I'm reuploading my games from itch.io here...

Aaahh this is one of my favourite games that I've made

I keep going back and trying to get a no death run in this game, but I haven't managed to yet, sadly, because I made this game kinda hard. I only got to the room before the boost upgrade without dying...

I've also found a bunch of skips and bugs which are pretty fun to pull off - I've managed to beat the game with only the dash upgrade a few times, but I haven't managed to skip anything else (yet...)

This game's balancing isn't the best, but I hope you find this as fun as I do :)


[The rest is copied from the itch.io description]

You play as a small robot, who has been exiled from society into the mines below, all because of a defect that allows it to transform into a drill. Help it escape the treacherous pits and return to the surface!

- WASD to move

- Space to jump

- J to drill

- K to drill dash (when unlocked)

- Space when underground to drill boost (when unlocked)


Be warned before you play - the platforming in this game eventually gets to around the difficulty of Path of Pain in Hollow Knight or Chapter 7 of Celeste, so be prepared to die a lot.

Although this jam was a month long, I only had a week due to personal reasons, so the world of this game isn't nearly as fleshed out or detailed as I would have hoped, but I hope you still find it enjoyable!

Please don't forget to rate for Metroidvania Month 16 Jam!
