There are some small issues with the bearing when clicking extreme angles, and the Web Player have a harder time adjusting "straight" bearings :/ It is not a showstopper so it should be playable...

Also, you might need to press keys 2 times when starting the games :P

It got a little repetitive feeling around level 5, might help to make the increase in difficulty more extreme. Levels 1-5 I was able to make $1500-$2000 each with ease. It's super hard (impossible?) to return the drill to a straight direction once you turn.

With some polish and audio this could be a cool little game, good work :)

I like this idea a lot. It's got this kind of quick diving to get to diamonds vs going slow to get points strategy.

The basic concept is ok, I feel like its a bit easy. Adding some more gameplay elements would be cool too. Otherwise its not bad!

The fact that you can only turn 60 degrees at a time can easily by countered by clicking more times. The difficulty increase way to slowly. Stopped at level 4 after suiciding in all previous levels.

Nat anything to complain about. Getting around 1200-1500 every level, but it's a bit repetitive.

Really liked the idea, I just wished I had something to spend my money on, and maybe some more variety between levels/depths.

Great game! You should add an option to upgrade/speed up the drill though. Maybe by using the money earned by drilling?

Neat little game, but you can get an infinitely high score. Just drill into the sky! :D

With that glitch in mind, I think I got the high score:

It is a little on the easy side, but not bad at all.

Nice game, but a little too slow. The first levels should be much shorter. Stopped at level 5 because the challenge was missing.

Simple mechanics and clear objective, cool game. It's missing some music!! Also some hazards, you can't just lie on the durability of the driller.

Hmm I can't seem to play the game. It says press any key to start, but I hit lots of different keys, clicked everywhere, but nothing starts the game.
