Possibly Dig-N-Rig, although you dig to the left.
This is exactly it, thank you so much! The digipen must've been why I was thinking digiminer.
Kinda sounds like the flash game Motherload
That’s what I was thinking. Just got a nice tinge of nostalgia from this comment ☺️
Another commenter got it, the game I was remembering is dig-n-rig
That's more or less what it sounds like to me too, might be a different but might still be close enough to scratch that sme itch.
Tried it a bit, doesn't quite sound like what op is describing, though, there's no vacuuming or things being dropped on the floor and the mining is downwards.
Sounds like starbound to me.
It wasn't, it's dig-n-rig. That said, I really need to redownload Starbound, it's been a while since I've played it but I remember it being a lot of fun too
