Love it! Reminds me of Motherload. Really fun loop going from mining to being the giant worm. Would like to see this expanded into a larger title!

Short fast arcade game with short fast mining game. I like it! The drill buried in the worm's head is frightening/hilarious. Nice transition to it from the worm phase.

It's been mentioned, but the game loop is great, real addicting. It feels complex (in a good way) which is so impressive given you only had a week. The idea of mining in the worm's brain is great, and I loved the art of the brain room especially. Super fun game, well done!

Hee-ho. Cool gameplay and idea. Thank you

Really good game loop, very addicting. I would genuinely a full version of this, especially if it was on mobile. The art is very good in some places, and kind of not there in others, but that's understandable. I can think of a thousand things to add to this game, so I hope you do flesh it out. Very good entry, congrats!

I really enjoyed the game loop, I found myself playing it multiple times! The music was very charming, as well as the graphics, very fun art style :)

Didn't expect it to be that addictive :D was really fun and I like the idea of having two games in one

Submitted(+1)

2 games in one :).

I got worried in the mining section as I didn't realize you could double./tripple/ infinite jump :P to get out of the hole I was digging myself into.

controlling the worm was more tricky then expected, but I finally got the hang of it.

great job :)

Really enjoyable overall, a well-made game!

Concept was pretty good, but the difficulty spike got insane REALLY FAST and the UI could use some work.

Okay, this was definitely one of my favorite, if not my favorite submission so far, I really enjoyed this game. I think it was a cool idea/concept stemming from the Game Jam's theme, and it just felt really intriguing when I was exploring the inside of the worm. I would love to see more of this game fleshed out! Great submission <3

wow, that got hard FAST! Well done!

I love this game! I'd like to see more

Good game. I think the waves should be longer between mining. Mining reminds me of Terraria :)

Submitted(+1)

Awesome game!, I like the concept and the game mechanic, it's super fun controlling the worm . I wish to see the full version of the game

I love the concept. The game is a bit short though, but overall it's perfect. It really captures the theme.

Really fun game that totally matches the theme. The worm's phase is a bit short but it was still fun to play !
