Pretty neat game! Usually I'm not a fan of turn-based puzzlers, but the cute graphics and premise sold it to me. I loved the fact that you can sacrifice the shovel in order to go through holes, very inventive and original! I accidentally manage to cheat my way though by pressing alt to manipulate the slimes :P
I really love the game, it looks and plays great. Simple yet creative and makes you want to improve every time you play it. 1 little thing to look out for in the future - the size of the game itself doesn't match the size of the viewport on game page - it's smaller and isn't centered when you launch it.

To Get HerThere are so many things to love about this game, from the perfect implementation of the theme and the special object, to the clever and simple way of the tutorial text boxes, the cute artstyle, and the complex puzzles, which can be brute forced or perfectly solved! One of my favorite games of this jam!
I love it ! I even had a "owwww" when i first join the pupyy. Use of the shovel to make bridge is clever use of the shovel and the different puzzle worked well. Make me think about Baba is you in a way. Very great job here !!

Les Copains d'ArnoldIncredibly well done. Easy 5 stars. Great art, music and SFX. The puzzles were fun and challenging. Really well done. So far my favorite of the jam.

The CollapseNice puzzle game, would love to have the minimum moves for each level.
GG for the double use of the shovel (dig and bridge), banger idea

Shovel GolfFun puzzle game! I like the mechanic when you have to leave your shovel behind to advance. Also love the doggo's idle animation! 🐶

Together We DigThe sprites are very pretty. The music is so chill. The gameplay is enticing. I did not immediately understand what to do, but in fact everything is obvious. When the heroine used the shovel as a bridge over the pit, I went nuts. Very creative. Finished game, addictive gameplay, cool. The complexity is really high, or I just got tired of fatigue after the jam) By the way, the heroine is very similar to Cadence from the Crypt of the NestroDancher. Is this a reference?
