What would make it better? I wonder if it might be possible to add a bigger "risk vs reward" element - whether some type of blocks (or maybe the big groups of the same-colored blocks) could take longer to drill through (and so use more oxygen) but give bigger points.
I could also imagine simultaneous multi-player on the same map could be interesting!
Good work for just one day!
Step 2: Profit.
This game is a winner. (Although in its current form it's probably too easy. Adding in buried land mines or something to avoid would bring this to another level.)
Might wanna swap out controls for WASD -- the page kept scrolling while I played.
My only complaint is that using the up or down arrows too much made the actual page scroll (using Chrome on OS X).
I agree with quill18 that this game has a lot of potential on mobile. Well done!
(Actually my game was inspired by it too)
