Finished the game, though not complete, but you'll see what I mean ;). Maybe you won't even notice. Maaan I feel sick.
I used Ruby and Gosu, sounds with cfxr and wolframalpha, Photoshop for graphics and coke to stay awake. Problem now: I'm shivering from too much sugar

This game is just awesome. Great storytelling, graphics, and audio. I forgive you for not letting me play again when I lose.
The text under the rock is a bit hard to read.
@furyhunter: yes, you're right. not even insoiration, it's basically the same except you need a specific amount revealed :)
@steve: yes yes, that was the deadline pulling my feet ;)
I enjoyed playing, although I'm not sure I had much of a strategy. It seemed like the game was easy for a bunch of levels, and then it became impossible...
A very good game! However the difficulty tuning is off a bit. The first few screens are just a breeze (simply brushing everything works fine), the latter pretty hard. Esp. since you have to restart from the first screen again.
Very funny intro/dialogue!
The text was a bit hard to read at times but overall a good job.

I could tell straight away that there might be a little inspiration from the mining minigame in Pokemon Diamond/Pearl? Either way, I really liked the characters and story. Definitely an interesting game.
