Not bad, but it's not very fun to have to purchase the ability to even steer. The lack of mobility in the early game means that several times I drove right into a pool of lava with nothing I could do about it. The TNT barrels also have far too large a hit box. Overall it's fairly fun though.

Hey guys!

Really cool game. Art is nice, especially UI and the drill changing with purchased upgrades. Great idea with the leaderboard. Definitely kept me playing for longer. I'll have to steal it for next jam ;)

One time when I was going through oil, I blew up and I didn't know why (maybe there was dynamite under it) and I think that overheating is too harsh. Often just passing next to lava for a few seconds (not even touching/"eating" it) is enough to die, even with overheating upgrades.

Great entry, cheers!

Very nice game, I like the shop system, but I would like to be able to steer more, because sometimes i just exploded by driving in to obstacles, without ability to steer.

I had a blast! (also, I died, lots of times)

I got an error at the beginning, something along `HTTP Response Header "Content-Type" configured incorrectly on the server for file Build/WebGL.wasm , should be...etc.`

But I was able to play nonetheless.

Cool game. I missed some music and sound, but I enjoyed it, especially the upgrades part. Really well done. It's a pity that one cannot keep them in the various runs. Allowing to keep them would make players stay more and play longer.

Collecting rocks to make energy was also a bit confusing, as rocks look as something to avoid while instead they aren't. Perhaps something that has a more "energy-y" look would be better, something that attracts the eye, and is lighter and has a similar color to the light green of the battery HUD.

Nice job!

Oof, the bigger you get the more dangerous the TNT becomes! Otherwise nice game :)

The idea and fitting to the jam theme is very good! The beginning is a bit hard until you can upgrade the rotation a few times, but when you get on track is a really fun and challenging game. The leaderboard rocks btw! Super cool to see other players scores ;) Captura de pantalla 2021-04-28 125704.png

Not bad, it lacks music but simple and effective. Well done !

This game was very fun. The only problems were that you get killed by the TNT from super far away, and it's really frustrating when you do. Also, the art was good but the digger felt out of place because it was so detailed. Other than that, great job!

Pretty good!

2021-05-14 02:32

Pretty great game, would be almost perfect if the collision on the TNT was smaller as others have said, perhaps an increased field of view could've also made it easier to control, however I do actually like the slow turning at the start because it makes the upgrades feel more significant. Good Job!

Ack! TNT _under_ the oil? Ouch. Little quality of life things like that aside, was a nice game. Definitely agreeing with the sentiment above that leaderboard was a good idea that kept us playing!

riana123 2021-05-14 04:18

pretty good game to me but I don't really like that there are bombs under the water and oil it could use some music but overall pretty good

I really like this game! The leader board really adds a competitive aspect to it. So much so that I found it hard to stop playing! However, the lack of audio makes the game feel like its missing something. Besides that, this is a very solid entry!

daveroony 2021-05-14 05:27

Wish it had more sound , but a nice little game , great job.

mhanapole 2021-05-14 05:42

Nice game! I liked the different upgrades you could buy, and it was cool that you included a leaderboard - makes you want to replay over and over to get the best score! Some sound effects would make this game really great!

sleepystudios 2021-05-14 05:57

It's cool that you were able to get a leaderboard and destructible terrain in a jam game! I think the movement could be a bit faster with more control, but overall impressive.

Nice Motherload vibes in this one! I enjoyed the game quite a bit, and would have been happy to continue playing a bunch more with an expanded upgrade system. Good job!

jonathan-lorenz 2021-05-15 15:03

FIrst I didn't understood, then I saw the upgrade menu button! I liked the upgrade system, and the fact that it makes the game more fun to play with time. Nice one!

zubspace 2021-05-15 15:26

Wow, really well done! It's fun an quite a challenge. The shop system is truly marvelous and makes you play more and more. It's not a new concept, but nonetheless it's really fun. Thanks for the game!

Fun little arcade game, wish I could turn further off the bat because feels like I barely have any control.

jickamangah 2021-05-16 08:08

Would be cool if things changed as you went on. Like gradually speeding up and increasing the turning speed of the drill. It'd also be cool to have pickups like a battery or immunity to spice things up a bit. Maybe a bomb or smthn.
