NOTES:

---------------------------------------------

This is my first full game. I am still new to game dev as well as coding.

I am quite proud of this game even though it is a simple concept. 

There are many ways I could improve it on the code as well as gameplay. 

I am not sure if I will continue developing this but if there are any bugs please do let me know.

Me encantó tu proyecto y el como lograste mezclar el concepto de buscaminas con ese estilo de pelea Pokémon es facinante , la temática marina y tu pixelart es espectacular 

Me tomé la libertad de hacer una reseña de tu juego para el público latino espero te guste y lo tomes con humor 

Pd me encanta el juego de verdad y me encantaría jugarlo sin Internet Pero no sé si el problema sea de mi emulador pues me aparece un error a la hora de ejecutarlo :c

Thank you! I had to run your comment through Google Translate :-P
I am happy that you enjoyed my game! I'm sorry about the error you get when trying to play offline. I am not sure what the fault can be.

Really fun twist on a classic! The art is 100% gorgeous--you are a phenomenal pixeller.

Very fun little minesweeper game!  Love the bright vibrant art style

Hey this game is pretty cool!

It's very short and simplistic in the best way possible. I've never seen quite a spin on Minesweeper before, with the quick turn-based battle if you hit an enemy. And the cherry on top is the gems you mine helping you out in battle - very creative and unique touch. And I'm always a sucker for the retro music and art style... Great work!

What an awesome review! Thank you so much! I did try to make a different type of minesweeper even though it's still minesweeper. I'm glad you enjoyed the music because I have no background in music haha.

Glad to see you on itch.io!

I love the theme of the game and the artwork.

Thanks! Yeah I made it a "reward" scenario that if I convince myself to finish the game I deserve to have an itch.io page for it haha.

Really love this Minesweeper x Pokemon Game

Hey Bucks! Thank you! I am glad you enjoy it.

Really enjoy this take on Minesweeper!! Phenomenal work!!

That's quite a compliment! I appreciate that! Thanks!

That's so cool! Clever modification of the classic idea.

Thank you!
