Shovel Pirate

A very short and sweet platformer with a focus on finding hidden treasures in the level. Find all of the gems to unlock a secret ending! Overall I liked this game despite it being a short experience. You get what you pay for, and it's an absolute steal when it's on sale. My only real criticism is that there should be some sort of indicator which levels you've found hidden collectables in on the level select screen.

While it only takes 30 minutes to 100% the achievements, It's fun and cute and fine to pick up on a sale.

tiny, but fun!

I really like this game. It might be short but I think it's definitely worth the price for this fun and happy chunky pixel game. I'm looking forward to seeing more Steam games from the dev in the future.

[h1]A Lovely Littel Gem Hunting Game[/h1] Since this is a short game, I'm gonna write a short review. This game is just lovely. It's the definition of short and sweet. You play a little pirate with a shovel. Your goal ist to platform your way to the end while trying to collect gems and find secrets. The visuals are cute, the music is calm and fitting and the difficulty leans more towards the easier side. There are 15 levels to complete and you can finish and 100% the game in about an hour (took me around 50 mins). The price of 3 bucks is also alright in my opinion. Where I live, you cant even get a frozen pizza for that price. So it seems fair. There you have it. Its a cute and short platform, for little money. A perfect game for in between or when you are waiting for other games to load. :) [i]If you've made it this far, then thanks for reading! :) I hope you have a wonderfull day! Cheers![/i]

So short, it should be free says it has 15 levels but considering previous games from this dev, the levels should be long right? nope. for comparison you can buy both Toree games for less and get more play time and still have money left for a third game if you liked this game, just play the mobile games from the same dev, they're free, longer and better. Air attack has i-frames so you can short hop and spam it to become invincible Literally no replay value whatsoever, i dawdled around and still beat this with every gem in 30 minutes I bought this game mainly to support the dev but that doesn't mean i will hold back in my review, hopefully it gets an update where it gets more content and maybe a new playstyle for your character

A nice cute short game with fun visuals and polished gameplay, feels like a twist on Shovel Knight where the shovel is a much more central part of the game not just a clever weapon. I do wish the grounded attack was a little quicker, for most of combat I ended up using the jump attack since it came out way faster, but other than that I really have no complaints. An hour of gameplay feels pretty fair for the price and I loved the unique treasure map mechanics, great stuff!

It's a nice little indie game I can recommend. The game is really short, I 100%ed it after approximately 40 minutes. The little puzzles are nothing new and innovative, you probably have seen those in other platformers. That's totally fine tho, it doesn't try to reinvent the wheel. And I have to praise the charming artstyle, super cute. Just give it a try and enjoy the little pirate adventure! :3

A cute game, but overall it seems like a art pack hack.
