Mole Vault offers a delightfully quirky twist on vertical platformers. You play as a pole-vaulting mole, bouncing through a treacherous mineshaft in pursuit of hidden treasures. The art style is charming, and the mole's sound effects are adorably fitting. The concept is both unique and entertaining, providing a fresh take on the 'built to scale' theme.
However, the game has room for improvement. The choppy animations make precise jumps challenging, especially for platforming noobs like me. While the core gameplay is engaging, the music doesn't quite match the whimsical nature of the game. I know this is subjective, but a more playful soundtrack could enhance the overall experience. Despite these minor setbacks, Mole Vault shows great promise a gave me a good laugh. With some refinement to the movement mechanics and audio, this underground adventure could truly shine as a standout indie platformer.
