REALLY unintuitive to control.

I like the art! Cute little game.

Pretty fun game. Is there finish?

Looooved the artwork and thought the idea was very simple but very fun!!

This was realy cool! I may be biased because I really love drills(gurren lagaan) but i found the gameplay really fun! the controls where a little hard to pick up but I was stupid and diddnt read the description first :p

dreii 2014-04-29 08:07

oh! also it crashes when you finish the game fyi

pixel_3 2014-04-29 09:01

@TheDreik: Yes there is. And I worked darn hard on it.

@Dreii: Sorry about that, but that's what happens when you rush at the last minute. We'll fix it ASAP.

The composer would like to grab the attention of any FamiTracker users and point them towards the delicious soundtrack source :) - https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/41669097/Diggerdance.ftm

At first i tried the arrow key to move and it worked horribly.
However the mouse controls were great and had a bit of fun with it, really nice job!

Neat little game you got there!

Complete 5 stars, it was so fun, and so beautiful!

Fantastic game, fits the theme pretty well. The controls are hard to master I think, but that is reasonable - they feel good, I'm just bad at them. I felt like it took waaaaay too long to get to the lava area, and I couldn't make it past it :(

This is a good entry, great job!

Great music (but controls took some getting used to).
Game crashed randomly for me after a few mins of gameplay (Running parallels desktop on mac)

Veyr very nice! Love the graphics, music, the concept, and game. Great Job

I was so confused by the controls at the start. Very fun game though!

Pretty neat game. The controls feels a little difficult to maneuver, especially since it does a lot of seemingly extra flips and spins. But I like the concept, and overall it was pretty fun to play! Good job!

The game is pretty cool. It felt really weird when I died because a small rock hit me from behind, although I guess it makes sense. I just sort of assumed that I was stronger than small rocks and only the pink miners could hurt me.

+1 unintuitive controls but pretty fun. May be a "touch" version for android/ios can be done/sell.

acuity 2014-05-09 07:50

Nice game! I wish there were upgrades or different types of enemies!

kingtrez 2014-05-09 12:42

Very nice, very challenging. Nice little time wasting game. The controls should have been explained in the game i lost a lot of health just trying to figure out what button i needed to press. Other than that great game :) Best of luck

While I was having a bit of fun playing, I was kind of unsure how to play this game. It seems that I only have 4 mini drills and if I defense my mega drill from the pink colored mini drills, I lose a mini drill. If I have a shield I am safe, but shields are not guaranteed. There doesn't seem to be a way to spawn new mini drills and the game just ends after four lives. The times I played, progress seems very tied to luck with getting powerups at the right times instead of skill of attacking the rock throwing robots. I dug the music and the art.

Pretty cool game, one of the best drill ones I have played so far! I included it in part 23 of my Ludum Dare compilation video series, if you'd like to check it out :) http://youtu.be/yJ4mg8nxxfM

Ace, you've outdone yourself - everyone's commenting on how great your graphics are :p

Yeah, it seems we didn't really think this game too well through, but it was a good one to bash out - and it made me compose something VGM-like, finally!
