The shovel possesses consciousness and becomes the players partner. The shovel is the focus of the game, the story revolves around it and interacting with the shovel is neccessary to progress. The shovel judges the players actions which influences the power the shovel grants them.

I liked this grass!) cool idea, a shovel-spear is unusual
This was beautiful but I was unable to play it unfortunately. Every time my mouse moved it was incredibly sensitive so the screen would move really fast. It was probably just my pc, but this looked incredible. So well done!
Thank you for the comment. I guess I should have added a mouse sensitivity slider, I might do so in an update.
The game really does look good. It is pretty challenging to hit enemies, I think some kind of arrow pointer (cursor? shovel pointer?) would make it easier. Good job.
Thanks for your comment. You can hold down the left mouse button and it will show the shovel before it being thrown, it is then thrown in that direction when letting go of the mouse button :)
Beautiful ^^
There is now a gameplay video available to watch on the games itch.io page, if anyone's interested what the game looks like in action before giving it a try!
I did not get anything. But the graphics are pretty good. I hope the game did not work well due to the power of my PC, and not the built-in bitcoin miner (I found the graphics settings, they did not save me)
Thanks for the comment. I know it is not the best optimized game (I'm a graphics b**** xD) but I guarantee there's no bitcoin miner included, I wouldn't even know how to implement one.
The game runs fine on a low to mid-range (200$) gpu like an rx 6600. My rx 6600 manages to keep steady 60+ FPS on Balanced Graphics Settings at 1080p (the game shouldn't be too cpu heavy, therefore I'm only mentioning the gpu). I honestly expected it to run better on lower end devices, something like atleast 60+ FPS on Performant Graphics Setting at 720p, but it seems like that wasn't fully the case.
I'm sorry I didn't optimize it enough/offer enough settings for everyone to be able to properly play it.
