tysm! (I worked on this with zlee4 and one other)

No ending--the goal is just to get as many points as possible before dying. The point is that it's supposed to get riskier as you go on and tempt you to gamble going deeper. Unfortunately, some bugs and not enough time spent balancing mean that it's a lot harder to die than intended c:

Really enjoyed watching you play and super happy you enjoyed it! We could have really benefitted from including more explicit instructions and description of the mechanics haha

haha yeah, so the round threshold is supposed to be the number of points you need to bank in a round to get your buffer life back. It doubles every day so the risk was meant to go up over time, limiting the length of runs. Unfortunately it's a lot harder to die than intended so it's not very obvious what's going on, and we also neglected to have much instruction in the game c:

thank you! We had a lot of visions including things you could dig up that started minigames. Unfortunately we ended up not having time for that and spent a lot of time just implementing items, which also meant not much time going in to making the game well-balanced and actually fun (I think there are some bugs with curses not being as common as they should be, so it's a lot harder to die than intended). Definitely could have benefitted from a smaller streamlined set of items and curses that interacted well and were less opaque/confusing. 

  all the sounds were recorded by one of our teammates with a shovel in their yard which was pretty peak, so development time well spent

really exciting to hear c:

looking forward to anything you do next!

super cool game!

I really loved learning to use two hands on the arrow keys to navigate. It felt like i was rewiring my brain. thank you sylvie

o.o

when you

pop

this is a very good game, thank you

Great game! I was a puppy dog c:

the amount of things you can do with the one mechanic is really cool. I'd love to see more and more challenging levels with the same mechanic!
