OreGrid

I had a fun time playing this. The animations and screenshake made the mining feel very impactful. Like other people have mentioned, I had no idea there were challenges until AFTER I completed the game, which is a pretty big flaw IMO. I also REALLY enjoyed having to mine the upgrade buttons to unlock them, that was a fun and unique touch to the experience. I also appreciate how the upgrades felt like they had weight, the opposite of what I see happening with a lot of games like this. 

I also took down some notes while playing the game and I'll just put them here for consideration (note: these are MY opinions, other people may disagree)

• Feels a little too repetitive overall for my tastes. However, it felt like a good middle ground between an idle game and the old Flash games of yesteryear

• 4x4 is a bit small for beginning, feels like a slog to get anywhere, especially before the first two collapses

• Why turn off auto-sell, then almost immediately give it back to the player with an upgrade? It didn't make much sense

• In the early game, being able to run out of rocks to mine feels stupid as if player is punished for selecting good upgrades or being too fast for the game to keep up

• After a collapse, you lose the ability to hover-click ores. As someone with wrist pain problems, this annoyed me greatly. Perhaps make it an accessibility option?

• Exiting upgrade menu is very annoying in the webpage version because you can't use the Esc button and the x button is super small compared to other buttons.

the game was very fun and I have an enjoyable time playing, though I would've liked to know that there's a separate shop in the main menu, didn't realize it exist until I finished the game.

Also, I'm having some mixed feelings with your definition of "clicks" I've finished the game with less than 700 clicks in total, and you have an achievement for clicking 1 trillion times. Is it intentional that the click & hold upgrade and the auto click doesn't count as individual clicks? because if so I can't see any way to get that 1 trillion clicks achievement legitamently. however, on the other hand, there's a challenge to get to 15x15 grid in 300 clicks or less, so it feels like it is intentional for the auto click to not count towards clicks... I'm confused in this part.

This last part is mostly just rant but, why do you also prevent us from continuing the completed save file? I want the satisfaction of buying out all the upgrades (even if they're not really useful anymore).
