Overall fun game! I found out that if you take the third path from the right you only encounter gems and dynamites and never those -time bags! Enjoyable non the less GJ!

I think it was fun, but the powerups confused me a bit.

Yes! This is exactly the kind of game I hoped someone would make. The music was cool. Maybe would have wanted a drilling sound too. Only thing that bugged me was that I didn't understand what the "time reduced" blocks did. Was that a bad thing or a good thing to collect?

@hotpaw, @kubbl, @lorena - Thank you for your feedback, and thank you for playing

Great work. Score wasn't too useful but going for depth was fun.

Got to 109m on my second try, couldn't get close again. It was pretty fun but the sudden teleports were a little jarring. My recommendation would be that when the player hits the ostacles, freeze time, highlight the obstacle that was hit, let the player see it disappear (or not, if it isn't suppose to), lerp them higher up, and then restart the timer.

@shaolin-dave thanks for the feedback, and thanks for playing.

Quite same as what happened with Shaolin-dave, got to literally 109 on my second and didn't get further lmao. Graphics were simple but very fitting for this game, nothing to complain about. Audio was also decent, the song was a pretty fun choice for this game :smile_cat: Obviously the theme was really on point, so gj with that! Those bags that teleported you up + the hard rocks were also a good decision in my opinion, made us think a lot more carefully and not just spam downwards :thumbsup: Gj dude!

Fun little game. I included it in my compilation video series of a bunch of LDJAM games! https://youtu.be/rCfIoJGG3mQ

This was fun! The drilling felt nice and trying to get deeper each run was a nice challenge. Also, the dynamite was very satisfying to set off :D Great work!

Enjoyed it a lot. Brings back memories of the olden pixel-art games a lot! Good job!

The designs and sfx are cool. I did not really understand how the game worked on the controller but on the keyboard is better. Well done !

Ahah I've been stucked in the wall :rofl:

Yes! I think you must tweak the gamefeel of the drill. Spamming the button is a bit exhausting. It's totally ok to let the button down during all the game. It think you core is the movement, and it must be juicy to destroy blocks. And maybe set the spacebar to drill too.

The music and the art are nice, so I hope you will improve the gamefeel in a post-jam!

Good job :thumbsup:
