super fun to play wow diddn't expect that. nice solid clean game I was very impressed. Would love to see where this could go really reMineded me of another game I cant remember however. If there was some more variation and more to do this will turn out to be a solid game of this genre in any ones collection. Thanks so much!

Thanks, I really appreciate it! Is the game you're thinking of titled "Motherlode"? A friend of mine told me about it (I hadn't heard of it beforehand) and wow yeah it's pretty much the same concept. Regardless, glad you liked it!

Brilliant work - really had me captivated! There is definitely a shortage of something like this! Hope you build it out more :)

Thought this was great, to be honest. Very satisfactory scaling with each upgrade, the concept was simple and straightforward, and overall I found myself very much enjoying the time I spent playing! The ending gave me a good giggle and I must thank you for that, and congratulations on your first game!! If this is what your first is like, I can't encourage you enough to keep at it!

Cool nice mining game. Has potential for more. Would be cool when you could increase the difficulty.

This was fun and ran smooth, i was thinking this reminded me of DigDug and then I saw the baddies and smiled.  I couldnt figure out how to do the upgrades and maybe i cant?  seems others have gotten further than me and I'm probably missing something.  I may just need more instructions.

I'm so happy someone got the ref, you have no idea haha. Thanks for playing! Glad you enjoyed it.

Neat game. Was a little abrupt when I would die from a mine but I guess that’s the miner’s life! Upgrades took awhile to get to but worth it. Nice job!

Great game! First few I played didn't realize you had to go down.

Really enjoyable, well done. 

I had quite a few, just one more try moments.

Great submission

Fun little digging game. Reminds me of "Galactic Mining Corp". Took a little bit of time to get upgrades, but was addictive enough for me to keep playing.  I found the cat!!  Could definitely see this being expanded out into a bigger game. Really nice work!

That was pretty fun! I didnt exactly understand the last red room, however getting to that point was really fun. The upgrades felt really expensive until I realized I needed to dig down not left and right. Great work!

Thank you! Yeah, what I meant in the game description by scuffed was mostly that area where i didnt have time to make something interesting, it was just a tunnel of mines that lead to a png of a cat that finishes the game when you touch it. Glad you liked it though!

Awesome for a first game. The controls worked as expected and I didn't have any issues. Killing enemies was very difficult. The mines go off way early, so upgrades are definitely needed to escape without being killed also. I only escaped once lol. Over all a good solid game. I enjoyed it. It could definitely use music and a few more animations, but for a first game it was great.
