Retro Relics

4 major bugs in the last hour, i'll drop that game This is an indie game that i would have loved to like and recommend, it's full of good ideas, i love the concept, but it's NOT TESTED. Bugs in a game are a plague, i'm pretty unlucky when it comes to bug usually but testing is my job and i can't allow this - No possibility to rebind, i play on an AZERTY keyboard, not a QWERTY. Fine, i used the controller. Then in the last 5 minutes before i write this review, i suddenly couldn't change items (normally with RT / LT , not activating) - I once clicked on the collection to the end => Game crashed with a developper window. I guess the last arrow to change pages wasn't intented to exist... I lost one hour of gameplay, because the game only auto saves when you enter zones but not your own house... - minor bug when you can't get the item even if it's completely free of dirt. Workaroung is dig deeper some dirst and the games allows you to get the item : i guess it's a hitbox problem - finally i have a major bug on my actual quest. I use the radar to detect artefact, not the metal detector which is absolutely useless after the 1rst hour. Why bother to use a manual detector when you can buy a radar auto detecting everything in a radius? Oh yeah if i remember correctly the radar was intended to show only artefact you don't already own : it doesn't work. It shows everything I used the radar to detect the quest item, i the proceed to try and dig EVERYTHING in the zone, and i can't seem to advance the quest. When i went back to the quest hole, it still shows the signal as i i didn't dig it. I did. I got the item. the game bugged. I'm guessing this is why i can't seem to advance the quest? i get the artifact signal on a tile that is already dug I know i can reset the zone but i won't bother, it's a EA game at best, very, very unpolished. I like indie game, i like and respect solo game dev, but you still have to produce a valid product at the end...

I just brought those turles back to the beach...what a lovely game <3 I like turtles!

hi dev can you consider making a black outline to the shining of treasures ? i cant see anything on the beach map

nice simple gameplay thats easy to pick up, but i cant recommend it because the dialogue is blatantly ai generated. no ai disclosure either. i wouldve preferred amateurish writing over "its not x, its y" "you didnt just x, you y" over and over. its also rather buggy; if you do pick this game up, i suggest making it a habit to save whenever you find a quest item or something you want to sell. you never know when your character might freeze, or the game might crash and make you lose progress

After a long hard day of metal detecting I get to come back to my house and dive head first into my pile of relics. 10/10 concussed myself on the dive.

Played the demo, loved it, said I'd buy it on release day, did. Enjoying myself! Lovely game, thanks for scratching my brain itch!

I love this game the music is very relaxing and the gameplay is as well. You can clear Trash to bring back Animals like Turtles to the Beach for coins which I find cute. The only one bad thing I have to say about it is the sparkles for hidden Relics are hard to see on the Beach. This is a great game! ^^

Loving this game so far! I've got jet lag and it is freezing outside and this game has made my evening much nicer! It is very satisfying collecting all the relics (and junk!) and completing the quests. If you are like me and sometimes need a game to just completely relax, play nice and slowly to unwind, this is perfect. I think I am being to be sad when I get to the end!

A simple game about finding lost items from different ages. The game itself is mostly a light grind with some story elements, but it's perfect if you're looking for something short and easy to play without too much mental effort involved. There is also a feature in which you can decorate your house and store the objects you found. There is also replayability in that you can reset areas to go searching for artifacts again. Fair warning, there are several minor bugs which can be visually annoying but don't prevent you from completing the game. For a light game with a simple search mechanic, it's kind of fun.
