Nice and cool take of risk. Combining minesweeper and escaping maze.

What a cool take on minesweeper. I managed to beat beginner. Love the twist and tile surprises. Great job! 

Submitted

well i am happy being on the 9th in the leaderboard, having multiple difficulites was really cool as i went into the beginner mood and learned how to play there there was nothing to critisize but to maybe a small hint on either sides to explain what each thing does like diving glasses, i know it shows the path but sometimes it shows me the path multiple times, overall it was a great game and i managed to beat the expert mode, also consider the screen size for the expert mode as i had to zoom out in my browser to be able to see and play, great submission a 10/10 game and implemented the risk element very well.

Unfortunately I'm awful at minesweeper, and this is probably the 3rd time I've played one in my life, so I feel like I'm not best to comment about the game itself, but I love the art and visuals!

well that a unique Twist, its pretty fun Game. sound effect is sound nice. could add more juices. overall its not a bad game.  i think you should add auto scroll when you get to the bottom of the level on intermediate Difficulty, cause i have to zoom out my Web in order to look what happen beneath.

Really good game, It's truly unique.

Thrilled to see another puzzle game submission!

Minesweeper feels different when your trying to punch through to a particular coordinate.  Definitely felt the theme when deciding whether or not to stick with the logically safe path or whether the odds were good enough for me to just YOLO.  Also felt pretty nice to do the work getting to the goggles and then having god mod on for the rest of the run.

I really only ran into two barriers as far as immersion goes.  First, the point and click felt a bit slow for me.  Having a keyboard map to the 8-way navigation would make it a lot quicker to skedaddle around.  The only other issue I had was in not being able to read the number directly under the character when I step into a new square.  I'm not sure what the best solution for this problem is.  Maybe dropping the alpha on the character sprite if it is on another non-empty spot?

In any case, I had fun.  Pretty cool that you got a global leaderboard up and running too.  Good job!

Really cool game, love the unique take on minesweeper.

I'm a bit biased as a huge minesweeper enjoyer but this was great! The powerups, the risk-reward system, and the bug that follows you are all really cool and unique twists on the original. This is great.

This is so complete and organized! Like the idea of being able to walk in a mine sweeper, feels immersive.

10/10 I'd love it if you made this game into a mobile game someday :)

Developer

Thanks for playing, glad you liked it. While its not a mobile app, I have designed it to play i mobile browser. There are some bugs with the scaling still, but I will update it after the jam.

I spend tooo many hours playing minesweeper, Love this take on the game and the implementation of the theme

Great Work.

Developer

Nice to hear from a minesweeper pro :) Played and rated your game. I forgot to say that a mix i d-size could be a fun addition. Thanks for the feedback.

I am very bad at minesweeper but the visuals and gameplays are great! I don't think I've seen anything like this. And putting bonus items on ambiguous points is a really clever way to fit the risk/reward theme. I do think that the only problem would be anyone who's good at base minesweeper will find it too easy. But that's just my speculation. Nice work.

Developer

Thanks a lot for the detailed feedback. Played and rated yours.
