I like this game, but I think the attack in downward direction is bit off when you had the player doing the attack animation in down direction.

I liked the scan mechanics, the controls were reaaaaaally complicated to me, I moved and tested everything just in case, until I started to find stuff. The first time I used the scan I assumed I had to go and dig to get things but it didn't work as expected so I continued randomly testing controls. Anyways, I kinda liked the idea + scan + dig, but the experience wasn't smooth and didn't allow me to enjoy the game so much.
The scanner is very cool mechanic and I like the movement of everything that has you thinking before you do things.
Love the metal detector, a scan that reads out signal strength with gold and useful odds before you commit to digging is a clever way to make every hole a gamble, and the little explorer in the big hat is a great sprite. nice job
I like it! It took some getting used to, but I finished the game with a total of 3210$. I wish the button layout was done differently though, because I accidentally skipped the last two shops because I kept pressing B
I liked the idea of the game and how it turned out. At first i was bit lost but that's just on me.
I really had some fun going trough rooms finding some good money/artifacts. I also had some problems with the controls but it's not that it broke my gameplay.
I still enjoyed well done!
I liked the music for this but i was not a fan of the button layout for my keyboard. I couldn't help but find it a little funky to control because of this :(
Very good soundtrack, especially liked the Shop Track and Old Gold Track. Wished there was more after getting the Old Gold just to listen to that track a bit more honestly. Do wish it was more consistent what text freezes you in place and what doesn't, or at least a bit more visual indication which pop-ups did or didn't prevent movement.
Enjoyable
