Secret Simon jam comments

Things I liked: I thought the voice clips were very cool additions to the game and your game definitely had a lot of very good "feel" to it. Mining felt fun to do, and gave good block feedback when hit. There was not a moment in your game where I wasn't immensely amused by everything going on. Things that could be better: Your box colliders could use a bit more work, I found myself falling into the cracks quite a few times. In addition, you should consider having the controls be displayed on the main screen as well. As soon as I left the menu, if I wanted to go back to the start I would need to restart the whole game. Overall I got to say I was pleasantly amused as soon as the game started and I greatly enjoyed the experience. For the first game I have played this jam this is off to a great start!

Fun concept and it plays really well! The pixel art is nice and the audio made me laugh :D

My only suggestion is that maybe mouse controls would have been better than using IJKL for digging, i.e. you could just click on the block you want to dig. I think that would feel more natural, unless you were planning on adding controller support and using dual sticks?

We tried mouse controls and didn't think they were the best so we tried IJKL, I think if we had more time we would of added the option.

Thanks for the review!
