Grandpa's Super Summerbreak Hobby by plexium.nerd
Grandpa is at the beach for a week with his new metal detector, ready to probe the depths for treasure! You have seven days to find enough treasure to pay your bus fare back home.
This game requires only the use of the mouse and clicks. When you hear the metal detector go off, click to dig up what you find. Grandpa doesn't want to think about where to go, so at the start of every day you need to set way-points for him.

Error: Couldn't load project data at path ".". is the .pck file missing?
If you've renamed the executable, the associated .pck file should also be renamed to match the executable's name (without the extension)
use @sicosiber to ping me when you get the upload fixed, and I'll try it out!
Here's my notes from playing for if you decide to go further with it outside of the game jam and are looking for any sort of player feedback:
- A shop to spend my money on would be really cool (detector range, visual indicators when I get close to stuff, giant circles that appear in the general area of where buried items are etc.) You already have a money system, so it seems like you had some sort of plans to add that anyway.
- You have a lot of funny old person dialogue where he's just talking to himself, and it made me want more of that, like maybe if you go talk to the old shop owner he could tell you extremely long winded descriptions of all the items or something (just a goofy thought)
- If grandpa reaches the end of the waypoints before the energy runs out, it would be nice to place new ones.
All in all, very fun game! Great job, especially within the crazy time limit!
Maybe add some upgrade to buy, and things to spend your money on. (more mouvement, better radius etc..)
Great jobs guys.
