Good work ! Combat against ennemies can be a bit complicated if you're too close to them. A great amount of gameplay elements for a gamejam.

Very nice game! Immidiately when I saw the time, I was expecting games like this. I think the biggest issue with the game is the lack of sounds. I would probably have dropped few of the ore types/items and used that time to create at least some sort of minimalistic sound effects. But it is very impressive that you managed to create intelligent enemies, a variety of different kind of items, shop and crafting system etc. I played it only for like 5 minutes but I got the idea that you could sink so much time in to this game.
A pretty solid game. Going back up to heal, get food, and upgrade makes for a nice game loop. I also like the little wobble your character does when he walks, as well as his balloons. I do feel like the mining time on some of the later areas gets to be a bit too long, and it got a tad repetitive. The menus were also a bit finicky to use (not sure why the menus are controlled with F and Enter when the game is controlled with F and D). Overall, an enjoyable entry. Nice work!
Fun game. Some pros and cons:
+The character animation (the balloons are a nice addition)
+The overall gameplay is really fun and addictive
-Some of the art don't match to good, while some are more detailed (the player) and some more basic (blocks)
-The combat is too hard; the monsters will stand in you, but in order to hit them, you have to be further away.
GAME OF THE YEAR! :smiley:
But I am sad to break every possible block and not win an achievement for that. Although the graphics are not finished, there is no music or sounds is a good game
I really liked the game, even though the graphics on it were not finished, incredible as it may seem, I thought it was beautiful.
I just missed some sfx, it could be a simple one, made in sfxr
It was a fun short experience, I really like the style on this one!
Very fun to play. Love the baloons. But prices a little too hard for a comfy playthrough. And it definitely needs an ability to sell goods one by one, not all by once.
Wow, great game. The general feel, feedback and polish is extremely good. Altough a lot of graphics are just placeholders/programmer art, the fact that little animations(like the stores becoming transparent when you get close or the block particles while you break them) make it feel like the user experience was taken into account, even if the right assets are missing. Some small quality of life improvements could make this even better, like reducing the prices, being able to restore health or food by amounts lower then the maximum (in case you want to save some money for other things), being able to easily see which items you can craft, and what items you are missing from the recipes that you can't craft.
The game is fun but a bit grindy :) The animations are really great, too bad that the remaining graphics are not as good as the character for example
Interesting experience, nice work on pixel art and characters animations.
Very nicely put together
Nice artwork and a really enjoiable game. I'm surprised that it have so few ratings. I realized too late that I could dig the green cubes so I crafted the big torch as last item and then I aimed (and reached) for the bottom. Well done :-)
