Grave Digger
A downloadable game for Windows
-X-ScornGames presents...
It was a gloomy autumn evening when the Grave Digger named Jonas set off for his work at the cemetery near the abandoned asylum. The cemetery was remote, surrounded by dense forest, and the cold of the season was slowly creeping into his bones.
The asylum, once infamous for its malevolent rituals on the patients, had been empty and deserted for many years. Jonas was a practical man who didn't believe in superstitions. He tended to the graves of the deceased and tried to carry out his work conscientiously.
As he reached the cemetery, he immediately noticed something strange. It was quieter than usual. Normally, he would hear the distant sounds of nature or the wind rustling through the trees, but on this evening, everything was silent. Even the lights that usually flickered in the distant mausoleum of the asylum appeared to be extinguished.
Jonas hesitated for a moment before continuing on his way. However, the closer he got to the cemetery, the more he was overcome by an overwhelming sense of discomfort. What will he find ?

Created for the Spooktober Game Jam in october 2023, reaching rank 8th of 66 submissions!
However, Indie.db is an absolutely horrible site and I hate and despise it!
It would be awesome if you'd support me, because...
- I suffer from Tourette-syndrome and OCD, which make it hard for me to work on my games sometimes. I struggle with starting the tools, and I feel stressed and anxious.
- As a solo developer, I have to invest into certain things from time to time (assets, tools, etc) to make the game possible in the first place and to speed up development. These investments, are all payed from my privat money.
- Game developers also need to be able to pay their bills! A few purchases would already help me so much!
- This is a DIY production, that means I'm no professional and i publish all my games by myself. So if you should find any bugs, please let me know. I'll do my best to fix them in time. Any feedback is appreciated.

You alive bro??
hey my brother, yeah im alive :)), even thou its a bit of a struggle currently, ive some trouble with my "boss" who takes me far too much time :( So the situations seems pretty bleak, im not even in the psychal-shape to work on games, ive reduced myself to uploade IAIA, you know 'Donkey' 3d models to sketchfab.... :/ what about you ? i hope everything its great, at least on your side :) kiss <3
Yeah man, you just didnt answer for the past 4 + months :D so It was a bit strange you know. Anyways working multiple jobs, and balancing life in this interesting way like always :) . Trying to make more game assets here and there.
omg ive totally forgotten to reply to your message im sorry :/ yeah i mean alive is not the right word, but not dead yet lol but i had a drastic increase of my depression which made it very hard to get something further, its reallife related bullshit that keeps coming back always in the moment, you absolutely do not need it :/ and this makes it even harder to use bluesky, discord and pretty much anything else then sketchfab, itch and gamejolt, becaue its not like im too lazy,it hurts me by stressy feelings in my stomach, which could also be described as a steady pain that just wont let me focus, also i lately had a virus on my phone and pc, so i spent about 6 weeks to finally still really havent set up all my tools etc, which is pure terror in a tourette brain, so im really sorry, its not because i dont care about you or our connection, but at the moment im on a low ive not even had when my hd with myfirst game was suddenly broken, and all date gone :/ anyway, how about you, ive seen you dont follow me anymore and kinda ex-partnered me, is this because of what you said in your latest comment or did i do something wrong too that i maybe didnt even noticed :/
I will always support ya bud, its just that you keep going into these power brawls where you casually downvote 60 projects and then flame people. And you went missing everywhere so eventually I gave up a bit apologies on that :( .!
And yeah I have been doing so and so trying to sort my life out and just get stuff going you know, hope you been doing well and keep on doing!
I'm still interested in doing review videos on your games to get myself started with content creation if you are ever interested, remember I did this here but you never got back to me if I did the right thing or even any feedback what I thought of it, though of course I got the review within the comments though!
The damage taken from enemies is way too high, and they spawn out of nowhere. I would also suggest removing the limited lives. If you adjust these aspects, you'd have a good foundation for a game. Otherwise, it's unplayable in my opinion.
Very spooky!
This is actually quite lit, love it!
