Description

Drill your way to the root before running out of sugar! Borrowing heavily from Mr Driller , Once upon a time... Life and true and painful present events.

How to play

Menu

* Any key to continue. Full screen is recommended on web releases.

In-game

* Arrow keys to move. You can climb one tile by pressing and holding left/right against the "step" for a while.
* Space to drill.
* ESCAPE to reset.
* Once you've reached the end hit ESC to replay the game. If you've died wait for a few seconds and press any key to go back to the main menu.
* M or 0 will mute the sound.

Tech

* Haxeflixel (+ FlashDevelop). I'm also using a disjoint set implementation for Haxe found @ https://gist.github.com/danielcmessias/077923850776d454415c
* Photoshop
* Jfxr, Chiptone.
* The font used on the main screen is Gwibble by vin @ http://www.1001fonts.com/gwibble-font.html
