Super impressive with the hexes, looks and sounds beautiful! I found it very difficult to predict what was going to happen with bits of terrain falling and died a lot.

I really appreciated having to tap twice to dig through a block because A.) it saved me from bad decisions and bad key presses and B.) it made it feel like digging. I expected to play a lot of this game, but I never got all that far because I was having trouble understanding the rules for why blocks fell or not. Sometimes it seemed like there was a more than enough connections left and they still fell, or a chunk broke from a weak connection off screen. I, personally, would have preferred either more or less minesweeper-esque decision-making.\n\nI also enjoyed the dramatic change between the surface visual and the underground. I would have loved to see more changes, but maybe I just didn't get that far.","format":"md","likes":1,"spam":"N"},{"id":671717,"author_name":"Piopio Juegos","author_uid":"piopio-juegos","epoch":1619693034,"text":"What a good game!  It is fun, it is beautiful, it is easy, it is hard, it is simple... It is great!\n\nWell, it can be a bit repetitive if you play for hours, and at first it is hard to see what part of the ground would crush you, but it is a good arcade ideal to occasionally waste some minutes digging.  It would exist as a coin up and I would spend some coins on it.","format":"md","likes":1,"spam":"N"},{"id":685828,"author_name":"tsuk13","author_uid":"tsuk13","epoch":1619910576,"text":"Neat little arcade game. It took me a bit to decipher the rules around how the blocks fell but then I had a good time.\nAnd yes as others have said, thank you so much for making the pico-8.

I spent a lot of time trying to get a good score, but I'm afraid I'm not a good player in your game. Simple and sensational idea!
