvests while you are away. 2. Terraforming (cost: 5 Gold), which lets you change the composition of your land and unlocks the upper tech tree. If you get a 5 Gold code, you will have to pick which one you want (unless you can throw in a few bucks; you also get a little free Gold at the start). If you want terraforming, be sure to save your Gold until you can advance up the tech tree a little ways. 10 Gold codes W58ID00JDI6O2D1B 5XXGJ5PRRCQMB5CL UXZQYISVVI6TPQ38 5 Gold codes 5HMSZBTXUIKGTSMA QRTE1HP4KU6TSLC4 ADMK255SARNTI147 To use your code, first create an account at http://battlemines.com Then go to the Account page and enter the code. Only one code in this batch will work per user. Please don't create multiple accounts. If you use a code, please mention it in this thread, and later on it would be great if you returned to post feedback! Thank you!
A new client is up now which is much more stable than the old one. Also I'm planning a new feature in the next few weeks which will stir things up and increase player interaction!
All the codes have probably expired by now, but if there's interest I'll post a few more for you guys. Just give a shout!
Hi gamespotters! Thought some of you might be interested to see my presentation on Battle Mines down at the Full Indie Meetup in Vancouver this month:

Also the game has undergone some visual upgrades and tweaks since I last visited here, the player base has grown slowly but steadily, and we now have mini-games to give people more stuff to click on!
It's basically this whole good time, free to play, minutes a day! Come taste the apocalypse with us!
The Battle Mines soundscape has had a complete overhaul! Welcoming the talents of Marcus Zuhr, Brent Silk, and Jacob Burgess in music, sound effects, and voice acting respectively. Log in to listen!
