Lucy is a dowser, except she can find all sorts of valuables besides water. Can you find all the valuables in this dump?
There's no real pre-loader so just wait a little bit (it's a really small game so it shouldn't take long).
Arrow keys are the only controls.
Edit: I put up the soundtrack! Get it free in the link (type 0 in price field to do so).

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 fun, I finished the game first time. Loved the music too!!
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.
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!
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 :)
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.

MORE TIPS AND DETAILS AT THE BOTTOM OF THIS PAGE
TEAMS: Teams entering the Jam should pick a single representative to submit your game, or create a team specific account you can share. We currently do not support Team Voting, but sharing an account and together playing and rating games is acceptable.
NOT LOGGED IN?: If you get a message about not being logged in, even though you are, it’s because your web browser cached the non-logged in page. You can fix this by either refreshing your cache or clearing your cache. CTRL+F5 in many browsers. Chrome is a bit more work. Press F12 to enable Developer Mode, then you can right click on the refresh button and select “Empty Cache and Hard Reload”. This option is unavailable if you are not in Developer Mode.
PORTS: Ports to other platforms can be done after the deadline. That said, the sooner you finish your port, the sooner people can play your game, improving your chances of placing in the final results. For best results, provide a Web version of your game, or a Windows version with no dependencies. Also be sure to rate about 20 games to improve your visibility.
MY GAME DOESN’T SHOW UP: If you can’t find your game, it’s usually because the URL to your downloads are missing ‘http://‘. Fix your URLs (http://mysite.com/mygame.zip) and you will show up.
MY GAME CRASHES, IS UNBEATABLE, OR I MADE A TYPO: We allow you to fix crash or win condition bugs after the deadline (in a sense, like “porting” to support more players). We also allow “typo” bugs. I.e. A true that should have been a false, a word that should have been a different word, very tiny changes that you would have caught if you had more sleep. We leave this open to interpretation, but generally speaking your game should be identical to the game you submitted. No new features, just things you messed up last minute. Typos.
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.
