Game which I can spend hours on. Resource management is well thought , moles have nice personalities and perks.

The game have great potential to extend above game jam and become a full fledged mole hill tycoon.

Amazing work, I have lots of blast playing it! It also fit the theme quite well!

absolute wow! one of the best i've played so far in this jam. the visuals, the audio, the gameplay, everything felt really really good together! 

i guess my only tiny suggestion for improvement would be about the scrolling up and down that becomes a little tedious when you reach lower and lower underground, so maybe add an actual scroller you can drag with your mouse to move the screen faster? or a "back to top" button, or something along those lines? 

had a very good time with this one, really fell into it! won on day 69.


also, moles respecting each other's pronouns is cool moles! :)

Thank you for such kind words!!

I definitely appreciate the feedback. I didn't get to playtest the late game until the very end (when will I ever learn this lesson 😅), so I didn't really notice the tediousness of scrolling up and down so much until it was far too late to really change it. A scroller or a mini-map or something to quickly jump around is a great idea! I'll have to test out something like that in the next build. 🤔


Congrats on your win! Thank you for playing through, I'm very glad you liked it! 😊

Had to play a fellow mole based game. :) Fantastic entry, it took a long time, but I was able to erect the monument! Loved the mole art, and the little descriptions each one had.

Great job!!

Thank you so much for the review, and congratulations on erecting the monument! 
We have a number of ideas we plan on adding after the Game Jam (Including different factions, and Quests for certain depths!) so we hope you can check it out then! :) 
Sidenote: I plan on checking out your game later this week! Mole games have to stick together haha
