Press space (or down) to dig.
Arrow keys (or WASD) to move and jump.
Z or X to plant bombs (after collecting them)
The goal of the game is to go down as far as possible. The baddies can dig, so be wary of getting beneath them. You can jump on their heads, but they can also jump on yours.
The diamonds have no purpose other than looking pretty. I would have liked to introduce a little shopkeeper, but perhaps a little too ambitious.
The bombs can kill the baddies, but they aren't really very effective. I've found them to be most useful in aiding movement.
If you want a speed challenge, try spamming all 3 alternate dig keys separately (Space, down and S). You will progress (and die) very quickly, but it's kinda fun.
