As a little bit of geologist myself it was quite fun to see a game like this. Game is pretty good with arkanoid-style vibe but guess it could've been nice if it had some speed options since it was kinda slow by default.

Really cool one ! Snake drilling is an awesome take on the theme, making it my favourite drilling entry yet! The snappy movement is fine but i think you could make the world scrolling smooth to make it easier on the eyes..Great job!

Challenging and addictive!
Movement took a while to get used to and the item selection opens up different playing strategies nicely.

I wish I could use money gained from a run to upgrade my next run. But forget about that.
Good drilling game! I like how we are given upgrade option at the start of each run. I may need to play this game more often to learn how scoring works but I could get how to control the drill to collect some valuables.
I wish it would be easier to get fuel to extend my drilling time but this is good enough.

Congratulations to you for finishing your first game in pico 8 from a pico lover... I really liked your very literal interpretation of the theme and I think your UI is very cool... I think I didn't understand everything about the gameplay but I liked the intention
