OK, here's the deal. Ur ship is out of energy. U will never make it to ur cousins wedding on Frookier Prime if u don't refuel. Lucky for u there is a planet just below u. It contains the energy source u need to power ur space ship.
All u need to do is drill down into the core of the planet and take it. Don't u worry about the local inhabitants who will be left with no core or magnetic field after ur done. Ur cousins wedding is way more important... right?
It's a distance-upgrade game. Ur objective is to drill down into the core of the planet. U have to pick things up along the way which will aid u on ur journey to the center, and also upgrade urself like crazy.
