Hi Sylvanu, thanks for entering Potato Miner! in AI Browser Game Jam 5! Unfortunately we've had to disqualify it because its itch page was created on or before October 5, before the jam started. The jam rules allow continuing an existing project only if the majority of the submission is new content made during the jam (October 17 to 31). If we got this wrong, or most of the game really was made during the jam, just reply and let us know and we'll be happy to put it back in.

My bad, didn't catch that rule! you are right that it was made before the jam, so the disqualification makes sense. Thanks for running the event and good luck to all the participants!

Good game, really liked it, the music and the gameplay itself, also the mechanics and leveling are done at a high level

Full touch controls (stick, drag-to-aim, on-screen DRILL/dash/console buttons) plus co-op is a lot to ship in a jam, and the code clearly works hard not to drop held keys or stuck input.


One small bug, checked on the live web build: the two-tap NEW GAME arm survives a trip into Settings. With a save, tap NEW GAME once (it turns red, WIPE SAVE? TAP AGAIN), open SETTINGS, CLOSE SETTINGS, and the button is still armed; one more tap wipes the save and starts a fresh run (banked ore and run time back to 0). Pause has the same shape: RESTART RUN, then SETTINGS and back, and one tap restarts. The red label does still show, so it isn't silent, but someone who backed out to Settings may well have changed their mind. In handleShellButton the 'settings' and 'pact' branches clear resetArmed but not newRunArmed or restartArmed; clearing those two there (or on any other button press) would fix both.
