Good job, I liked looking for items, it was a bit difficult=)

It's a very beautiful game, but I couldn't find the last nugget of gold. I don't understand where to find it, I've been looking for a very long time)

@mr-kliff Thank you for playing. If it's "a bit" difficult, that's the point ^^

@georgeburg Thank you! :pray: I updated the page with a spoiler section of every collectable, in case you are really stuck. Hope it'll help!

I like the mood this game offers, I have found every items (took me around 10 minutes). Well played!

ITS SO CUTE ??? Amazing job, congrats ! I got everything except one big nugget :(

I would have loved little interactions with the ruins or the river, to find washed up gold ! Love the little hammer and the art. Amazing job ! Gold finder.png

@chikendeath @absolushzero Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it :smiley:

@gorglomux Totally, our first intention was to put many puzzles and hidden interactions in the game. But we finally lack of time... A sieve and a fishing games were planned, but we have prioritized the hammer interaction one.

Petit jeu ultra mignon avec un mood de fou (j'ai évidemment tout trouvé et oublié de screen...) Ultra efficace! GG à vous :smile:

Lovely game! Well played!

Really cute game, it was nice looking around those cute characters to find gold! My only issue was that it didn't include a small introduction/control explanation so I didn't understand what to do at firt! But I'm glad that I managed to find them all in the end :D

Cute game! I really like the basic idea to look for items and using other items for some interaction. Having more items and puzzles would be neat, but I understand that the time might have run out. Otherwise I think it might be really helpful to add some basic explanations to the game page - I honestly needed some to figure out what I was supposed to do. The music itself is also fine, but the looping point sticks out quite a bit. Lastly it might be a good choice to have the camera and interaction action on different buttons, as the player might accidently move the camera, instead of pick up the items. But again, overall I really liked this game!

I liked this game so much and I wished there were more things to interact with. Nevertheless great job.

Gameplay could be faster, but I like it overall

cool graphics, didn't understand how to play. May be bugged for firefox

A little more sfx could add to a gameplay, but it's simple, beautiful and fun.
