*Tic *Tack *Toe
You're a rescue caver. Get in, get whoever needs to be rescued, get out.
Tonight shouldn't have been anything unusual. Sure, the drill broke midway, but the rock's soft enough for you to dig straight to the trapped caver without much fuss.
Well, supposedly, but then you hear a digging noise, and it isn't coming from you.

Player Notes:
No idea why, but the dialogue in the actual game can only progress if you click a very specific part of the screen (give-or-take where the text shows up, at the same column as the drill). There was a valiant attempt to fix it, but I almost broke the whole dialogue system less than an hour before the original due date in the process. Sorry.
20 seems to be the ideal volume for headphones, at least when I tested it.

Also just realized that I didn't list the controls before the deadline (sorry), so in case I don't manage to add them to the actual description:
WASD - Move
Arrow Keys - Dig
I just realized that thanks to an ill-handled static variable the sprites don't revert between runs. If you're bothered by the wrong sprite showing up please just refresh the game. Sorry!
