Something about this game just works for me, I really enjoyed it overall. Nice art and music. Trying to balance getting upgrades and meeting the amounts required by the deadline was a nice touch. Finding a way back out of the mines you had dug was also an interesting challenge. Good job!

Thanks so much for playing!

nice concept, the inputs can be inconsistent. And there should be some sort of effect increase to purchase that allows access to more durable blocks. Some more animation sprites could help. A solid start to what could be an interesting game.

A cool and fun concept. Digging upgrading making progress is a fine loop. There is always the feeling that what pops up on the screen motivates the player to change course. What I found to be rather difficult was the airbourne controls. Sometimes I shot up walls wasting no stamina at all and other times I felt like I couldnt crawl at all. Waiting for stamina when you dig straigth down and try to get back up is really frustrating. Stone is OP, Iron is UP.  I would love to see an upgrade that increases the stamina regneration rate. Overall very stable game!

it's a good game, simple, yet satisfying, I like mining. a change I would make though, is make the shop screen not cover the money amount

The game looks great, simple gameplay, awesome design a music. I like how chill is the gameplay. This is something very unique and specific, I think this is the first and only game with this theme, very good job! Keep up with the good work

Relaxing and cozy lil game, the progression is also pretty nice. Not too tedious, not too easy. Just the right amount of grind. Good job!

Cute and oddly cozy despite the debt/time limit

The bombs felt a lil unpredictable/difficult to use (they always seem to bounce off of the block I actually want to blow up lol)

Would love to see this expanded w/ more upgrades to keep the game engaging

A cool little spin on the Minecraft digging sim

10/10 would dig up things to sell them to have my money taken away from me again
