Interesting game. Wasnt sure how to play it at first. Nice job.

pietro-ferrantelli 2014-04-28 15:05

Great job, I really enjoy playing it ! I like the concept and the use of the theme :)

jalgames 2014-04-28 15:33

I can't make much sense of this. Can you please create an explination and notify me (by writing a comment under my game)

gmaker 2014-04-28 17:15

great job! really nice concept ;)

I couldn't understand how to play, can you add some instructions or controls?

I found left and right move me and space destroys a block. Is there something else?

ills 2014-04-28 18:12

Controls are described in the README file.
I will create instructions soon.

Thanks for playing!

jpdev 2014-04-28 18:12

Sorry, but I don't get it.
I can move left and right. Up uses a dynamite and destroys a block. You can do that 15 times.. but except for draining some what nothing happens.

If you had left some kind of how-to-play that would have been really usefull :)

jpdev 2014-04-28 18:14

Ooops - there is a readme file!

I will play again :)

left/right arrow key - move
up - remove block over you
x - remove a lot of blocks
z - interchange blocks next to you
space - remove block in the place where you are
r - restart level

wan't sure what to do but obviously fitted with the theme and
i liked the graphics

jpdev 2014-04-28 18:31

- first level hard
- second level .. harder
- third, first try :)
.. some semi hard ones..
.. and then the lava just falls on your head, didn't get that one.

how far did i make it? :)

jpdev 2014-04-28 18:33

correction (sorry for kind of spamming here) actually made it to the "you win screen" - wonder how many people made it :)

Ok, I wanted to like this game but couldn't figure out how to play it, then I found the read me file. Ok, this is pretty cool. Level progression didn't feel right for some reason.

Nice game ! Not as easy as I thought :)

seppel 2014-04-29 16:57

Takes about two minutes to figure out what is going on. Reading the README is essential. Then it was fun and I won. I liked how you had to dig up FOR the treasure. Thanks for the game!

Nice concept but the x command seems overpowered for just using 3 points.

gins 2014-04-30 16:48

Unfortunately the game doesn't start for me :(
It gets stuck after the command line window pops up.

marcellus 2014-04-30 16:53

I like the graphics and the challenge this game offers. Couldn't figure out what was the idea in level 4, waterfalling seems random.

Good entry still !

I like how you have to dig up for the treasure xD Nice concept, this game was really fun, great work :D

sanguine 2014-05-03 15:49

Interesting puzzles, albeit pretty hard

greatbigjerk 2014-05-03 15:51

Instructions would be nice.

muciojadpl 2014-05-07 10:23

I had a huge problem with understanding the goal of game. Is good that you're trying to making games, next time you do it better and better - although remember, instructions are veeery cool thing ;P Pozdrowienia od rodaka, rozwijaj sie dalej! ;)

benjamin-soule 2014-05-07 11:02

It was a bit difficult to figure out what was the goal. Some action like the swap have absolutely no feedback if you swap same squares. Maybe you should make them flash or even better block the swap actions if both block are the same.
I think I passe the 3rd level without realizing it just by pressing a random key... I finally got blocked on the 4th one.

Good take on the classic sand game. Most of them have few or no gameplay but yours seems interesting. You shoudl try to ass bit of audio on this
