the game has a good mechanic if you worked on for a bit more time it'll make the game better

Nice entry. One annoying part was, when I talked with and NPC and pressed Esc.... A tutorial would be nice. Liked the artstyle. 

Submitted

The environment is very nice and the game play seems fun. Although the only thing I can figure out to do is talking to the NPC.

Submitted

I really appreciate the graphs, however, I can't do anything but interact with the npcs. Despite it, it seems to be a good game when finished. Good job here! Keep improving!

Thank you for your kind words!

This was my first game jam and I was participating by myself so i got a bit overwhelmed with the workload in tight timeframe and it seems that i should have prioritized how-to and game mechanic visibility(ie. more apparent progress in tile braking) more.

In next jam I'll do better :D

No one has finished a game here hahaha and your game is really beautiful, I can't wait to see how far you and your game could go! Congrats!

i like that asset it looks very good with other stufs

the gameplay is good and i enjoyed it

Submitted

I really like the assets you used.  Unfortunately I dont know what to do. Is it possible to collect enough stones, finish the quest and buy tools?

Developer

Hello,

Yes, you can collect the minerals to complete quests

My mini youtube video shows basic gameplay, you dig and collect minerals and get quests from the cowboy. He pays you and you can get upgrades from the alien like storekeep. For next jam game i'll take time to create a simple how-to section as the game seems to be a bit confusing to get going without it.


Thanks for your input

The graphic is really good but gameplay is confusing :)

those char sprite is cute i really like the art style of the game. Just add some cool background and its surely will even cooler ;)

Developer

Thanks :D

Most of the graphics were CC0 from opengameart.org

I was working alone and not best with 2D graphics so i had to resort open source stuff but managed to find great graphics for this use.


Thank you for your comment!

Hi, thanks for your comment.

Apparently my info of controls was bad, I'll try to redo them more in depth.

I'll take note of the goods value point


Thanks
