@appix There are sound effects, could you tell me which platform you are playing on so I could try and find out why it might not be playing them?

Fun little puzzle game! I especially like the strategic aspect of having to move rocks to the front of the drill if you want to be able to go further. Because of that, I also felt like rocks were often more valuable than gemstones :P and also, it made the bombs kind-of harmful, instead of being a help.
Also, it was difficult to understand what some of the upgrades did. Still not sure what the scanners are for, or how bombs are supposed to be triggered.
The graphics are simple but they work very well and have a nice polish that most compo games lack (mine included :D)
I do have sound effects on my platform (Linux 5.10.30-1-MANJARO), and they sound nice! Would've been cool to have a drill sound effect, too. I also like the music, though it gets a bit repetitive after a while.
Great game!
