Got good at dodging the boulders after my first death, but was disappointed to find they often landed in places that were inconvenient for my digging, especially when environmental manipulation is such a fun mechanic! So I got bored and tried to find a way through the mountains, which I did and jumped off the end of the world. I just wish there was more to do, or a clearer way to find more things to do

@risk4bisk Thanks for the feedback! I'm disappointed with how the game turned out also. I had to work everyday of the jam. This was all I could get done.

@Kovakomes Hey, same thing with my game. Even ended up making a bunch of assets that we never got a chance to implement, but I'm happy with everything I learned from. I hope you learned a lot too, environmental manipulation is tough! Don't let the time limit discourage you!

Fun for a bit, but it didn't keep my attention for very long. I can imagine something even more fun coming from this idea.

I spammed right click for about five seconds and actually laughed out loud. I had fun covering myself in obstructions and then trying to jump my way out. Animations are really nice, but definitely needs more substance.

Not very finished but it did get a great laugh out of me, not a game I would play for a second time but 100% a game I would make a friend play once to see his reaction as well, and the controls are surprisingly solid, feels great to walk around and jump, perhaps this could be some kind of puzzle plataformer where you need to dig sometimes to progress but this happens when you dig? I'd like that, anyway, great work, it has very cool potential and was very funny!

Once I figured out how to not die despite being disobedient, I had some fun trying to make shapes on the ground and see how far I could get a boulder to move after landing.

At first I was thinking, "What am I supposed to be doing?" but then ten minutes later I stopped and thought to myself "What am I doing with my life?". Despite its lack of content it still kept my simple brain entertained. Thank you for making this.

@spice-cabinet To dig or not to dig? That...is the question. The rules say no digging, but you're curious. So you dig anyway.

Best no digging simulation ever!

Oh my, so that's why you shouldn't dig....

I love this little troll game! It did unfocus the mouse lock and refocus it anytime I dug, so I couldn't move the camera when digging otherwise I would be a sitting duck. Other than that it's a bug-free game.

These screensnips @aaranos and I have would make some pretty great desktop backgrounds.

@nikolaj but...the rules...no digging...

You're absolutely right though. Shame on me for not letting people dig bigger holes.

@peace-of-cake-games Hmm that's a bug I was too lazy to fix, but if it increases the chance of killing the player...yup it's a feature now.

Oh, and you also win the game :clap: :clap: :clap:

I did it !! I dig like a crazy machine while hundreds of rocks lag my computer haha!! Very cool little game.

Amazing work! :heart:

The basic controls and rules work well. But it need a deeper mechanic to make a rellay better game. Good job anyway, making something is the goal and you probably learn some stuff.

I totally understand being rushed, last jam was rough on my team haha, funny idea and was nice to see you take the game into a different direction, made it unique, I would add to it and it would feel like a fun polished game :)

Dig it.

Not the best game at this stage, but it's fun for a bit and the idea is great, I think you can improve on that.

Overall a cool and fun little game, good job.

Very silly! Almost would have preferred a game that dig have digging, but there was a certain kind of... comfort in definitely not digging at all, no way, nope.

Nice job!
