Took me some time to figure out how mining work, I think I'm stupid
Neat idea! I missed the instruction on pressing 1-6 at first and was so confused why I couldn't mine, once I figured that out though I got decently far, fun game!
Surprisingly fun! I did have a bit of trouble at first, but got the hang of it quickly. very cool game, i like how you use the number keys to go down!
I do love me some games that are quite easy to figure out, but also let you screw yourself over just as easily by sheer arrogance.
I really, really like this one a lot! Nice one. c:
Nice one! Played it a few times :D
cool game, nice take on the theme
Loved it, nice combination of RNG and skill
very cool
Clever use of the theme
As THE Itch.io critic, I gave this game 5 STARS, as the game does an incredible job blending RNG with skill while utilizing the game jam's theme better than any of the other games I have tried so far. The excitement from not knowing which column will flash next and also keeping an eye on the pickaxe charge up is unmatched! This game is incredibly unique, and I will most definitely be playing this game in the future whenever I feel like doing something thrilling! My review should be taken as the words of a master in the space, and as said master, I declare this game absolutely positively amazing!
no way THE itch critic is commenting on my game🫨🫨 this is the best day of my life🥹
I loved it!
I like this! Sick submission
once i got the hang of it I actually enjoyed it a lo
My high score is 11 (i know I'm bad at this game.) but i like the artstyle. 10/10 game!
ourch my ears
Got 87m first try, very stressful and more strategic than I anticipated! Awesome game!
love to see it
Cool idea, I like it (even if the pickaxe isn’t working)
it’s a little confusing, I admit I didn’t explain it well, but if/when you don’t push a number/ column down, you’ll partially charge the pickaxe, which can be used with down arrow when charged.
Super fun idea, excelent pixel art, and pretty entertaining, couldn't ask for more honeslty.
This was very fun, though it felt a little too random sometimes.
I think, I suck at this game. The music is very impressive for being made in a browser app, I like the risk reward aspect of pressing the columns vs charging pickaxe, but it did end up being a little RNG at times.
