Some remark: progress feels pretty slow. Expectation: there are more resources on the level or lower prices in shop.
Nice entry!
- The game was really nice
- I literally got addicted
The upgrade shop along with the powerups was a great addition.
It would be nice if I can see how many more upgrades of a certain type are left.
Overall great game, good job.
Getting the auto shovel was extremely satisfying, especially with ridiculous shovel sizes.
Good job.
(It's also probably just a personal problem but I had a lot of difficulty finding the shop button + realizing that money carried over between rounds because I assumed the title screen meant that the game was over, and that the shop button was a quit button)
One thing i'd add is input buffering on clicking: half of all clicks when spamming don't do anything, so if two fast clicks did two swings it would feel better.
The music change based on depth really kept me going though, and the upgrades made me replay even after completion, just to see how insane the power gets! Great job, y'all.
The music was great. I loved it that the music changes if you go deeper!
Great game!!!
