Mining trouble by Anti

made by Anti for LD29 (COMPO)

This is my first ludum dare entry. I have to say it was pretty fun. I had a lot of other things going on so I could not work on the game as much as I wanted to. I'm also a horrible artist. Any feedback would be great, even if you hate it! :)

There is a problem with your build it's crashing all the time. When I used help and when I tried to mine it crashes.

This seemed like a pretty neat game but sadely it crashes for me everytime I mine the mineral ore. It seems like it might be the sound crashing it or something. Could just be my computer, hope you find a fix if not!

My OS just in case: Windows 8 64bit

It took quite some time to mine and the mining process wasn't really fun. It was a very cute game however.

Write how to control below the Game and there are too many monsters. But mining is cool :D.

Unfortunately the game keeps crashing on me when I try to mine the minerals but I got to try out the combat at least. Neat game, well done for your first LD!

Couldn't figure out how to get minerals, loved how the combat works though!

Died before I got the sentry gun. :( Nice concept. The help page was confusing: small list of the used keys would have been enough.

I don't know what is causing the crashes. I myself had problem with my anti-virus so that could be something. Can't seem to find anything in the code that causes the crashing(Not so much you can do in GameMaker). But thanks for the feedback anyway!

Trying to play the game this end and it keeps crashing very much repeatedly sadly. Can't get too far, it's a shame, it seemed pretty interesting :(

Does the game give any error messages or does it just not respond? Me and my friends dont have any problem with it so I really don't know what is causing the crashes.
