As others have said, I wish there was a tutorial or an easier section at first. This game seems like it has a lot of depth! It's just difficult to figure out how to properly lead your miners. I upgraded them and yet they still all died. Also my game broke when i got to the highscore table. I couldn't input my name and I couldn't exit. Otherwise the visuals and music are awesome, I just wish there was more direction and perhaps less complexity at the start of the game.

Thank you so much for your feedback. About the bugs, this one... "I couldn't input my name" I have no idea why :( . And this one "I couldn't exit" I forgot to make the exit button call the exit function :doh:

About some comments: "I upgraded them and yet they still all died" they suppose to die anyway, upgrading them is gambling, that's why figuring out how the curse is killing your miners is so important, this way you don't lose one without your planing. And finally "As others have said, I wish there was a tutorial or an easier section at first" probably should do both, a smaller section with some text guiding the player trough it and then the actual game would be perfect!

I really like the style. Sound and art are on point for such a short time.

But, as others have said, I dont know how to play. I know that a tutorial is super hard to develop and I dont expect it in a gamejam game. Not an ingame tutorial anyway. But please, just put a txt file with your project or explain on your itch page. It was really hard to tell what way going on. I fell for the same trap too for my first game, so I dont blame you. Just a heads up for next time. Good luck

Yah, I tried to make a too complex game, which is not just hard to make a tutorial for it but it also consumes a lot of time and effort to do

It has a lot of potential, but you need a tutorial! It seems to be fun.

Developer

My thanks dude, I wish we had more time so I could make a tutorial :P

Nice art and sound design, but sadly I have no idea what you're supposed to do.

A quick tutorial, maybe even on this page could've helped this game a lot.

Developer

That's sad :<
Yog-Sothoth will not be pleased with you, sir! You suppose to make enough money for the collecting of Yog-Sothoth to do so you can upgrade your mine and your miners. Thanks for your feedback men!
