I got through two days in game and couldn't find anything. I spoke to all the NPCs I saw and explored what map was available to me. The game is visually great, I love the vibe you have going! I little tutorial and spot where the player can dig an item to understand how the game works may go a long way here. I couldn't find any simmering dots.

Ahh yep good shout, a tutorial area showing what the shimmer looks like is a great idea! Were you using the magnifying glass at all? I'm just realising we didn't explicitly state you need one of the other tools to see the dots! I'll add that to description now. But yeah in any case, having a small area where its taught what to look for sounds like a great post-jam addition. Thanks for checking it out and the feedback! :D
