Made for Ludum Dare 48, this game was made in just over 36 hours. Its a rough skeleton of a game, with minimal polish. The theme was Deeper and Deeper. 

Thanks for playing!


A 6-level game about retrieving your brain. 

This mole made his way up to the surface, but has forgotten how to dig upward. He clearly forgot his brain, and needs to go deeper to get it back.


To dig, hold A, S or D respectively and HOLD space to begin digging. When the circle is full, the block will break. Press E to eat!

Standard dirt will produce worms and beetles. Both will heal you as you slowly lose health throughout the game.

Thick dirt with lighter patches could produce spiders which give you special benefits. These are:

Speed - Increase digging speed slightly for a short period, increase movement for a short period.

Strength - Allows destruction of stone, massively increases digging times.






Known things:

  • - UI is very basic, I spent more time on the mole art.
  • - You can escape the map sometimes, and you wont die.
  • - Some animation glitches
  • - Lacking extra content
