Dig 'Till You Drown

My entry for Ludum Dare 48.

Theme: Deeper and Deeper

The goal of the game is to get as many water crystals as possible before the mines flood. As you progress the mines get more dangerous, but more rewarding! Whack the crystals with your pickaxe to gather them. Dig through dirt to explore the mines. Use the bucket elevator to get out before you drown!

Controls:

Movement - WASD or Arrow Keys

Jump: W or Up Arrow or Z

Swing Pickaxe: Spacebar or X

Dig Down: swing pickaxe while holding S or Down Arrow

The impossible pickaxe trick: while balancing on your pickaxe below you, hit the jump button

NOTE: the HTML5 version is having performance issues that I'm currently debugging, so I have included native builds for Windows, MacOS, and Linux. Thanks!
