itch.io

Im not sure how the Diamond pickaxe is unlocked, I completed everything in the game aside from unlocking it within a day or so, its a very cute and entertaining use of a day.

I also encountered a minor bug on the browser version of the game, when wearing the crystal circlet and afking for a little to scroll the comments, I found when id scrolled up that the effect from the headgear had "overlapped" many times and it dropped the framerate immensely until I refreshed the page.

Making games is really hard, and making one that balances progression and entertainment with a rougelike mechanic is even harder, especially in later game. this one did a very good job so congratulations ^^ 

I really liked the Variety and gameplay changes between each character, some creative twists on the simple mechanics really did shake things up, Fern and Griddle really stand out as their quirks completely changed the method you'd approach the digging and the preferred gear. 

one thing that would be nice to see, from a completionism point of view at least, would be more achievements for tasks done, such as unlocking all the characters then headgear/tools/upgrades etc- not a necessity but as it stands the achievement tab only having two achievements is underutilising the mechanism.

another thing, it took me scrolling through the comments to realise how to unlock Nix, maybe I'm slow but it wasn't clear that Quartz doesn't spawn in that zone (maybe because the zones before it gets dark around the ice level all have Quartz, so I assumed it spawned and I couldn't see it?) so I kept doing multiple runs searching for it to spawn. 

did not work, this application is malware to my pc..

Can't uninstall.

Hey I downloaded this before realising that my monitor runs at the wrong aspect ratio (Can't fix this belive me ive tried) so the birds and plants clip through my windows.

I uninstalled it like you would a normal software and it's still here, ive looked through my files and its gone like I deleted it but I still have birds and plants. this is rather annoying and id like to know how I can fix this.

This Game.

Im emotional maybe because I went through things like this less than a year ago, a different cause but universal experiences, the exhaustion- things just being too hard to do, the dismissive doctors, people telling you that it's all in your head and you look fine, not being able to go to school, losing your friends.

I went back to school but didn't have that happy ending, I wished a lot for a supportive parent and friends that didn't drift apart, but sometimes life just doesn't have those happy endings, y'know?

learning that you'll have a condition for the rest of your life, like a man with a knife standing in the middle of the room, you know he's there, you just need to accomidate for him and walk around, theres nothing you can do about him but you know he's dangerous.

rarely in life will you get that end, but I think a good equivilent is just to step back when things are going well, and take that moment to appriciate that hay, that man is still there, but the decor on this room is great!

(that wasn't the best allegory)
