My best score is 263 / 200 diamonds. Looks like some ending condition are missing. The depth changing is a bit harsh : when you go down at the bottom of the screen, the witch to other screen make you go really fast and kind of lose control (not sure if I'm really clear here).
Otherwise, nice game :) !
I've checked every key on keyboard before I realised I am supposed to use mouse :) I like the shaking. I think going deeper could be solved little better

@okolobr You have to survive 120 sec. I understand, i don't take the time to make the camera smoother in transitions. I'm happy you like it.
Very nice! I had a lot of fun. Not sure why sometimes the location of the character jumps up or down? And also, I reached over 200 Diamonds but the game went on, so what is the goal?
Liked it a lot overall

@zifandef If you survive 120 sec and have 200 diamonds you may have the "good" game over. I'm glad you like it.

Going deeper could have been made a bit less irritating, but great game overall, enjoyed it! :)
500/200 diamonds! ...he seemed to stop collecting them after 500 :)
Best game yet :D
There are pictures of fish on the wall :O
Fun and humorous game, I like it :)
I only got to 183 but still had the/a happy ending.
@myachin How? O_O

Thanks, everyone. I'm really happy you appreciate it.
@SuperIzzo It's not a fish it's a ... well ok it's a fish. You did't got the happy ending (the girl is sad). Try to go deeper to get more diamond.
@thephantom Yeah i have some struggle to balance game, it's always too easy or too hard.
has that "just one more go!" feel to it. Good work!
ahaha what was going on there. I liked it but the opening cutscene was so confusing

Wish the camera would be smoother, but this works pretty well.
The mouse works really well for this game. Cool idea. I enjoyed it!
The "drawed" graphics are really fun!
I love the game over screen!

This game rules =D
Intro story is well told (I didn't quite get the last bit, was one guy smoking a joint?), game itself is fun, nice job!

Thanks everyone for feedbacks, i appreciate it a lot.
@Kwrky *spoiler* Actually yes, it's a super joint (at the begining I want to do a super "energy drink" but joint is more fun. May be it will have been clearer if i have add some "super" effect arround it. (sorry for my bad english)

Cool idea, only complaint is that going down is a bit "jaring"...

Really like that the history uses no words, and the gameplay is simple and addictive
Haha, that was great, loved the little cut-scene at the beginning. The mechanics themselves were actually also surprisinlgy good. I really liked the risk-taking part of it when going downwards in order to get more diamonds.
Moral of the story: weed solves everything?

Again thanks for feedbacks.
@ZeppelinCaptain I prefer : "Diamond solves nothing" :).
Cool quest for diamonds! :D
Linux download needs installation instructions? I ran make, but got the following error:
CC src/Entity.cpp
In file included from src/Entity.hpp:4:0,
from src/Entity.cpp:1:
src/Utils.hpp:6:29: fatal error: SFML/Graphics.hpp: No such file or directory

@arrogant.gamer yeah sorry for that, you need to install SFML 2.1. If you want to give a try this tutorial seem pretty simple and should work : http://sfmlcoder.wordpress.com/2011/08/16/building-sfml-2-0-with-make-for-gcc/ . It will compile and work when you have it for sure (I do it on Linux).

... Are the characters in some kind of blackface? I don't know if that's your intention or not, but, um... it kind of looks that way.

I like it! Starting with the prehistoric painting in the beginning :p which brought you in the right mood to shoot yourself through the earth! Good job
