So my first many attempts at digging got me nothing and when I ran around and saw how big the world was I almost gave up. But finally I hit a bit of silver and persevered. I got enough money from one spot that I upgraded directly to the diamond one and then digging while running was awesome. But the very very beginning was definitely offputting. Nice graphics and UI and I enjoyed the sound effects.

The game pretty slow, didn't get to enjoy most of it. Very simple and it's functional, but not very fun at the moment.

the start is too frustrating and slow. I think if the cost of digging one square was less than a whole bar, it would be a bit more balanced. A few tweaks here and there and a smoother start game though and it would be great fun.

Difficult beginning, but picks up fairly quickly. A very good game overall.
