So, I have enough for tuition, but the game won't let me pay it. Other than that, the game is great.

Interesting game! I didn't know that you need the fuel to get back up so I had to restart the game. I think there might be a better solution for that... Anyway good job, I like games like this!
The game was solid. I like figuring out the optimal way to dig so that I can get as much money and also have enough to get back up. Good job!
I like the idea, but unfortunately I couldn't finish the game because I kept running out of fuel and I don't think the reset button was working. Congrats on completing your first game :)
OK so I didn't "win" but look at this:

I was two blocks too low but I had enough for the tuition XD
I liked the humor in the game. I realized just now that I had it muted so I can't give input on sound. Nice first game overall. Keep trying at it!
Nice one! Its fun to explore and find super moves (holding down while moving left or right) but as others, I ran out of gas, anyway I reach the bottom I gues
I would love this game, but Its really annoying that you cant get up ones your fuel runs out, If you'd fix that, I would like this game so much
Really good game- and quite funny. It's a humorous take on the theme, which makes it that bit more original! Though I had issue with returning to the surface.
This was surprisingly fun to play. Loved the humor at the start of the game! Well done for making such a good first game!
Please do check out our game too.
Gave it my best shot but couldn't get back to the top after I'd collected all that money. Wish I could regen fuel, or the store was available to me down there.
