Would be nice if you could use the keyboard to scroll the window rather than moving your mouse to the edge

The camera felt too zoomed in, and I was able to dig the hole without any enemies coming. That being said the music is lovely, and I like the direction with the concept!

nice idea and the music was very nice but I missed to zoom in and out and also it wasnt very interresint (animation would have helped but as you said you run out of time)

There are 2 genres I'm impressed at seeing in an LD: RTS and fighting game. I think I've only seen 1 of each in the past few years... The ambition is admirable and it's unfortunate there isn't a Rating for elegant code :). I ended up where Tony was which was staring into the abyss of the hole I had made, pondering my life and soul. Hope to see the updated version soon, I'll definitely give it a shot!

@geeitsomelaldy, @tony-redmer, @jk-studio Thank you for the tips.

Keyboard camera-control and zoom tweaking is definitely necessary and planned in a future release.

@peachtreeoath Code elegance would not probably work as a regular voting category due to few (zero?) people actually looking at the code. Maybe a special sub-competition consisting of self-nomination followed by jury voting would be more appropriate. But LD is not mainly a programming-beauty competition - fortunately for most participants including myself (previous LD entries). :grin:
