Would have loved to see the map layout change, if only between difficulties.  Digging down is slower than sideways, which is a subtle touch to stop people from just trying to drill down forever."},{"author_name":"Jacic","author_uid":"5267","time":"Aug 23, 2011 @ 2:45am","epoch":1314067200,"text":"Very fun game!

Nevertheless, a nice little game.

Maybe some special blocks that required obtaining a certain item to break. I think some sound effects would have really made the digging mechanic more fun to use."},{"author_name":"matthias_zarzecki","author_uid":"3880","time":"Aug 25, 2011 @ 10:15am","epoch":1314267000,"text":"So... I escape the lava by going deeper in the earth, close to lava?\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Neat. And Panicky :-)\r<br\/>\r<br\/>I also suspected you could just dig yourself in a high corner and sit it out. Nope.
