good game GG
Quite fine, it is so complicated when you start but then gets better!
I expected the sound waves to be used to detect things not to control the character. Seems to be some graphic bug where lines of dark brown appear. Didn't really like the controls they could use some work to be more natural.
@Kragnir That's actually a good idea...
good effort man. reminds me of something i did for my first one using sonar to guide the player.. i found it quite hard tho.. and abit frustrating to use the keyboard to select menus then use the mouse to play etc.. still good going tho :)
The graphics and audio are pretty good for a game made in 48h, but the best side of this game is its respect of the theme and the original gameplay :)
Very fun, good entry for 48 hrs
8 / 10
Well done :D
I don't like the controls and getting points mechanics.
But the idea is cool.
Making sound waves is a bit temperamental for me for some reason :|

I really like the concept of non-standard controls. It gives me that feeling of playing something completely new and original.
The size of obstacles could be just a bit smaller. It would have been nice to know how close am I to the surface.
Also direction change could be more gradual instead of instant.
Well done for first LD :)
Interesting game concept. My mole ate a lot of dirt..
Nice idea and a fun game . Took me some time to realize you can't click far away to move direction :P
Couldn't run it on windows, missing MSVCP110.dll file ?
Novel steering mechanism but unfortunately poorly explained, took me quite a few attempts to work out where i could click to steer.
Liked the idea, but controls are not so obvious at first. Had to read the instructions at this page to succeed :).
Menu navigation by keyboard then game controls by mouse is a bit weird.
The screen area where you can click isn't too well defined. When clicking "too high", rather than ignoring the input you should project it down to the "legal" area.
That aside, it's a pretty decent game. Good work!
Controls are a bit odd but good game over all
