Ghostmine
After a failed magical expirement, you and your magically magical ghost attracting magic tower are warped into a dark cave full of spiders and other deadly things.
One of the spiders said there's a rumor around these caves: that you can hear a gigantic, scary monster screaming at midnight. But spiders can't talk, so I wouldn't put any trust towards that.

Most things are explained in the game, but in case I missed something or you'd like to look at it here:
* WASD/Arrow Keys - Move
* Left Click - Order (Mine / Pickup / Repair) or Place
* Right Click - Sword Attack
* Q - Open Building Window
* E - Open Research Window
* 1, 2, 3 - Healing, Stun, Fire Spell

Lots of content, only problem was some of it wasn't so self explanatory (I guess each well = +1 ghost, and there's no 4th of 5th item to unlock?)
Also the boss had too much hp, I mean.. I managed to glitch him into a position where he couldn't hurt me and he still fucking annihilated me. Especially when combat was such a non-part of the game because you could just right click the spiders and didn't even need to cast for the vast majority of the game, to throw that on me was hard.
Also uhh.. I'd been researching something other than barriers at the beginning. Then I found lava. Then I was like SHIT SHIT SHIT. Luckily it was far enough away from the base that I threw all my money into it and I researched it in time. Then I was like.. fuck, I need money to actually build this too, ran off, very very luckily still made it out.
Managed to research everything by building round the backs of walls.
Also it seemed like torches were unnecessary? If I built far enough it would light up anyway. OR WORST CASE SCENARIO BUILD INTO SOME LAVA AMIRITE.
But yeah, I can imagine what with the pathfinding, the mining system, the progression, level design etc. that this would've been a pretty ram packed jam for you, you did a good job.
Audio I found at the beginning felt a bit ":D :D :D" when I was expecting a sombre cavernous exploration tone but whatever.
Theme, I mean.. it's a room, the theme sucks, we all know this.
Oh also, and I'm sure you know this already, but my ghosts kept getting stuck and I would have to get themselves to mine themselves out of the walls, but overall it felt fair and balanced (except for boss) and I had fun with it.

Good job ! There is a lot a content. But I did not understand what exactly the goal is...
The torch are useless I think, because when we break a wall, we have vision on and around the place where it was.
Keep creating games !

Lots of things to explore! It did take some time to get what I was doing. Great job on getting so much content in the game in such little time!
Well done!
Well done!

Nice little game. I just didn't get how the research works, but it's ok. A nice basis for a good rpg. :)

Very cool, and pretty fun! Good entry. Boss fight seemed a bit tough.
