Lava Miner by AlexaCol

[raw]
made by AlexaCol for LD34 (JAM)
The game is about a miner that dug into hell by accident, now you need to survive by squashing the monsters and not touching the lava.
Controls: you control your character by using the A and D buttons.

Goal: Don't touch the lava floor. As the game progresses less enemies will spawn so you'll need to start saving enemies.
When the flaming enemies reach their spawn again they will be destroyed.
When they reach the other spawn they will grow.

The game might have resizing problems so I'm sorry in advance for that.
1152x648 windowed works the best from what I've tested.

Funny little game! Looks good and feels good, but the bigger enemies actually make it easier...

Gotta squash em all right? ;)
Got to say that the game was quite easy after I realized you can wall hang infinite amount of time, waiting for new enemies to appear.
Nice game overall!

Yes I should have noticed the wallhang but it was a school night so I'm happy that I even managed to finish the game :D !

The miner reminds me of a mister man. Also love how he came prepared with a lava proof pogo stick. Thats a fellow who has everything...
