Over all this is a brilliant game, I love the twist on the theme. I discarded a similar idea and this is probably 20x better than what I would have done.

This game is hilarious, I really liked your take on the theme. The gameplay is well done also.
Smart game! I was hoping there'd be a funny creationist one. :) This one did its job in addressing that, although I didn't immediately pick up the controls. I think having access to arrow keys for movement would be nice. Fun game though!
I liked this game. Great use of the theme.
A fun game and a fantastic theme.
This is hilarious!
Brilliant twist, hope this gets top 10 in theme.
Funny game with great audio and mood.
Haha, awesome concept for a game and well executed too. I liked the how the difficulty steadily ramped up and the 'risk-reward' system for trying to get the miners to discover new fossils without hitting them is pretty clever. Great work!
The moment I added that twist was the moment it started being really fun, and to think I was considering adding the opposite effect (older fossils are worth more) for a while.
Love it! :-D Great idea and funny too.
Very nice game! Maybe it just need a goal.
Brilliant game! I first thought I was supposed to shoot the miners, but the way it's actually played is much more interesting. Very smart and funny take on the theme.
Btw: That was the 50th game I rated! Woohoo!
My first playtesters did that too, I find it funny that people go straight to blowing them up! That's one big thing I'd like to improve, make it obvious after one or no shots that you aren't supposed to hit them.
