That was awesome. I reached the gold city. I like stats concept in which we can distribute random modifications that affects everything in the run. Luckily I completed the game on my first attempt. I think it's because of the swag stat. 😎

Cool game, but for me really hard :(

Beautiful game (and game page to go alongside)

Feels clean and professional, like a game that is Steam-ready!

Great work!

A lot of polish that tends to go missing from game jam games, an intro with credits, a tutorial and a nice itch game page.  It starts out good :)

So sad that the stats did not save, what did the swag stat do!? I managed to reach the gold city but I died a couple of times. Thanks for the ability to respawn! I am impressed by how much content you did, different enemies with different attacks and animations, four regions with different art and characteristic and then some form of battle at the end! Also sound effects and music! It fits the theme aswell with mining of ore and reaching the golden city.  And the prerequisite is from the stat screen I assume. 

Some possible improvements:

Particles for when the enemies dies

Seeing the ore after breaking it as a pickup/same when you drop it

Deposit all ore in one go or atleast making it possible to click fast(it feels like I need to move out of a collider and then in again to be able to deposit ore)

The yellow mimic ore could run into the wall or maybe I hit it into the wall.

Sometimes I saw some black lines in the background, z fighting maybe?

Good job! Would be fun to try it out with the different stats!

Just tried the game, wasn't able to start the game after the stat assignment menu, did I miss anything? But I do like the animations in the menus.
