Press release:
Hong Kong – April 7, 2026 | Developer Type-Ten and co-publishers Gamersky Games and Drillhounds have announced that their upcoming mining idle clicker title Fracture Field will be launching on PC (via Steam) on April 20, 2026.

Fracture Field is an incremental quarry mining game. Shatter rocks with timed swings, then invest your earnings into upgrades. Build a fleet of drones to automate your empire, bomb tough layers, and unlock powerful prestige upgrades on your journey to master the quarry.

You must think like a manager, using powerful, charge-based bombs and smart demolition tactics to clear your field and maximize your efficiency.

“This project represents years of learning and iteration,” shared solo developer Type-Ten. “I built this game to be something I’d love to play myself, and I’m excited and proud to finally release it as my first solo Steam title!”

Fracture Field is slated to launch on PC (via Steam) on April 20, 2026 for US$6.99, with a 35% launch discount. There is also a demo available on Steam to try. To keep up to date, be sure to join their Discord.

About Fracture Field

It begins with a single rock and the satisfying thwack of your first swing. Welcome to Fracture Field, an incremental quarry mining game. You are not just a miner, you are the architect of a massive industrial empire.
Master Your Quarry

Master the rhythmic, timed-swing mechanic where every single hit feels impactful and rewards you with resources. As you shatter layers of Stone, Clay, and Sandstone, you’ll unearth veins of precious metals and brilliant gems, each tougher and more valuable than the last. But raw power isn’t enough, your quarry space is limited. You must think like a manager, using powerful, charge-based bombs and smart demolition tactics to clear your field and maximize your efficiency.
Design Your Engine of Growth

Dive into an incredibly deep upgrade system with hundreds of choices that matter.

Global Power: Invest Dust, your universal currency, into core stats like Fracture, Pierce, and Hit Speed.
Local Mastery: Pour layer-specific resources back into their source, turning your humble Stone farm into a supercharged engine.
Technological Advancement: Unlock powerful, game-changing features like the Drone Hub, where you’ll design and command a fleet of specialized drones. From area of effect Shatter Drones to idle Collector Drones, each have their own unique upgrade paths.

Fracture the World

When your power can grow no further, trigger a World Fracture. Shatter your entire operation down to its core to earn Core Fragments, a powerful prestige currency. Spend your fragments on permanent, game-altering upgrades that will fundamentally change how you play on your next run. The cycle begins anew, but this time, you return as a master.
