Bomb Miner!

Hey man, the screenshots look really cool, but when I click the link to the itch page it brings up a 404 Error. You might need to go back and check that the link is working properly!

@secretjuice thank you for pointing that out! fixed it :smile:

No problem! I just finished giving it a go. It's a really sleek and polished take on minesweeper. I would say though that I didn't see too many differences mechanically between this and normal minesweeper other than the coins you collected occasionally. The presence of the coins didn't really influence my desision-making ingame because they were hidden from the player until collected. You've got a strong foundation though, and it was still an enjoyable time!

Hey, great game, a bit hard to get a good start though as i am used to the rules of the traditional minesweeper, but a great idea and adaptation of the old game. Im legit impressed. Great work

My mine)
Not bad!

Quite an innovative game :P

Love the concept of this game. Keep up the good work :). Texture wise is awesome

a simple but great game!!! i kept tripping myself up because i kept thinking about 8 directions, and the 4 directions makes it a pretty interesting take

i also really like the system about coins. good job :>

My record is 15 score, although random coins seem pointless. Too much guessing, and even if it's correct, it still usually doesn't resolve problems

It's a juicy version of minesweeper! Good work. Took me 2 try to notice that the number is for 4 directions. Just a random thought, it may be interesting to experiment with other variants, like using hexagons and other tiling patterns.

nothin better than the classics

Cool idea to take a classic game and try to change up the rules. It's well-implemented and easy to understand. I did find that not including the diagonals in the count led to much more frequent situations where I just had to guess than in normal minesweeper. And the inability to dig outside the revealed area led to situations where I was almost entirely contained by a wall of bombs I couldn't get past.

I found I was often quickly stuck with nothing to do but guess, which makes for a pretty unsatisfying ending - changing things up a bit to give you more information or a number of wrong moves would maybe help a lot.

Nice to see another game that pulls in some Minesweeper mechanics =).

Visuals were nice and simple, but have some style, I like it!
