Blast Miner by TopperVideoGames

[raw]
made by TopperVideoGames for Ludum Dare 48 (COMPO)

Made for Ludum Dare 48, theme: Deeper and Deeper.

Match up pairs of bombs to blow up ground!

Use A and D to move the bomb dropper, and SPACE to drop!

You move down with every chain of explosions, so line up longer chains to blow up more ground at once!

See how deep you can go!

Bombs do not blow up other kinds of bombs, and bombs will fall first before exploding.

Did not figure out what the best combo was. I didn't get deep :) enough.

Nice game, I did have a hard time getting very deep, but did figure out that stacking was an option.
Nice job :thumbsup:

Was a little confused at first which side they dropped from so I might suggest flipping it vertical with the next on the bottom. But even though I never got too deep, I enjoyed the game nice work!

Simple puzzle game interpretation of the theme, I like where you were planning on going but could do with some polished graphics and more mechanics, and a quick tutorial in the menu would be appreciated. Overall, has potential.

it seems too simple of a game that either it's impossible to beat or it's got a perfect strategy. From what I see it's immpossible to beat. Think about how you can give and take power to the player and maybe vary the explosion shapes of the given bombs. You should also add some particles and sounds when things blow up

Really neat idea for a puzzle game (I like how this is kinda the reverse of most puzzle games)! Unfortunately, I was not able to pull off any chain reactions. I think it could be cool to have some explosives already placed in the game, that way you can inform the player how one is pulled off.

A masterpiece of Tetris and Bejeweled combined with some bugs.

Good job!
