How does your game fit the theme?
The game is divided into two phases: the preparation phase and the storm phase.
The preparation phase is the calm, where the player mines and trades to prepare; before the storm comes and chaos happens.
Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
Yes (with some help from zapsplat.com for a few sound effects)

really cool and pretty difficult
i love the art and the gameplay
Love the little mole dude! Super fun gameplay elements and shooting the enemies felt really satisfying and impactful. Great work! Congrats and good luck!!
Wow, randomly generated areas and the ability to mine the blocks and build with them. So much going on here, really cool immersive game with a lot going on and a lot to explore. Fantastic job on this game!!
Pretty cool game. Fantastic graphics and amazing audio. But at first I didn't really know how to switch between using weapons though I think I got it afterwards? I'm not sure if the way I did it is the intended way but JUICY, AMAZING game either ways
Thank you! How did you end up doing it? You can use the scroll wheel or numbers 1-8 to switch between your hotbar slots
Wth i dont even know how I did it then... cuz I basically dragged whatever I want to use to a certain highlighted spot in the middle of the hotbar. And the thing is I didn't even touch the scroll wheel or numbers...
Ah yeah, you grabbed the item in the slot and replaced it with another item
Scroll wheel makes things much easier! I added it to the control list on the itch page, that was an oversight
Yep, adding it to the page definitely helps people like me lol
Really charming. Great visuals, game feel and sound effects. Looks super polished and profesional! I think It would improve with double jump or higher jump in general. There were times when I fall from the crystal and took half of the calm phase to get back because I couldn't reach the ground. Great game!
Thank you! I'm glad you liked it
If you look into the potions, you can actually get a permanent double jump and even a triple jump! I think this should help
Ooh I see. I will try it again then 💪
very nice game, would also like controller support :)
Awesome game! Nice work, I would love to see this extended and have controller support to keep playing it!
this game was super cute and fun, I loved the style and the music was so good!
This was adorable and really polished I loved this!
Phenomenal entry in every way. This truly blows everything out of the water
This is a Game Jam winner. Everything about this game is refined and full of personality. The game loop is fun, the graphics pop and are stylish, the music is banging, the sounds are booming, and the various systems are simple and easy to grasp. My favorite bits are the small details of onomatopoeias popping about from your every action. And the very idea of a mole with an SMG is extremely cool.
This game is the best I've seen, it's very polished, and it's a lot of fun too!
The artistic section is very careful, and together with the audio they complement each other very well.
Great Job! :D
Thank you very much! I'm glad you liked it
Really awesome, I was repeatedly yelling in my room to the enemies "Don't touch my crystal!" if that tells you anything haha.
Yay!! Godot!
Wish there was a category for "polish" as this game is absolutely outstanding in it, not that it's any more outstanding than the other categories. This might be the best game jam submission I've played so far. This wouldn't be so far away from a premium game title on Steam. Hope to see more from you!
I love the feeling of hitting! !! It’s so good that I wish the storm would come quickly. The character's movements are too smooth.. Good Job!
Thank you! If you don't feel like waiting for the storm, you can trade for a bed at the crystal and sleep in it to skip the preparation phase :)
Insanely good game all around! Crazy that you all managed to get all of this completed in a week. Good job!
Awesome game.
Hee-ho. Very cool. It's amazing you created it in just a week.
It should be illegal to have a game THIS polished. I'm loss for words. It doesn't help that you made almost everything yourself from scratch too! I can only wish to be as good as you in terms of game development in the future.
Kudos!
Very well polished with lots of options. Good Job!
