Mole Game - Created for Inbound Shovel Jam

By: grey-monk (Artist) & Rikugamez (Not Artist)

Moley has found himself in a heaping amount of debt and must mine his way back to financial freedom! Buy items and upgrades from the shop to make your life a little easier but you're on the chopping block if you can't make your deadline! Good luck!

Housekeeping:

  • If you lose or just want to start over it's recommended you reload the page.
  • If you get stuck you can always teleport from the pause menu (ESC key) but it will take half of your resources so don't abuse it!

Third party assets used:

  • Pixel UI Theme for Godot - by Pelatho
  • Background Music - by SpringySpringo

Money dup exists.

Edit: Also, to the very right, if you dig down a bit, you shall see that theres no texture for that lane.

I really like the basic gameplay loop; digging tunnels for maximum ores while still trying to have good paths out is a fun puzzle.  


Had a hard time with the climbing/jumping controls, often getting climb when I was just trying to jump and vice versa.  The stamina bar feels punishing especially while just trying to jump up a one high block staircase.  

The countdown to payments could stand to be clearer - when does the day start, how much time do I have left?  I've lost multiple times by not being capable of figuring out what the game was trying to tell me in terms of time left, which was frustrating.  A spindown clock face similar to the stamina gauge could help a lot there, or some kind of audio/visual cue to show "hey you don't have a lot of time remaining".

Glad you enojyed it and thanks for the feedback! We were planning to continue polishing after the rating window ends, so this helps a lot!

Can't leave the shop once open.

The ESC key leaves shop. Sorry that wasn't clear. 

Would be great to add a cross to leave it, on itchio it cancels fullscreen making it akward everytime you shop
