how do i get past the first level? i'm just seeing a horizontal plane - i can move to the right of the screen, but that just restarts it. i tried digging a bit, but didn't see anything.
Foon → Ludum Dare Explorer → LD29 → the miner and the king

sorry , it seems there was a bug in the game
i re uploaded it and it should work fine now
You have to carefully dig to not screw up.
OK, so as far as I can tell, you can't dig through those protruding blocks in the 2nd/3rd levels, even though you can dig under them through soil of the same type? I'd suggest some different colouring there if it was intentional, or maybe it was just a bug?
The pacing of the game was a little too slow too. Not just the speed of the character, but the rate at which difficulty increased.
The mechanics were solid once I got used to them though! Digging felt pretty good, especially digging under all the enemies!
The learning slope is to steep. Level 0 is of no use and level 3 is already too difficult.
Solid idea, but would need some tuning to the gameplay.
