I liked the game and everything with it quite a bit. One note, I wasn't quite sure what my character was? Not exactly a bad thing though haha Was it a watermelon? That's what it looked like so if it was then good job with that haha I mentioned this on another game that was somewhat similar to this, but one thing that would add a lot would be some sort of upgrade system. Maybe you collect the coins or whatever and spend them after each game over. You could get a better pickaxe, more time, things like that.
