I had a great time! Unfortunately it seems like the game has a tendency to freeze sometimes and softlock you. I was having a great run and then the game just....became unresponsive. Sad, the gameplay is very enjoyable.

Hi, "COOL" here, I currently hold the first place high score for this game. I really liked this game. I like how the game cycles through the rainbow based on your depth. I added a rainbow cycle effect to my game but removed it last minute out of fear that that would break the rules for the jam. Anyway I really liked this game. I am interested in how you made the world generate like that. I also like how chunks of the ground dynamically break off and fall. my only issue with this game is that once you upgrade the digger enough, you can just hold S and D to move down and to the right in a perfect diagonal line forever and you basically no longer have to play the game. I just kept moving in a diagonal line without even looking at the screen and that is how I was able to make it that far. To fix this, you could add random things underground that instantly kill you if you touch them, or make it so that your health does not auto-regenerate by itself. or nerf the auto digger, or make it so that fog that kills you also comes in from the right side of the screen. Anyway I really liked this game and got really exited when I got 2nd place and then 1st place. It's also cool that you made a scoreboard for your game. I also liked the music. Of course I am giving this one all 25 stars. I spent more time playing this game than any of the other games in the jam. Great game. Also sorry but my account is glitched and it makes it so that the text in all of my comments is really big for some reason. Good day people. 😎😎😎

Wow the shaders effects are way better than my simple 1-Bit filter.

I love the musing reacting to your distance from death ! And when you got deeper it feel sooo claustrophobic !

The lava seem a bit unfair, but it add a little challenge.

Great Game !

First, Nice, the control is a little weird.

You could say I really dig this.
Fun and polished, gameplay loop works. Going deeper for leaderboard glory is dangerously additing.

Great job.

Very fun and satisfying game! Great job! I did encounter one bug where it froze at 193m, not sure what caused it.

INCREDIBLY FUN AND ADDICTING BUT CRAZY LAG

Pretty fun game made it to around 430 depth after a few decent runs, I think if their was even more upgrades of various types to help dig in new ways, this would be even better!

This was fun and addicting!
