fun game, was really easy I enjoyed the music and the art. I did feel that sometimes the blocks youre supposed to jump on blended into the background ones.

The platforming controls well enough but I think the blocks blend too much into the background (to the extent that I felt the entire challenge of the game wasn't the lava but finding what blocks were jumpable against the background).

Enjoyable platformer. Took me a minute to realize you have to go around the edges to progress lol. Recommendations: Have the lava distance raise to me a minimum distance from the player so even if you get too far ahead, there's still pressure to keep rising. For the visibility issue another person mentioned, either make the platforms stand out for the background more, OR you can go further in on the visibility aspect and make the platforms be harder to see when looking away and easier to see when the player's light is shining on them.

Great concept--I found it a bit easy, but was pretty enjoyable to play. The way the tower rotated when you went around corners was really neat. The visibility on the block edges was a bit of an issue though--especially for the sloped blocks. It was still quite fun though!

@themixedmaster Thanks for the feedback. That's an interesting idea of making the miner's helmet light shows the blocks

I played it and enjoied but it is too easy I think. Simple arts and sounds. Your game is too simple in all aspects for 5 people team but if it's your first jam or smth like this its nice job!

I love the intense, fast-paced gameplay. The controls are very responsive, and it fits the theme perfectly. Overall, it's well done.
