I love the art style and the game mechanics. A full potential to be a proper published game. Love the upgrade systems and the planning of how to use the invincibility.

Love the 2.5D style. The environment has a cool vibe and the game loop is fun!!
The 2.5D pixel art looks really good, it gives the game a strong identity right away and just feels nice to look at. The sound design is also super satisfying, it really adds weight to everything and makes the whole experience more immersive. Saw people mentioning how polished and addictive it feels, and I can totally see that, it’s easy to get hooked even with the slower pacing at times . Would really appreciate it if you could rate my game too
Nice game and super polished!
I played for ages.
Good Job and Good luck in the Jam.
Very fun to play! I really enjoyed the game loop, I also love the environments and sound design/progression. Feels very polished and well planned. The only thing I wish was if the player could get a little further without dying so often early on, other than that top notch!
Love the artstyle, its absolutely beautiful! Are you planning to make this a full release?
I appreciate it! We're hoping to get enough positive feedback to warrant a full release. We'll at least work on it for one more future update and see how the reception is outside of the gamejam.
Gonna try your game out soon and leave some feedback! Look out for feedback from my partner const0 since my itch account is getting restricted for commenting too much.
I really enjoyed it. Really good game, I’ll definitely check it out in future updates! As previously said, please make movement a bit faster :D
I think the overall vibe of this game was really good! I liked how it was first person so it made me feel like I was going through the stages personally. I think this would be a good VR game actually! The only mechanic I wish would be less tedious was the coin gathering in the corridors. It's a nice source of money so I wish it was more convenient to see and gather. Besides that, I can see this actually becoming a full Steam game!
The shaky camera, the quirky art, the creative implement of invincibility, the procedurally generated dungeon, omg I love your game. There's almost no nitpicking I can give for you at all! I guess the game needs more music though but other than that it's awesome! Brilliant work, you guys! Bravo!
I really enjoyed this a ton. I know you've already heard this from others but my only real wish was that I could move a bit faster because waiting in between rooms adds up time quickly and I am an impatient person, it would also be nice to have more music but the sound effects are perfect, I liked the tink tink sound when mining a lot. Its such a vibe though truly loved it.
From mining to combat to upgrading the perks everything feels delicious, very good in all aspects, solid entry
Absolutely loved this game, one of my favorites so far! The aesthetics are brilliant, the controls easy and straightforward without feeling gimmicky, the audio relaxing and not too overbearing AND I LOVE THE POV, it feels like I'm in a theatre if that makes sense... I really want to beat this game so I shall be coming back to it. Splendid job!

Damn this game is so polished, definitely feels like I'm playing a full game already. Art is beautiful and gameplay loop feels fresh and even after like 10 minutes of play I can see myself playing for way longer! Very cool game and good luck int he rest of the jam!
My goodness your game is addictive. I just beat it after playing for ~1h straight. You have a real potential for something great here (although it is already pretty great). The loop is addictive and the reward system feels so good. Congratulation, I can see you winning the jam easily.
My only grasp is the lack of art for the lightning attack and some pacing issues but great job to you two !
This feels so good to play! Very good progression, sound design and juice overall
Really enjoyed it a lot! I played for way too long 😅 but had to leave it at after starting in room 10.
Maybe for the next jam make progression a little faster?
With that said, I could sit for hours playing this if I had the time
