✔️ Bug Free

✔️ I really liked the font (or was it handwriting?). All the menus felt complete and well done.

✔️ The art makes me smile. I love that little dog and its silly pick axe. I want it to get its silly little kibble house!

✔️ The music and sound effects fit really well. The sad 'I found coal' whine is great!

✖️ It took a while to figure out how to move. I read the directions but I was expecting to click once and move to the tile I clicked on. It was also frustrating to not be able to turn the dog.

✖️ I don't know what to do! I randomly dig to random depths, and sometimes gold shows up randomly, but I can't find any pattern to it. Time usually runs out with my only having collected one gold. I want to help the cute little dog buy its cute little house, but I can't figure out how to.

None-the-less, good work. I had fun!

Fun game, loved the art though. The game felt nice and cosy to play, and the music made it a calm but intense. I am not so big brain so I didn't get such a good score... But it was still a good time.

Rly enjoyed the game it was very fun the art was great! I would be happy if you can play my game too!

How were you able to create a game with 7 people in 3 days?! That's seriously impressive teamwork!
I loved the art. It is very cute and comfortable to look at. Sfx and music are also spot on.

Great job!

Looks great, but the controls felt a little weird for me

i love this doggo! it’s so cute <3 would love to have him buy a house but i simply couldn’t find enough gold in that short amount of time :( would be great to have some mechanic that adds some time to the timer to fulfill his dream!

Nice art, I like the animations! I found it a bit puzzling that you needed to move to dig into another direction than the one you where facing.

I was obviously also very terrible at playing the game. Tried several times but only got 2 gold at most. No house for my dog. :<

What a sweet little game, I very much like the concept and art, and "golden retriever" is a very creative use of the theme! Very tasteful vibes here. I mostly found coal and bones but I did manage to find 1 gold!

I like the little details like bones span across more than one tile so you can unearth them in multiple places. And the detail of making him play with bones to waste time is very cute, I enjoyed it. 

The tutorial at the start was also very nice. I didn't need to resort to reading the description, it was all very clear.

I wished that there was a possibility to play for longer, perhaps if you find gold you can dig up another garden for another minute. Maybe also an ability to "sniff" that shows the strength of the nearest gold, but sometimes he just sniffs out bones. 

There are a few areas that need polish, for example I found the controls to be very awkward. I also think it shouldn't be possible to walk over dug tiles as it looks a bit strange when you do. 

Overall a fantastic entry, best of luck!

The art is SO good, the website also has a perfect presentation. I liked the idea from the start but I personally wasn't convinced with the controls. Also there's a bug in which the music doesn't start playing until way later for some reason. Very cute and chill game

I like the art of the game!

The game is cute and the title clever, but I expected diggings would limit your path, which didn't matter actually.

Art and music are so perfect for the game, made the experience really enjoyable :)

I loved the art style especially the tutorial. nice music it fits the game very well

It's a cool game with nice art. Good job :)

Really nice art and funny idea. It's a very polished little game for a game jam, well done !
