@corecraft It looks like a very interesting game. Very complex. For a JAM it may be too complex and involved. I only played for a few minutes.

You have to remember that most people playing a JAM game want to see lots of games, and play lots of games so we only spend a few minutes playing.

Seems like an interesting concept and genre mix, graphics are ace and mining feels juicy! Despite help menus, tutorialisation could use some work as the game has a bunch of different mechanics to learn and I couldn't figure out how some of the aspects functioned fully. Some real potential though!

Interesting gameplay, the character movement is a bit delayed but it's fine. Really liked the art style.

I liked the style of the game! Although, I didn't quite get the gameplay. Monsters just wandering around around the start and do nothing. Also, mouse controls are a little bit off. If you press at left-bottom side of the tile, it will point at adjacent tile instead of the one I clicked.

It would be cool if mining feature were more stricted. For example, limit the distance based on player or make player mine by hand. As for now, I can spam-click and dig the whole map in two minutes. Thanks for your game though!

I really like mining for collection and summoning with materials. I hope the characters go faster and maybe the character is not necessary. The graphics are polished, the message is clear, and the UI part is mature.Nice work!

This game is great, I do like it! I played 0.1.2 version

**Pros:**

Visual are insane, but need smooth animations, I think. It was difficult to understand the drag&drop mechanic
The idea is also something new for me. I mean, tower defense with mining isn't innovative, but the thing that all the blocks get shifted is really cool.
Thx for guides you left in menu, and hopefully, I can check them out during the game.



**Cons:**

Unfortunately, it didn't play the core gameplay loop: both timers were 0, and nothing happened, I could have dig the whole level, but dropped it.
The scrolling camera is too fast. Maybe you make it with middle mouse button? It'd be cool, if I could just drag it by mouse.

The art and post processing is incredibly good but the game was a bit too confusing and a bit hard to get into.

I really really enjoyed the visuals, but couldn't figure out what to do. I got summons to happen, but they didn't seem to do anything aside from wander around.

I like the art and the idea but I would have liked it to have a web version. Anyway it's a good game. Good job!
