I loved how simple the inputs are, but the actual mechanic is actually pretty challenging. Very fun!

At first the randomness of which column is selected felt unfair, but then I got the strategy of setting up situations where it does not matter which column goes down. Suprisingly deep! (harhar)

It´s really well made made, but it's not for me. I like gameplay and how you move the miner, but in other hand the flashes are random, because of this are occasions where i don't press the key but only because i don´t needed, a cool thing i think it's reduce the time of next flash a little if you press the keys, this put more strategy in charge or not charge the pickaxe or continue to move down.

Very interesting concept! I think you need to develop it further, add modifiers and more ways to control the situation.

I got down to 50 meters! The game was fun, but definitely annoying just getting screwed by RNG like that. Also, the music had some beepy clicking sounds that were kind of hurting my ears a little bit, same with some of the sound design. 
Still, cool idea! I liked it!

Once you get the hang of it it's a really fun little puzzle game. Good job!
