I read the chronicle of your development to get me here. This was a very interesting game. Like a new take on minesweeper. Unfortunately I suck at minesweeper so I wasn't exactly able to beat your game XD. But it was an interesting concept.

Really cool idea - first-person Minesweeper! I dig it.

Darn, I found a bug.. sometimes the height difference between tiles gets too big, the character can't move when that happens. A workaround is to move him sideways so he gets unstuck. I will fix this ASAP

The first first-person minesweeper I've ever seen and it's great! I'd play it on a tablet if it was available. :)

@Coblynau, android port is planned. If i can get my hands on an iOS device i might do that as well.

minesweeping game of the year, good job :D

Not bad - but I'd suggest showing the numbers on tiles in a way that allows player to see them when stepping on the tile for the first time - it's a bit of a guesssing game what number is shown under the player.

Interesting take on Minesweeper! Too bad I suck in Minesweeper.. Or I just have terrible luck.

it was bit hard to see the number of bombs on the tiles, perhaps the number could show over the character instead?

I absolutely love the idea of walking through a minesweeper minefield. It is a bit hard to see the numbers, though.

I would've liked to control it with the keyboard and maybe see adjacent values without stepping on them first (though that might make it too easy, come to think of it), but other than that, interesting take. :)

Cool idea and good execution. Just need to work on better player and camera controls. Great work!

cool, did not see much of the theme though.

I like this take on minesweeper since it fixes most of the problem with unsolvable parts, navigating the map was too slow though and it also seems like there was almost no mines on the map.

Nice little minesweeper game. It would have been nice to have a way to mark the bombs and

I suck at minesweeper!!! XD Nice game! I included this game in my Ludum Dare 28 compilation video series, if you'd like to take a look :) http://youtu.be/fUXvqevl8YI
