That is what a thought at first, then I played it, nice work, now just make a death worm mod and we will all be happy. :grin:

Oh and, might want to make a sprite for it.

Wow did I say Mod Making? I meant Mod Releases. Well, placement won't matter in this contest due to my slip-up.

Okay, I guess keeping track of how much of something other than gold that you dig is pretty cool, but this isn't really--
...???
!!!

At first, I was expecting something shockingly awesome. then I tried it, and got disappointed, thinking " just a plain heavy digger with a different name? What the heck, is this all?" Then suddently, a large rock appeared, and I found out that I can move it. Then I thought "this rocks! It's just like Death Worm!" So this was actually not shockingly awesome, it was groundbreaking. It was just hidden, and needed to be dug out to see it.

Pretty cool. It's too bad it starts getting difficult to control after a bit of burrowing due to the lack of dirt, but there's not a lot you can do about that.

I see what you did there

it takes alot of rocks to make the beast, how do you decrease the amount of rocks you need?

id give it a 8 out of 10. i do this because it takes a while to get started and gets hard to control after a while, and when it activates sometimes it squishes my guy.

It is meant to have those downsides for balance.
When I get back from ATVing at Pismo Beach on monday, I'll make an over powered version just for you guys.
(TLB I would've made it swim through the ground based on the initial terrain, but this way encourages strategy and being conservative).

I'd say 7/10, if only for a general lack of polish. Of course, that's understandable considering that zalo is posting it early and leaving. As well, there's the aforementioned issue of it running out of dirt to dig through pretty fast. As much as it encourages strategy, the turning speed makes it pretty hard to accurately conserve terrain.

Oh, that's how this contest's voting works? Well, alright.
7/10 A crazy awesome general function, with a severe lacking of shiny polish.

7/10
This is awesome.
My game crashed when I reset the scene though (ran out of terrain).

I find it funny to watch a rock bouncing up and down when you run of terrain.
