Damn, this is one of my favourites so far! Looks good, sounds good, draws you in - it has it all. Liked the ending, too, the mood was perfect. It's not too hard to solve and didn't take long, which in my oppinion gives it the benefit of keeping the suspense instead of getting boring at some point. Really well done!

Thank you all for your feedback, we are working on a post LD version and are taking what all of you said into consideration. There will be checkpoints, the way down will be shorter and we will improve on other things aswell.
@54t4nmi5t There already is a dash, it is listed under 'Controls' and works by pressing the shift key.
Thank you guys for playing, rating and giving us feedback to improve! ^-^
The controls lack something... I'd like to be able to dig while jumping or something. Get a way back up to emeralds I missed - but I get that you're supposed to go deeper and not back up. Fighting the goblins is relatively easy, so you're basically stuck in the game digging and digging and digging without winning anything, really. That makes it grow a bit dull rather fast. But as you said, it's not finished. I still really liked the feel of it and it looks really good! Ran normal and bug-free for me. Nice job, keep it up and good luck with future projects!
This is one of the better ones, no doubt! It looks great, sounds great and runs super smoothly. Controls and physics are fun. Everything fits together very well to create a satisfying, atmospheric game. Well done!
It's creepy and gloomy and open to interpretation, I like it. It's relatively short (or maybe I'm doing something wrong?) but the atmosphere makes for a great experience. Art style looks good, suits the whole creepy vibe and I especially liked the audio. (Also, I'm curious... who or what is SHE? Guess we won't find out before the void swallows us whole :p) Cool submission!
I thought it was a bit too easy in the beginning... like you could just spam ammo into the sky and keep turning the cannon around. It would fire lots and lots of bullets EVERYWHERE and reduce any real danger. Played like this for quite a while and even when meteors would become more that 'tactic' kinda did the job, with the need to eventually actually aim at some. When I grew a bit bored of that I wanted to find out what would happen if you get hit and that's when the actual game began. Maybe a short but effective cooldown for shooting would help? Other than that it was really smooth, looked great and had nice audio :) All in all a nice submission, good job!
Wow, great job! This is one of my favourite entries so far! Everything played really nicely together, the art, the music, the dark atmosphere, the topic. Really nailed the theme with this one, too! It's not hard or complicated at all, really rather simple, but still entertains a lot. I made it to day 23! :D
Really cool design, I like that the goblins have a lot of variety in how they look. It's not just the same punching bag all the time. Also the sound effects are a success! As pointed out in the descriptions, the controls are a bit whacky, but it's definitely playable once you get used to it. You really nailed the theme, too. All in all a pretty good game, I had lots of fun :)
I liked the music a lot, it fit the game perfectly! It's easy and intuitive control-wise but still challenging, also in my opinion it has great replayability. What would make the experience a bit better would be HP drops or maybe even slow regeneration. The many enemies make for great pressure and I get that if it was easy it wouldn't be as much fun, but a little 'help' would be cool. Maybe I'm just a noob, though :p Overall it's really well-made, I had a lot of fun playing!
After taking a picture of the window the game hung up on me :( Couldn't move anymore and nothing helped. When I tried a second time it gave me a photo album right before I could get to that same window, so I didn't get to explore everything. Dunno if I just don't get it or it's a bug. Other than that it was pretty cool. Music was nice and the art was beautiful... the muted colors and the fading memorabilia... had a great atmosphere!
Awesome! I'm a big Dune fan, loved this little game! Graphics were simple, but in a good way. Audio was nice, not confusing or overdone. It was easy to learn but "hard to master", took me a few runs to collect enough spice to justify extraction before being eaten by the worm. Great entry!
Super fun entry! I love the art and the audio and the concept is cool, too. It has some amount of replayability in the sense that you want to beat your score, but unfortunately it gets boring quicker than it should because there's no real variation in the mechanics, it's just drag & drop with the only difficulty being to spot the right characters. Nevertheless I had fun with it for a while and consider it one of the stronger entries!
@manan There is a card called "Deadshroom" that sets adjacent fallow tiles back to usable, it states the effect on the card. You could also grow "Corpseflowers" next to them, but that doesn't clear them.
Looks and feels great! Loved the audio and mood it set, too. I enjoyed playing, although after a while I started to wonder what the goal really was, as I didn't realise how to beat the game until I stumbled upon the exit by chance. Also I feel like it could use a little balancing, it was quite simple to just dig, plant stuff along the way while looking for altars. No real issues like getting lost or running out of spores/water/nectar. Still a really fun entry, thanks! :)
