Nice I like that you don't actually kill in the game. That's quite unique! The graphics could be a bit better but the gameplay is nice! Gave you a nice rating! If you like to check out our game too! :)

Thanks for playing! I'll check your game out!

Hiii! I really liked the concept of your game. I like the assets too :) But I think the player has to be able to move while you swing the pickaxe. That way you can still dodge bullets as you mine. Otherwise, the mining takes too long and you can't make the game harder without it being impossible. I think the game has potential!! Great  job putting together a nice game for the jam!

Developer

Thank you for playing! I've been updating the game based on feedback and improved both movement speed and mining speed, I'm hoping that remedies the issue!

This is such a unique take on the bullet hell theme. I really think with more polish and added mechanics and fleshed out environments that this concept could go somewhere. The music definitely got a bit droning after a bit. I loved the interactive menu/hub.

Super creative! Had fun! 

Developer

Thanks for playing, I'm glad you enjoyed!

I loved surviving the spaceship's lasers while mining goods for selling!
you can make the game a bit faster and more challenging which will help it a lot

overall simple game yet a genius concept keep up mait!

Thank you! Yeah I've been getting a lot of feedback to speed things up, I'll def need to add a faster updated version when the jam is up!

Nice concept of having your goal be something other than killing the enemies, but still needing to dodge their bullets. There's prob a better way to arrange the goals so that dying isn't the way to move forward to the next stage, as that felt like a weird way to "win" lol

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! Yeah, I get what you mean. I considered adding a way to escape the moon after mining for a bonus, but decided to keep it simple with letting you try to survive as long as possible. Maybe if I update I'll add that feature in!

Fun game to play and overall enjoyed it. Kind of wish that after losing you didn't end up quitting the application and was able to have a gameplay loop from that, but overall I really enjoyed it and you did a great job with it!

Thank you!
