Feels good but there is some stuff that could be better. Great game otherwise!

How does the game fit the theme?
This game is focused on a crazy miner throwing grenades in enclosed spaces at monsters and flying via the explosion's shockwave. What could possibly go wrong?
What code and assets did you not make from scratch during the jam (if any)?
Everything was created during the jam except for the bomb sprite (I made it for a previous project) and the cave enviroment, which is made up of default Unity sprites (squares, hexagons, etc).

Others have mentioned that there are some polish things that could be done, but the premise is fun! Reminds me of rocket jumping, which I love.

Creature FeaturesActually a fun game,
sometimes those bomb jumps felt a bit random, so that is something to investigate, I once got a whole red bar and not died, which is cool but I don't if intentional or a bug.
But still I love the hat flip, I love jumping and throwing bombs, overall a really cool idea :3

SpellcraftThanks for the feedback! I'll look into the bombs bug you mentioned. As for the health bar, it is comprised of a green bar starting off being fully filled across a red bar. Sometimes, the green bar will shrink to the point that only the border is left, which blends I to the red. I meant to fix it, but it completely slipped my mind 😅
I like the style, fun game.
as feedback, :
- may be take more time to polish your game. The base idea is pretty cool but a little more juicy and it can be awsome !
- add more feedback, sometime it's hard to read what happen
But it"s a cool game good job team !

Can't LoseFun mechanics I like going around throwing grenades and bobing around the map as a miner, level difficulty is also pretty balance. At the start I keep bombing myself then i keep dying and I'm like huh then I walk pass the text of don't get hit by your bombs then I'm like oh. My own critique is like for the enemy projectile is a so small and hard to notice sometimes.

FoxVenture (Brackeys Jam)The bomb mechanic made this game easily 10x better. Loved the idea. The visuals were really sweet and simple too like the hat spinning. I only wish the music was a bit less repetitive, but great job overall!

Factory FlawI always appreciate a good bomb jump mechanic, and the flipping hat animation made me happy. Overall, I think this is a great concept, nice work!

SECRET LIZARD SPEED DATINGThe bombs felt nice to throw and the graphics gave the game a lot of character. The flying mechanic was well executed. It would be helpful if the bomb had a visual radius so the player could get a feel for when they would take damage. The level progression was nice and the map design led to some fun moments. I enjoyed the music too. I loved the players hat flip animation. Great submission!

Sunny StreetQuite a fun game! I didn't have enough dynamics, but I liked flying away from the bombs. However, I died several times trying to take off :D
