This game was surprisingly addictive. It's just simple enough to make you play a bit more risky and then get you wanting to top your high score! Great work!
FWIW, I liked the music you added :).
Move via shooting was surprising at first, but you lost your legs! Makes sense.
Took a little getting used to but afterwards, moving around made a bit more sense. It was a little difficult to move and then swing the weapon. And sometimes, hard to maneuver around to get to the right spot in order to break walls.
Overall, good job!
Cool idea! Quite challenging/stressful to try to visualize 3d minesweeper. I would've maybe skewed the game to be a little easer, e.g., Stephan would be a 3x3 or 4x4, just to get the player more used to the rules.
Great work overall!
Great work! The mechanic of diving and getting upgrades is pretty fun.
I think even some basic audio for immersion and feedback for pickups would go a long way!
Great job! Loved the art and great example of less is more and letting the player figure it out.
Great work! Was fun to keep exploring with each upgrade!
I liked the building/exploring and shooting mechanic. Pretty fun! Great work!
Nice and simple. Getting combos feels pretty satisfying!
The artwork and little particle effects are great.
Originally wanted the controls to feel a little tighter (less swimmy) but after getting used to it (and dashing around more) it all works together well!
Good job!
Really well rounded entry!
Really great job scoping everything. The little details like having the ear/face shake depending which you hit were nice. Gameplay is quick and makes you really want to finish all 5 levels. Just enough challenge :D. I enjoyed it a lot!!
Artwork was nice and moody. I liked the mix of mechanics.
I didn't realize you could double jump -- maybe introducing that explicitly in the intro would've been nice.
Overall, really nice work!
@jacky-chan , On level 2, the text briefly mentions that you have to clear all the squares (i.e. visit them all once). I definitely should've made level 2 "harder" in that you can't pass it until you actually digest that rule. As-is, it's too easy to just drag all 4 of those trucks and never get it.
Fun little puzzle game!
Never seen puzzlescript -- looks cool!
Great job on your first jam! Art and sfx are great! Short and sweet!
