About your game

What is your game about?
Wake up! You have been locked away in an (semi) abandoned mine for hundreds of years. Luckily you're prepared with a safety helmet, a pick, and a bad sense of humour. Can you get out and touch some grass? Nobody knows...

How do you play your game?
Goal: Collect the hidden key in the mine to unlock the door, collecting as many gems as you can while your at it.
(hint: keep your eyes out for the sparkles)

To move use WASD or IJKL.

Can you see the update on your side? @whatwareweb

[whatwareweb]

Yes that worked, can you also make sure you have the @description tag

[overcheer]

Yep, added it. Let me know if there's anything else missing @whatwareweb . Also, thanks for your help so far.

[whatwareweb]

thanks!

[whatwareweb]

Hello! Love this game artwork and the concept is fun! 2 things before we can merge:

• Can you add more levels? Currently the game is quite short
• Can you also add more complexity to the game? It's currently very simple, some more mechanics would go a long way in improving the game. Use your imagination - a dungeon/mine crawler type of game has tons of potential!
  Thanks!

[overcheer]

@whatwareweb Thanks for the amazing ideas! Will start working on implementing them in a few days, I’ll let you know when I’ve finished.

[overcheer]

Hi @whatwareweb . Again, thanks for the feedback. I've just submitted the new version, let me know what you think!

[whatwareweb]

Looks good! Thanks for the changes

[whatwareweb]

Thanks for your submission!

If you're a teen, you can get your Sprig here! sprig-order.hackclub.dev

Hack Clubbers would love to see this! Just post a link and 1-2 sentences talking about your game to our #ship channel

[overcheer]

Thanks a lot @whatwareweb ! I'm just having some slight issues when accessing the Slack. It's telling me: "Is this the right email address?
It looks like there isn’t an account on Hack Club tied to this email address." when I sign into the same email address I use for sprig.

[overcheer]

Hi @whatwareweb , how do I get my sprig game on the gallery? Thanks.

[whatwareweb]

Hello, currently the gallery is not updating, it is a known issue. I'm working on a fix right now!

As for signing into the Slack, please direct all questions to [email protected]

thank you!!!
