Really fun tiny game. My only problem was that it was, well.. tiny on my monitor, had to resort to the magnifier ease-of-use tool :)

Really fun tiny game. My only problem was that it was, well.. tiny on my monitor, had to resort to the magnifier ease-of-use tool :)
I had fun drawing a penis in the sand but that's about it.
It looks a bit like a pocketstation version of "smash the space key 5000 times"
Hooray, I found a horcrux!
This game was pretty similar to mine, in the aspect that the game was about digging up tiles for treasure. I have two suggestions, though:
1)Unique item textures, from what I've seen every treasure is just a star
2)The beeps seemed kind of random. Maybe that was intentional, but I had multiple beeps on places where there was no treasure
Yaaaa ha haaaa ! I win :)
The game just boiled down to pressing the spacebar. I feel if it had more game mechanics it would be more engaging.
Liked it. The beep is on / off, isn't it? I would have loved to have it varying volume or something to make it easier to find things. :)
The player teleports a bit if you give a move command before the previous one finishes. Your post has the controls at the end of the line that starts with "The aim of the game..." so I initially missed it and had no idea how to interact with the game.
I only found one treasure, I guess I was supposed to go deeper although I dug every tile at least twice. Going for additional laps didn't seem too worthwhile.
Great idea!!!
You're not allowed to use Freesound effects for the compo, only self-produced sounds made during the jam. No one really cares, but just a heads up for next time
Nice idea, it just needed some fun challenge. I think it took too long for the beep to appear.
Great idea, it just needed more of a game! Funny though
