Problem for your game is not the idea (I like it) but level design. Not in level building, but in adding some sort of danger for player: nothing can harm him or make it think faster, so the game is soon boring. You need to add some gold-eating monster, so could be a run against it :D Think about it!
I see this game as a web-based game, try Flashpunk or Flixel it's easy to do a game like this one, add kongregate api ad put on kongregate :D
Thanks for the feedback; I'm aware that it has a rather gaping hole in terms of hazards to the player! I will aim to rectify that in a future version :)
Nice game! I really liked it; the style of your graphics was especially nice. Another thing I liked was that opposed to other games, if you get stuck you don't just have to restart the level, you lose a bunch of points, but can keep going.
Nice idea (reverse boulder dash), but it's too boring - it needs better levels, some sort of challenge
Thanks for the comments! I'm glad you liked the game, and rest assured that next time I will allocate more time for making better levels and some sort of hazards to the player as well. Thanks for playing!
I don't think the game is boring - 17770 score; beat that, loosers! ;)
Theme-wise this isn't much, but yeah, more complicated levels would definitely improve the gameplay. I like it!
I join the others that say that it needs a bit of polishing in the level design department. Also, I fail to get the connection with the escape theme here; it looks more like a gold digger :-)
