cool typing game

The first typing game I see in this jam. It is a lot more fun than I expected. The game starts getting pretty hard as I get deeper, the deepest I got was 53. The rock and the pickaxe created an interesting gameplay loop. When you are running out of time you use pickaxe to clear out a path, to gather pickaxe, you have to take a further path. Then your time starts running out again. This is very interesting. Good Job.

If you have time, please take a look at my game, thank you.

Cool game, well done!

Really well made i didn't understand it at first but i learned it very quick! Great Job!

Nice idea for this original game. It works well. Use the next time you make a game a background sound, and a upgrade system for how many words you had digged. But overall a solid game.

Well done!

Though not very intuitive for me at the start, it's a really entertaining and satisfying game to play for a little while! A very interesting take on the jam theme, though a bit hard to get on the first few tries.
