The idea isn't new, but I like that you can't only dig in four directions, but anywhere wou want. Only problem is that it runs horrible on my laptop. I don't think an Intel HD 4000 is made for gaming, but this game isn't very AAA and it really should run!

An interesting twist on the usual stuff.

Haha, this is awesome. I love the music and the feel to digging. I think some animations of the ground disappearing would have made a world of difference to the feel of the game.

A little bit more control would be nice but it's still not to bad/

It feel quite pleasing when it "rams" on turning. Nice one.

Need infinity falling game. It was pretty fun the whole time, but it was hard to tell the difference between water and slime so I ended up dying for reasons I couldn't tell until afterwards. Nonetheless, good game.

I was not expecting the fact that you can not dig up ! The concept is nice, and well executed. It just lacks water/lava physics to be perfect ! The music is quite catchy too.

I'd like to have this drill in Starbound or Terraria :)

I like the concept and mechanic, just wish it would escalate in difficulty quicker :)

seen a lot of drilling games but i like that this once moves quite quickly, would be good if it started off more challenging though. quite like the player sprite :)

This is a cool, new twist on a (kinda) old concept :)
I love the music! :D

Reasonably fun. I like how you've used the vignette to give longer range visibility of threats - it's sort of like a radar, without requiring any extra UI. I would have liked some type of extra special move that could grab gems that I barely missed - like a rapid horizontal left/right drilling move with a recharge time applied to it.

Nice game. The controls are a bit irritating because the driller shakes so much on it's own.
The ideas with gems, lava, water, health packs are really good. The music is also well cosen.
Nice innovative idea!

Congratulations for finishing your game! The title screen says "beware of slime", but it didn't seem like anything happened.

The music was pretty cool, but the controls were a bit slippery.

Your game needs some more noises: I think drilling noises for breaking the stone would make the game much more exciting :-D
