In Drill Digger, you control a little drill looking for treasures deeper and deeper into the earth. To control the drill, use the left and right arrow keys or the a and d keys.
After all these years I still don't know to avoid explosives, lol. The constant wobble of everything felt a bit weird, but it's a very straight forward easy to understand game which is a big bonus imo. Too often in jams games I have no idea what I'm supposed to do but this one was rather intuitive.
I wish the movement speed of the drill and the background was synchronized (some sort of inverse kinematics), the current result feels quite "floaty", it's hard to get a sense for getting deeper, because there's no steady reference points.
Who keeps planting these explosives and what do they have against me? But seriously, the game is straightforward, but a bit simplistic. It's a too easy to dodge completely static obstacles, so the game probably needs something a little more to stay engaging. I also noticed that the player drifts slowly off the top of the screen the more you play, which is probably a bug.
