I made old gold part of the story and the main collectable :)

This game is incredibly charming! Got to stage 15 with a score of 6.4k (after many tries).

It is so fun to dig fast (and die young...). The diagonal movement wasn't something I expected to be possible. In general the movement is really great.

The later stages seem to get a bit laggy; maybe it's on my end.

Sometimes it felt a bit unfair to get out of a tile and while a bat (always the bats...) is going to my previous tile and then dying from it. A mode with a faster clock would be really fun!

Overall, this is a great entry to the jam! I've spent more than a few minutes digging around.

Crisp gameplay and v smooth mechanics, fun! Would have loved some music or sfx if you continue working on this in future!

Developer

Oh did music and sfx not work for you? I know sometimes audio won't play if your not focussed on the game, but it should be there!

This is pretty fun. It was a super simple game idea so it was made really well.

Developer

Thank you for playing! Last year my idea was way too big, so I wanted to keep it simple this time. There's a few things I didn't have time to add. So tried to polish all the basics :)

WOW! This is really well made and really feels like im playing a gameboy game! I got to stage 11, really like the difficulty scaling and art!

Great job :D
