Brought me back to mining in the great underground in Pok\u00e9mon Diamond and Pearl. I'd say the one block treasures are bad for the game though. It turn the game into more of a gamble.

In Digseum, after level 3 meta upgrades, the digging part loses its challenge.\n\n@jhonny111 \u2013 Thanks for the feedback! Actually, those are water blocks \u2014 unlike sand blocks that just fall straight down, water blocks can fall  \"diagonally\".

Needs some balancing about the powerup (more hits op, i can just spam :D ) but that's understandable during a jam! Another pet peeve of mine is that: when you complete a level the money seems clickable, but as soon as you try click em, the powerup panel shows and you click on something random, so... just make the money doesn't seem clickable will do!
