I. Love. This.

Класс! Идея супер. В первый раз подумал, что цель копать вниз избегая или разминируя проход. Добрался донизу и ни прыгнуть, ни рестартануть... пришлось жать F5)) Во второй раз я на это не попался и с играл как в классический сапер. В итоге вышла замечательная игруха!

The game is fantastique, I love the idea that you took the classic minesweeper into something more realistic. If I can give you some advice : - Be careful, the font is sometime difficult to read, may be use an outline to help that. - May be add some sound effect when you dig/defuse, this will add some life to the game.

Overall, the game is really fun, and probably one that I will recommand.

This is a wonderful concept. I love it. However, after I realized that bombs don't have numbers on them, it took a little of the mystery out of it. Also, the controls flipping back to dig after disarming killed me twice. That didn't feel great. Good job. Fun game.

In my first gameplay I was going to defuse two mines in a row and accidentally blowed myself up. After that I played a bit more and the game is really cool, simple and known concept but with a little twist to make it different.

I love minesweeper, and this game delivered. I did find that removing the mines and adjusting made the challenge pretty simple it was still a really fun concept.

Nice concept, felt a little like DigDug too. Good merge of mechanics, even if I often ran out of defuse kits. :slight_smile: Music is cool too. Good work! :thumbsup:

Like another commentator I was expecting "Defuse" to be a toggle, so I blew myself up trying to defuse my second mine. :sweat: Showing the numbers before you dig does take most of the puzzle out of minesweeper, but the game's still pretty pleasant and the graphics are quite nice. Not bad!

Such a clever combination of games, love it!

Cute sprites, I like the music as well. The idea is cool but the mechanics didn't quite click for me in practice the way they do with minesweeper. Maybe my brain is just getting it too old and slow. A couple of sound effects would go a long way. Good job.

Ahahah, we've also created a game with mechanics related to the minesweeper. Yours is more "classic" style but I really appreciated playing it. The music is nice, the fact that you can climb up the rocks makes it easy to move around without being completly stuck. Nice game overall. Good work

I'm a big fan of minesweeper so I definitely got a kick out of this, although my feedback is similar to what others have already said about removed mines adjusting the surrounding numbers does make finding mines very easy. Still though it was an enjoyable new way to experience minesweeper so I had a good time with it! Well done!

Most of my feedbacks will be similar to what have been said: it's a nice variant to minesweeper but revealing the numbers before digging and updating them on diffuse simplified the challenge a bit too much. The diffuse would also be more intuitive by being a toggle.

Overall, it's a good game that is a few upgrades away to being great! good job

Great well-rounded compo entry, the music and graphics are great, and it's fun to play. I think I may have found a minor bug where I couldn't jump from the very lowest spot. Other than that, I have no criticisms besides what's already been mentioned. Cool idea, well done.

Hello fellow Minesweeper player! Pretty nice game, movement feels smooth and the graphics is nice. I however wish that there was a way to swap between digging and defusing (by shift key or something) or as two different keybinds.

Really nice game! The combination of block digging & minesweeper is pretty smart. For some reason I completely forgot how minesweeper works and I thought that the numbers were the distance to the closest bomb, which made me seriously confused at start, but figured everything quickly, so probably it isn't a big problem. Concerning the theme - it doesn't really feel like going deeper, you just have a fixed map to clear and that's it. Sound effects would definitely improve the experience. Overall, a cool game, enjoyed it, great job!

Great game. Very frustrating though that it switches back to dig automatically after defusing. I went to defuse the two bombs on the second to last row and blew myself up because of that switch. Still great concept and execution!
