DorfSlinger

Looks like the LD embedded version isn't working- I'm seeing

>Failed to read the 'serviceWorker' property from 'Navigator': Service worker is disabled because the context is sandboxed and lacks the 'allow-same-origin' flag.

However, I was able to play it on itch. I think you could make things a bit more springy/juicy with the firing mechanic, right now it feels very rigid. The art is nice, but having menus on-theme would go a long way. Overall, nice work getting this done in 48 hours!

I played it for half an hour, really amusing, and intuitive gameplay.

@yossarian Riight I tested in Firefox and forgot about Chrome+LDJam+Godot quirk. Thanks for playing!

@d-omino Thanks!

Very fun experience. It's fun how character become unstoppable after several hard runs)

The way how my characters digs... It feels relaxing.

I found some treasure :sunglasses:

Really cool idea to have an incremental game like this where you carve out the stage as you go! The pixel art is great, I like the Dorf sprite in particular. I think having the font and UI panels in the same style as the game sprites could help tie everything together visually.

Really fun game. I really needed just a simple and satisfying game where I don't have to think too much for a change of pace, thanks!
As for feedback, the early game lacks some more control of your dwarf to go in different directions. And the dwarf slows down too fast. I mostly just went straight down like a brick. Some more bouncy physics would have probably been more fun to play around with.

So, i became the dorf king, twice :D
Like the game, simple but good and a good amount of time used to play throu, great work.

Start is real slow, but once the upgrades kicked in its a lot of fun!

@sam-minh @bridgeonastick thanks for playing! Indeed beginning is kinda slow and limited and also depends on starting generation, I should improve that.

@thoastbot twice congratulations! I realized very late that there is no limit for that.

I played for almost an hour, I had many failed throws, poor dorf, also the song reminds some psychodelic songs that I listened here in Brazil I liked a lot

I... am just a little speechless. The homemade clarinet soundtrack, Dorf spinning two pickaxes at the roughly the same rotational rate as a quasar, hidden gold statues, a strange dude with a crank-powered sling. This was game was many things, and I found it to be a real delight.

Very fun game! Pickaxe upgrade to get rid of those previously indestructible rocks was very satisfying!

Great game, simple mechanic but hugely addictive!.

Wow, this was actually a lot of fun playing! Took me a while to get the treasure though. Good entry!

Interesting idea for the theme, I liked the plenty of upgrade options too. Nice work!

Very addictive, GG!

Excellent little entry! The presentation feels extremely "classic LudumDare" and is very charming. (I love the music especially.) I liked figuring out all the mechanics and puzzling out how to make progress, and stumbling upon the end goal was a lot of fun. The control system of the slinger is well presentated, and a nice way to do it instead of the classic "click and drag" style I've seen before. Also, the way that Dorf himself bounces off of things, while the pickaxes do the actual digging, is an interesting touch which makes the game kind of pachinko-esque. (I also looove the spinning duel wield pickaxes...) Lots of great stuff, good work! :D

I am Dorf King!

Very enjoyable! :smile: Upgrade mechanics are so fun.

This was charming, funny, and addictive! I was hoping that I could get through the last layer with strong enough tools, but only broke one or two blocks. Going left was harder than going right because it sent him feet first.

Cool game, the music is very fitting. Some of the upgrades were a bit confusing and felt like I need to stash my money so I can get them but I can see why this was done. I think for a compo entry its a pretty solid game, works well, nice vibe music and matches the theme, I think its pretty impresive game done in only 48 hours!

Absolutely excellent. Simple but effective. I had a smile on my face the whole time.

Ama Dearf King now!

Veri nice idea, so much original and fun, good entry!
