Gold Digger by Kekyr

The gold rush has taken over the town.
Mine gold bars from the depths of the earth.
Beware of areas with gas.!

For a simple auto scroller, there is room for neat movement options. Rapidly moving left and right lets you stay in place. Going for all the gold in a layer felt like an advanced strategy to go for a higher score. I was wondering if there was a bottom, and when I reached it I got stuck without a way to restart. The sound effect for hitting a wall is pretty loud, which can be comical but repeated quickly enough it gets grating.
A funny issue popped up I had to check. The game's resolution is so big I had to scale down the screen size, but that caused the score and depth text to leave the screen, so I didn't know what my score was until I hit an end. The UI features can get weird in unity. I find textmeshpro to be more reliable to exist in real space sometimes.
More variation would be cool to see. Good work!
