This game is pretty fun. Fairly simple, but it feels complete and enjoyable. Visually, I love the way the rocket smooths into going straight again after moving upwards or downwards.

I like it! The ship should maybe move a little quicker a little faster, but otherwise great! :D
That was pretty fun! The music was great also. The ship definitely need to speed up sooner though.
A bit awkward controls. Nice background music and a nice concept.
Very fun game and nice music.
- If you have no interest in drilling emptyness or not drilling while you go in blocks, why adding a control on it... I think the game would be more fun in auto-drill mode. The basic action would be hyper ( with maybe more of them but less poser )
- The turning animation of the ship is a bit clunky when you go up and down. Maybe you should mix your actual angle and your target angle to get a smoother move.
- The hyper speed up animation is super cool. I like the slow before and the red drill which continue alone in the end.
I had a lot of fun playing this. My best is 5483. I which I had some hints for powerup effects.

- The most contrasted blocks are diamonds one. It makes me want to avoid them, the deadly rocks should be the one with the more contrast. The fact that gold is like dirt ( with gold inside ) is a better way to analyze them as "diggable" maybe yo should do the same for diamonds.
- a Power bar instead of numbers would make you power management more visible.
- The music is good but the game need more sfx. drilling and diging sfx are ok, but I really wish I could hear those block explode/pop when I destroy them. I would bet perfect if those explosion sfx fit to the background music bpm.

Solid job, fun to play
