It's a bright sunny day at the beach and you just picked up a new metal detector. But, it comes with this annoying voice that claims its there to help you. With how hot it is, you don't mind the guidance to help you avoid wasting energy on fruitless digs.

PS. Note from Marlon:
With me on your side, there's no reason not to get a perfect 1000/1000 score. How? I'm always right.

Confused? (SPOILERS)

The limitation in this jam was “The instructions are a lie.”

Marlon tries to give accurate reads, but they aren’t always correct. The player must trust their gut and pay close attention to anything which might reveal the truth.

I thought this was a really fun submission, way to use the jam limitation to max potential. Also love the art style. :')

oy boy, so many things that are aren't right here ....

the lot are completely random, incomprehensible, the music is ok. the metal detector take too much space on the screen but the worst is the sound effect ... it's , just bad .... why ? but why use those ??

thanks for sharing, but there is no fun in this game...
