I loved the game and thought it was a fun race to the bottom in the best way possible! For me it wasn't obvious that the bar on the right was how far Larry was until I got half way through but that did add a level to the game where I felt like I needed to be quick and efficient when getting to the final treasure. Also, minor thing but still worth noting was nothing prompted me to hit "Z" for the large treasure and the other treasures you see all are just picked up so I assumed the game bugged out at first. Still, my things are minor and this is something you should be proud of!

This is a very nice game. I think it would've been cool if our opponent could interact with us. Good job!

this is a fun idea! the art in general is really polished, the sprites and the sound work.

it's missing some stuff and we can place as many bombs as we want XD I tried playing without the bombs and the balancing felt really off. the first  shops are expensive and gives a feeling that we are not making progress and that larry really is just better than us :((

Neat and simple! Would have loved some real interactions with the person we're supposed to be racing, but I guess that wasn't in the cards. Great work!

fun art, love that the controls are showed in the game itself. good sound design i like especially the rock hitting sound effect :D  the shopkeepers look is very fitting. only thing i would say is unclear is the combat system, is there one?

The game looks really good, sadly there seem to be some things missing, i was able to just spam bombs even tough i had none, and when i reached the end there was no interaction with the chest. But i really like the concept of having to race to the finish and upgrading along the way!

I liked the game, it's simple but well done

Had fun playing this game, and managed to get to the treasure before my arch nemesis Larry did, so had a good time! The digging mechanic is fun, well done on this game jam entry :)
