Miner Taur
SMASH!
Take on the role of Miner Taur! A mighty water buffalo from the outback intent on making some money by uncovering opals. Made for the Ready, Set, Godot! game jam. There's a windows version for download at the bottom if the web version isn't working so good. We don't know how to optimise yet! ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
CONTROLS
Point Taur in the direction you want him to go with your mouse and he'll charge in that direction. Utilise your impacts with the environment to redirect him and try and BASH and CRUNCH your way through more and more mounds of dirt, stone, and crystal.
HINTS
Opals are worth a sliding scale of coin, so keep an eye out for the rarer black and red opals. They'll also add some time to your precious timer! Once you have most of the opals in a room, aim for the top of the cave to smash through into the next one and find easier targets!
