Short and sweet! A fun little puzzle game that I enjoyed my time with. The feedback when hitting things with the shovel felt great, and the later levels provided a good challenge. Unfortunately, though, I seem to be stuck with 9/10 achievements - I unlocked the good ending first try, and I don't think there's a way to erase my progress and start over to get the bad ending. Maybe a game reset option could be added? Regardless, this game's an easy recommendation.

hey, thanks for playing Shovel Pirate. Good point about the Bad Ending not being unlockable after the Good Ending is unlocked first, I'll change that achievement to something different and push a new update asap

shovel pirate's controls feel a bit clunky, it's annoying how you can't move your character mid air so you have to be moving before you make a jump in order to do the platforming, also when you're close to a ladder and an enemy is near you the attack button should be prioritized. these 2 things make the game frustrating and not fun to play, just for me at least

A fun puzzle platformer worth playing, although I think the controls could use some customization and the ability to separate the jump/dig from the up/down buttons for climbing ladders. I'm only on level 7 and those four actions being the same two buttons is already annoying.
