I found it pretty hard, I found the first TV, but after that... nothing! I liked the art though, and loved the sparse-but-interesting storytelling.

Love the music!
Really liked this. The whole package was great, especially the knuckleheads :)
did I find E.T., the atari game?
I was kinda perplexed at first, because it flashed,, but I didn't find the TV. Dug like 5 holes next to each other until I got it. Also, I liked the art in the intro, why did you change it in the main game? (Noooo, Lucy's hair doesn't stand up anymore!!! :) )
Nice music, very clean graph and animations (I loved lucy's arm swinging ^^). But hard to find the stuff ! The double message with the theme is cool.
very polished, very enjoyable!
Very fun, I finished the game first time. Loved the music too!!
Really like the music :).
I laughed a couple of times and the graphics are real amazing.
Great job.
Wow. Loved it :D
Too bad is really short, cause i liked it a lot ^^
Nice, very simple game, I like the idea of games with minimal controls. I think the artstyle was perfect for a game like this. And I loved the music.
The sound design is really cool, great pixel art work too.
Pretty random, but very cool nonetheless. :)
Make more!
Yeah I found the teddy bear ! The flashes are a bit too hard too spot at first. I loved this simple yet very effective story, perfect match with the theme, you have my vote !
This was well done! I really liked the audio and graphics, however, after finding the TV it was difficult to find anything, even when the white flash was signaling me to dig.
Love the music, the animations, the concept. You need to release the soundtrack!
Wow! Amazing Art, Music, Everything! Simple yet elegant. Good Job!
What a strange little game! I mean that in a good way. I love that you made a game about dowsing too. :) I managed to get to the end of the game. It was just the right length. If it hadn't ended as soon as it did, it would've needed some different mechanics being introduced to keep the treasure finding interesting. One question though, what the heck was that yellow drop that falls down when the muscle-heads are digging? Couldn't figure that one out.
@HybridMind: that's actually the remnant of a ditched game mechanic, interestingly enough. I was going to have seagulls come and bother the diggers, and you'd have to swipe at the... stuff they dropped. Kinda crass now that I think of it. Actually, if you press left or right while digging you'll see I got far enough programming it that they will swipe. But there's no penalty if you don't! I ended up leaving the drop in anyway.
Thank you, and everyone else for the feedback. This is my first LD and it's been awesome.
Love the art, but had trouble finding anything after first TV. If the flashes were more consistent, I would properly have had an easier time.
I really enjoyed this game, great music, humor and graphics :) Really short, but it was a lot of fun!
That was really cute!
Such a cute happy ending :D
Really beautiful looking game, and a charming story to match. Grear dialogue too. I'd like to immersive myself in this world for a few days!
Cute work
Did the game stop after the "I guess my family's not too bad" ? Because nothing is happening for me after that point
I like the little background and the oncles thing :)
Very interesting and kinda funny! The idea is very unique too.
Short but very well put together. It was tough to pinpoint how flashy was necessary to warrant digging.
One of the best games I've seen so far! Nice work, love the music!
Really charming and relaxing. Also quite polished! Well done.
