How does your game meet GBJam's theme
It's a mining game all about collecting gold!!

I like the use of dithering. At first I thought the gold pieces were enemies that would damage me, so I kept trying to avoid them. Classic platformer brain lol.
And as others have said, great title! Overall it feels more like a polished demo than a full game, which is totally understandable with the jam time limit.
I’d be interested to see where you take it from here. What’s here already feels really solid. I was very happy to play this on hardware, bonus points to gameboy soul!
This screen here looks like it's out a classic megaman boss load screen.
Thanks so much! I’m always hyped to see how things look on legit hardware, thanks for sharing the photo.
I'll tell you right now, the terrible pun in the title is the reason I selected this one. .... more in a few, after I've actually played it. :D
Pretty short and not even remotely difficult (other than sometimes getting stuck on ladders). I got 123 ounces of gold and cleared the mine!
It gets an extra point for The Void, actually (especially the little "bonus level" at the end). You still got further in your game than I did in mine, so points for that, too!
Got stuck on a ladder for longer than I care to admit :D But that mine done gone got cleared.
i cleared out the entire mine before i discovered the void. was really emotionally impactful, thanks for sharing. good job making this game, you can be proud.
Finding the Void where you talk about the aspirations you had for this game was not something I expected to encounter.
Good game! The art is beaultiful, soundtrack good too
I like the art! But if you press left/right while on the ladder, you shouldn't fall down. It would feel better if you stuck to it until reaching the surface
I agree, the ladders don’t feel great. I still have a lot to learn about GB Studio’s platformer engine.
nice little game. good pixel art :) i cleaned all the mine
lol there was not supposed to be that much available 😆 GREAT JOB
Interesting color pallette

Cleared the mine. Was a mood, even though it's unfinished? I do like the music and the sprites. Good job!
I appreciate the feedback. If you want to see some of the assets I had to cut, you can always check out the VOID by walking left on the opening screen.
