Rumors are abound of a diamond hidden beneath the surface. Curious as you are, you've decided to check things out for yourself. Time in the cave appears to function strangely- you can only spend so much time in there before being forced back to the surface. Can you retrieve the diamond before time runs out?

(For those not familiar with Pico-8- the "O" button represents the Z key on your keyboard)

Special thanks to AbyssalMari who did the sprites and music for this game.

Great! Pico 8 file possible?

I've posted the game to lexaloffle, so you can take a look at the source if you wish to do so.

Great game, only nitpick is that the spider on the ceiling after the gem rooms entrance can sometimes spawn on top of the player after exiting the gem room and resulting in unavoidable damage/time-loss. However, over than that small nitpick then this is a perfect little game. Keep it up

Thank you!
