Thrilling drilling indeed
Pros: - original core gameplay mechanic - every level introduces something fresh and exciting - pretty pixel-art - nice music Cons: - more checkpoints in levels wouldn't hurt

A Fan
Ever wondered what it would be like to be a land dolphin? Well grab your drill and get digging with this excellent platform adventure. Structured like a traditional platformer, drill your way through 4 Worlds of platforming jumps, and well crafted levels. The main drilling and traversal mechanics are fantastic, will platform and level design that makes you want to flow through a level without stopping. Plus with Puzzles and combat challenges scattered through out this is a fantastic game and well worth the MSRP. If you are looking for a fun platforming adventure this game has my recommendation.

Good indie game
I really enjoyed this game. It takes the concept of "what if drills in platformer" and keeps expanding on it with each level. There are always new ideas to keep things interesting. The game is short; I beat all the levels in around 2 and a half hours. However, I prefer this to a game that would drag things out. It gives you all the good stuff with no fluff. I also like the art style and music.
