So apparently a game that involves digging is automatically "unabashedly ripping off Minecraft or Terraria". First of all, apart from the digging, this isn't very much like those games, if anything it's more like a classic arcade game.

I played it for a bit and do have some good things to say: it has an old-school charm and is fun if you like retro games. The pixel art is very well done and enhances the feeling that you're playing an old DOS or arcade game. Anyone who makes a big deal about it not being original enough, well, if you really know your gaming history you'd know that 9 out of 10 games on here aren't all that original, not even Minecraft or Terraria.

I was wondering if there are any plans to make version 1.1 available as a downloadable EXE to replace the old 1.01 version that is currently available? Not really a big deal, but it would be nice to be able to have a backup of the latest version of the game.

In any case, kudos on this awesome game. I actually bought it twice, first on here, then again on Steam...at such a low price point, buying it twice felt like a good way to show support. Can't wait to see what you have planned for the future! :)

Thanks rioninja, I tried reinstalling fresh ATI drivers with everything but the control center program, but still the same problem. I guess my card just can't handle the game.

Thank you for your reply, and yeah, the onboard graphics I'm using is pretty old, I'll be upgrading soon anyway.

I want to buy this, but I couldn't get the demo to work...turned out the ATI Catalyst Control Center was the problem...so I uninstalled it and the demo finally worked. It ran fine through the menu and intro sequence, but as soon as the gameplay started it ran like a slideshow (though the music was playing fine). Tried it in windowed and fullscreen and tried different Vsync options in the config.xml file. My CPU is AMD 4600+, 1 GB RAM, but I'm using onboard ATI x1250 graphics until I can replace my dedicated graphics card. I'm guessing that my graphics might be the problem, but I usually don't have any problems with 2D games with it. Any help would be appreciated.
