This is a game that me and my friends made over the weekend. I was responsible for the coding and they for other things (see credits in game). It is very unoptimized, but we all managed to run it fine. The code is also the most messy that I have ever written in my entire life. Anyway, it's our attempt at our first LD game ever. Hope you get some enjoyment out of it! :D

IMPORTANT: Requires the latest version of Java. If you are unable to run the game, upgrade Java here: http://www.java.com/

EDIT: Added a Java 7 compiled version. Please let me know if that works better for you guys! <3

I'm having the same problem. Using java version 1.7.0_67.

Unable to run using the most up to date version of Java. :(

I managed to play it, it was fun. I got a score of 17. Nice graphics as well.

649! That's a pretty killer score you got there!
(I only managed 49.)
Nice, simply fun. I dig it!

Nice work, but why did you leave out most of the voting categories? I can only vote on audio and humor...

CosyCave8 Dec 2014, 23:28

It seems to require Java 8. I upgraded from java 7 to 8 and it works. You've only marked Audio and Humor and judging categories. Was that intentional? I'll wait for an answer before I rate the game. It looks nice.

Sorry, that was my fault. Going to edit everything straight away. Thank you everyone for playing! =D

Oh, and that 649 score took me like half an hour to achieve. Just sayin'...

I really like the that you included a working leader board. Great graphics and a pretty fun game.

Awesome font!

I've got 78. Hint: it's easier to move around with left hand, and dig with right. I like this game.

I thought it was great. I scored 15. This game makes me really want to buy a mechanical keyboard.

Tired my hand out.

OK, now I remember, why I dread winter sometimes. All that snooow...
Cute game though, especially since at the moment I actually miss snow - it's raining outside and that's pretty anticlimactic before Christmas.
