Chill and fun game. I like being able to help other people to get a better ending. Great job!
Chill game. I like helping the other people. Wish there was a bit of stories that come with it after you help them out.
Could use some music, sounds are fun. I also like it that you can bounce the beach ball XD I wish there were some sort of ending when you got the final item.
The art are fine, but assets seem kinda mismatched. It would have also been nice if the dig minigame doesn’t appear abruptly but there’s a quick transition. Another QoL feature is the ability to fast forward the dialogue text or skip it.
I really wanted to have more than the two endings depending on if you helped everyone and left with your dream item as the "ultra good" ending or if you sold everyone's items as the "ultra bad" ending but time got away from me.
I'm also glad you discovered the beach ball, I left that as a little thing to discover rather than giving away that you could interact with it!
I've gotten the music and text speed feedback from others as well, but hadn't considered a transition to the dig mini-game, that's a really good suggestion! Thank you for all the feedback!
Great work mate! I feel like we hit similar beats and I really like where you went with it ^-^

I love the direction you took yours, it's fun to see how people take on similar concepts! Thank you so much for the feedback, definitely agree with those QoL features you suggested, skipping text is definitely a big one I didn't consider but is so nice to have.
Hey, we made pretty similar games thats funny. Really enjoyed the simple digging game this game has. love the visual style and the animated ocean waves! Sfx are satisfying. Music could be more. I really like the idea that we can run faster but with the drawback of being unable to use the metal detector. Good job and keep it up!
Haha yeah there's a couple games centered around metal detecting, I appreciate you giving mine a try too! I agree that having some background music throughout could really polish it further. Thanks for the feedback!
Cute and cozy little game. Well done!
Yo what a nice cozy game, had a looot of fun digging and finding treasures on beach! GGs
Thank you :D
This was really chill. I didn't want to stop digging up treasures and helping people with their metallic troubles. Nice art style too. Great work.
Thank you, I appreciate the kind words!
