Shovel Game

Shovel Game is a short-form first-person experience that combines elements reminiscent of Minecraft’s destructible environments. Players navigate through bizarre spaces, mining only select blocks while avoiding lethal sprites resembling Zordon from Power Rangers. The game features a demo on Itch.io and is set to launch on Steam. It includes a labyrinth with blue phantoms and unsettling imagery in a cosmic chapel. The game was developed by Luke Vincent for a "shovelware horror" game jam. Another entry from the same jam, titled Crank It, was created by Mike Klubnika and James Dornan, involving navigation through a cavernous hallway filled with gadgets and lurking horrors.
