The game is incredible. Congratulations!
Thank you! Just curious - which weapon did you prefer?
you made this over a weekend?!?!! so polished! very well done!
also, I love the name, made me click instantly.
Glad you enjoyed it! The name is a reference to the Bond movie. I imagine if James Bond got old, he would pilot such a Rover with Q providing the machine, weapons, communication, and M talking how important those Diamonds are.
Rated 5/5
Really cool game, well done! Love the mechanics.
Thank you for playing, which enemy did you like better?
i love it man
Thank you for playing! Which was your favorite weapon?
i like laser beam
Really fun! A great combination of action, strategy, and tactics. The ability to upgrade your "trips" is really neat and adds an extra layer to everything.
The only thing is I would make it more clear when the crystals become depleted!
Yea... with all the rush, i just added an image of a diamond on screen going from red to white like a progress bar. I know it is not a perfect solution, but with the energy I had at that moment it was the only thing possible. Thank you for the feedback!
Very smooth gameplay. The overall speed of the rover was a bit slow for me - maybe that could be an upgrade in the future? otherwise, I liked the upgrade system and core loop. Graphics are really nice and well put together (Earth Office is charming). And the cannon s design is great - I like that it doesn't shoot in a straight line and that you have to upgrade to that.
Yep, the more diamonds you gather, the slower your rover gets. I was planing on making an upgrade for the rover speed, but unfortunately didn't have the time. I will add them after the jam. Nevermind... thanks for playing and for the kind words. Btw did you try the laser beam weapon?
Yes The effect is really cool! Call me a dwarf, but I prefer the bombs :D
wow... really cool! But I am glad I did two weapons, because I am getting different opinions from different players. Apparently it was well worth the invested time.
Darn bees coming after me!! loved the feel it did make me like bam bam bam! good tension and the lazer weapons is my fav! endless key spamming! got stuck in the mud as well! intentional or not i liked it! Definetly will play more and check out the upgrades!
Thank you for playing! I am glad you enjoyed it! Yea the level was build in a hurry(time is always against us in a game jam), so you could get stuck in different places and there are a lot of flowers and trees just flying in the air. Will figure something out after the game jam.
definetly do cause i got beef with the bees! lovely game will play it again later tonight to check out upgrades!
I so badly wanted to kill the big bad guy with the shield. Even with maxed bomb weapon didn't succeed lol. Cool game idea with the mining/collecting and upgrading. Nicely done. Enjoyed it.
Thank you for the feedback. I am really glad you enjoyed it. Did you notice that when the shield is activated, more enemies appear around the statue? You have to kill'em all to remove the shield. :)
ya, I noticed groups spawning when I started drilling. Must've probably left a bee or so alive and that's why the shield stayed up. He was chasing me the entire map, so may have missed an enemy at the other side. thanks lol
Thanks again! if I had more time I would make some kind of closed environment for the boss fight, but ah time is always against us. Will think of something for future update after the game jam. Again, thanks for playing!
Hi! I've played it, and it's so amazing for solo dev can build this with such as complex and well built like this. But if I can give feedback, this game would much easier to learn if deliver with camera top down style (I imagining top down view like Deep Rock Galactic Survivors). Overall this game it's well made, especially solo dev, so yeah good job.
Thanks for the feedback. The top down camera is a great suggestion. I figured it out during playtest that the top down camera was an better option. Unfortunately didn't have time to try it out. It was either that or tutorial and decided to do a tutorial.
I love the title scene! Fun game!
Heh, it was a fun little touch but I now think it is the best part of the game. Thank you!
