Made it to the level where you had to dig up and got stuck, haha\n\nThe positives:\n- The visual style was nice. It all meshed together very well, I felt like i was playing an old windows 95 computer game, haha\n- The music was also great. Gotta love that bass line, its gonna be stuck in my head I know it\n- Great premise. Digging games like this are a classic and it was definitely a lot of fun to play another, I cant think of too many in the past few years\n- I love the main characters hard hat <3\n- I really liked the in built challenge mode of the gold nuggets\n\nWhat could be improved:\n- that jump is really strong... like REALLY strong. going up 1 tile was quite tricky, haha\n- Like i said, I did get stuck on the digging up level.
