Detectorists by gamezero

[raw]
made by gamezero for Ludum Dare 57 (JAM)

A treasure-hunting game that's a love-letter to BBC's The Detectorists show. The local metal detectorist group has organised a big rally on a lovely summer day. Compete against 4 other enthusiasts to find the most treasure (and get it all on the finds table before 5pm!) Coils to the soil people - make sure you recycle all your can-slaw!

Environment and characters are from Synty's Polygon series, ambient sounds from freesound.org, animations from mixamo. I'd recommend putting on a playlist seeded by Johnny Flynn's Detectorists theme tune.

Controls are WASD or arrow keys. Find treasures by looking for the strongest signals. Don't forget to get your treasure registered at the Finds Table before 5pm for it to count to your total score.

Fixed the material problems - hope you enjoy!
