Disc Dug

Legend tells of a mine shaft dug in 1982, that has since been long abandoned. In the mine's glory days, many came from far and near to gather the mine's priceless gems.

The year is 2020. Dug, a university student with a slowly dropping GPA, fears he may have to retake classes, pushing back his graduation date by another year. Knowing he cannot afford another year of college, Dug becomes melancholy.

Dug remembers his father, Doug, telling him stories of the mysterious mine shaft in their hometown and its riches. 

Fearful yet determined, Dug sets off towards the mine. Little does Dug know that the mine has changed a great deal in the past 38 years...
