I didn't understand why I was going up in the air at first, but I was pleasantly surprised! Simple but effective, the menu animation when collecting loot is super cool!
And here i was wondering what the game had to do with depths, i had a huge smile on my face when i realized the gameplay loop :) and then after a very good attempt, i was surprised for a 2nd time when my ball transformed into a drill! super super fun concept. i love the little squash n stretch on the ball, and both the buildup and digging part feel satisfying in their own way. seriously well done!
It's so fun! I love the concept of the game divided in two parts and the transition between these two phases is interesting. It's a good use of the theme. And the menu text with your points is also really cool.
Player until i got to diamonds. It was lagging a bit (probably loading some resources) on the first landing, but then it went smooth. The glitches that threw me up 15 levels immediately was the most fun 😆 (i assume it is a bug with changing jumps during level transition exploding the velocity).
Great interpretation of the theme! I love the amount of game feel juice you've added, with the satisfying tally-up animation and the drill transformation once you've reached a certain height. Certain screens felt a bit unfair since I was placed in a spot that had no platform underneath me and fell instantly, but it's cool that the game presents this as a completion rather than a failure.
Wow, that game surprised me when the ball fell down and started digging, I just assumed it was bouncy ball on a platform, I thought that was really cool! One tiny bit is that I found the font on the digging summary modal a bit hard to read but other than that I really liked it! Well done!
Really fits the theme, great job! I had to stop my self because i'm at work, but i could see myself playing this for a while just getting frustrated that i'm not good enough haha. While the SFX are atmospheric, I personally think some tunes would be nice. Still, a great game.
The double gamedesign is so cool, the first part can be addictive and the second goes soooo fast. Misses a little music here, but the sfx are good and the graphics fits well. It's a nice game great job! =)
So juicy and satisfying! Failed my first run so early I was a bit confused, but once that drill came out on my next run I got a big smile on my face. Excellent!
Very fun play! I'm terrible at making arcade-type games like this, so I appreciate good ones all the more. My face totally lit up when I hit the double mechanic at the end of my first run. Only critique is that the best runs feel a bit arbitrary, like I'm suddenly shooting up twenty levels and feeling great, but I can't replicate it or do it from skill, so the joy of it wears off after a bit. Still, love that the levels change as you get higher. My last run I saw slanted platforms and one started moving after I landed on it, so I imagine without the level skip mechanic, and possibly with some hand crafted runs in addition to these more randomly generated levels, this game would be fun to try and master.
Fun gameplay and well done design, you did a good job with increasing difficulty and introducing new challenges the higher the player gets. The ball turning into a drill is also really cool! I managed to go up to 115957pts!
So fun and so polished! The feeling of the ball is super smooth, it felt really great to play! Loved the take on the theme, it's super fun to reward the defeat, losing is anti-frustrating, first time I see this kind of mecanic!
