Loved the Graphics and sound, got really repetitive after a while but was fun at the start

It looks rather nice and plays pretty well. Though it's difficult/time consuming to buy things (The fact that you can only carry a small number of nuggets is a bit bothersome).

Also, some issues with the spike trap (I dug under it then jumped upwards and got killed.)

The graphics are incredibly, I love the pixel art. The game-play also felt solid, it was just a bit too slow. Too much grinding for small rewards and I felt like my progress was slowing with depth rather than increasing because of the long climb.

Fantastic work on the presentation and solid game all round. I'd love to see this game continued and expanded upon.

The pixel art is lovely, and the digging mechanic was fun to work with. I enjoyed the bizarre music too. I did have trouble getting back to the surface though.

Nice job on this!

Awesome start with graphics and sound. Needs more polish to keep from being repetitive.

Best pixel graphics I've seen this far. And 2d mining games are always fun :)

Really nice art, the little guys have so much character.

Graphics are nice, but I dug down too far and couldn't get back up and realized that the rest of the game was likely to be exactly the same, so I stopped. The music was alright, although the sound effects were a bit annoying.

art is tremendous, and getting back up is quite the challenge

Fun game but that king is kind of a jerk. Get your own gold, man.

I got 100 gold, upgraded my equipment, then went back down and got 97 gold, then accidentally dug into a rock above me by double drilling...

The king still said it was insufficient =(


It became a lot easier once I figured out how to glide along the ceilings ;-)

Best mining game dirt graphics I have seen in this LD!

Don't really like the sounds and music, but the gameplay is fun.
