I did not get in all the features I would have liked, but I'm still very happy with the results. I will be pursuing this game further after the compo. I'd like to get the draw calls down and maybe come up with a similar mobile version. I have included the source code (Unity project). Please enjoy my game and I'm open to recommendations on improvement.

Nice, after I played for a bit I was messing with the menu and was able to get all the cubes on the menu to disappear.
Awesome job! Love the concept, and great presentation too. Stirling work.
Love the idea, just wish the controls were a little tighter. Try setting velocities directly rather than using that super gradual addforce.
I like the fail messages :)
It took a minute to understand, but the concept is good and fun. My only two complaints would be that the controls feel a little bit slippery and enemies don't die when they walk on lava.
I think the isometric camera angle works really good in this game.
I loved your style, but I had a hard time understanding which blocks I could remove. As best as I can tell, it's the blocks that are rotated to be at the top of the screen. If you could make the game screen a little smaller too - I missed some of the instructions because the Unity Window was larger than my browser window.
Fits the theme really well, love the innovation and the style, the only downside is the lag on the controls. Really nice work.
Good job, the only two things I could complain are the the screen resolution and the slippery controlls. But I think I could get used to that.
fun game, however, the momentum to move and while moving left me feeling a little bit helpless.
I had a problem playing the web version. The textmeshes are not displaying properly and the browser slows down. Sorry but I couldn't get it running on chrome.
Really liked the simple graphical style.
It seems like it would have been fun if not for the incredibly slippery controls.
This really impressed me.
Both gameplay wise and when it comes to pixels!
I really like the concept and the visuals. The movement feels really off though. Anyways: That's a great game you've made here!
I find the controls slightly unresponsive, I think the friction on the player is too high. Which is frustrating because it is difficult to avoid the bombs. It would be more fun if the player could move quicker from a standstill.
Great idea. Would really love to play this with tighter controls. Keep at it :)
Really really cool game. I wish the controls were a bit smoother but I just learned myself that it's easier said than done. :D Love the aesthetics. Beautiful design!
##BUG FIX UPDATE ##################
Fixed
- resolution issues with the web / build versions being too large. The game now runs in 640 squared (not 1024 squared)
- instructions should now be visible in all builds
- removed latency issues with player controls and tightened player movement.
Well this is marvellous. Love the 3d-setup and the mechanics, and all the different types of block that come up :)
Really nice and interesting idea! goes for some immersive gameplay! also allways love that low res 3d style!
Great presentation, controls are a little stiff, but otherwise great concept!
Pretty cool. Controls were a bit tough to work with. Is progress tracked by number of coins collected? Maybe it should track depth?
Very cool art style and blocks variety! Although not a lot of things to do. Try making levels finite and set some sort of goal or challenge or achievements.
There is some strange delay in movement. I think it's due to the fact that you compare keyboard axis input to 1 instead of zero.
Good work after all!
Not sure what I'm doing but the instructions at the beginning really threw me off. The controls felt a bit sluggish as well. I enjoyed the aesthetics a lot, they were simple, although with the exception to lava, didn't really play into the game.
Really cool concept well executed and looks great too! Well done!
Controls are quite unresponsive and overall the game is lacking content. It looks great though.
Loved the style and gameplay, had me replaying for a while! Only problem I had was enemies being pushed around by sand blocks right below them, and killing me while I expected they'd stay in their location for a bit.

I found the global style of the game (cubes, art, gameplay) very lovely. I have the feeling that this could be something really great.
Very nice minimalistic art style. The game is pretty hard, but I had fun playing it.
Nice graphics, a really cool idea, and I like the way in which the controls were presented. The controls themselves felt a bit finicky (had to press space a few times before the game started, movement didn't always happen) but I liked this game a lot.
Really cool idea and a lot of fun to play, but the movement could definitely use work. I ended up accidentally scooting into lava way too many times. This could be a really fun, multiple quick sessions kinda game.
A really cool game! :D Took me a few minutes to get used to the controls, but as soon as I'd gotten those figured out, I really enjoyed it :) The fail messages are brilliant too xD
Controls were a bit floaty and rotation didn't feel very useful or essential. Very nice entry overall, really liked the graphics and it was fun to play :)
Inspiring concept, man!
It working pretty slow for me. And sometimes glitchy. But if you polish this game, it will be cool!
Cool game with a great graphical style. It was pretty hard at first but I kept getting better. But oh how I wanted a jump button. xD A bit lacking on the audio but that's completely understandable. :)
Really cool game. Loved the Bomberman vibe I got from playing it. A little frustrating when the tall blocks pop up out of the ground, obscuring your movements in behind them. Other than that small issue, I had fun messing around with this one. Nice look and presentation too. Great idea for the menu system. Solid work.
Beautifully presented, simple to pick up, and fun to play, but a little fidgety in movement. Would love to see it expanded upon.
That is a very cool concept, I liked it! The controls were a bit "Sticky", which made it difficult to play, but if you can solve that, this would be a great game. Also some calming music would go nicely with this game.
Thanks for the game!
Really nice design and game mechanic, love the visual style. Just didn't totally understand how to play it.
Love the concept and the art but not the execution. Controls are frustrating and the game lacks rythm. A bit of polishing and you'll have a great fun game!
Incredibly cool core gameplay idea you have there, you should definitely develop it further. Very stiff controls and the worst sound ever does not hinder what is an excellent entry, congratulations :)
Nice game, but I was not sure what is the end game goal if there is one.
Looks really nice, not entirely sure what the goal is.
If you put down bombs as fast as possible, you can consistently dig yourself into a hole.
Movement is bit weird, and that sound when you rotate the cube was very irritating :) Otherwise it's nice to have 3d-bomberman style game!
Pretty rad game! Nice concept, and I had fun playing. The controls felt a bit stiff, and it took me a while to figure out how to start playing the game. Everytime I pressed "Space", nothing would happen. I soon figured it was because I was selecting the wrong block, but I wasn't really sure how I knew. Otherwise, I think it's lovely and looks great!
Cool idea, nice novel tak on the usual mining gameplay!! Good job!
WASD movement is strange. Felt a bit clunky (too smoothed out?)
Regardless: what a beautiful, beautiful game. I'm impressed. Brilliant idea, and execution. This has promise. Well done!
This is really awesome, 5 star mood. The movement was a little bit glitchy, but other than that everything was perfect.
Interesting idea and very very well presented. I would certainly keep working on it and see where it goes.

MY GAME CRASHES, IS UNBEATABLE, OR I MADE A TYPO: We allow you to fix crash or win condition bugs after the deadline (in a sense, like “porting” to support more players). We also allow “typo” bugs. I.e. A true that should have been a false, a word that should have been a different word, very tiny changes that you would have caught if you had more sleep. We leave this open to interpretation, but generally speaking your game should be identical to the game you submitted. No new features, just things you messed up last minute. Typos.
Pretty cool! The "press Q and E" instructions were off the bottom of my screen the first time I played, all I could do was click blocks and make them go away! Once I figured it out I had fun.
