I cannot tell if i'm just really really bad at this or if this game is super hard for some reason? XD
I think it's very cute and i love the concept and everything! and I powered through until i hit the bottom anyway, but i spent a lot of time not getting anywhere because i just couldn't find the materials i needed? i'm still stuck not able to get the omnishard because i can't find any emeralds for example... I may come back later to try to 100% it but hey at least i reached the bottom for now!
Thanks so much for playing and for the kind words!
Material spawns sometimes take a bit of luck, so it's best to play at a relaxed pace whenever you're in the mood for something casual. If it helps, emeralds only spawn in the Stone zone and inside treasure chests, so you should only focus on those 2 sources. Also, congrats on reaching water!
