The animation of the main char is good and the musid,sound fxs is very good to but i think you should create another penalty when you have a lot of gold and not only more fireballs. Good entry. congratulations.

Nice, relaxing, arcadish game. It was kinda easy in the beginning, but later on it was really fun. Good job :)
I enjoyed specially how the audio fits with the gameplay. As said above, at first it's too easy but after few rounds the fun starts xD To improve, maybe you could make player's speed related to the amount of gold recollected. Either way, good job guys!
Good game, I enjoyed playing and felt it fits with the theme well.
Cool game. Controls were nice and responsive, simple, but very addicting :)
Simple and relaxing game, nice music and sfx. Good job.
I get 403 on the web game, and that was once I disabled ad block a and watched really long unmutable video ad (otherwise it wouldn't do anything).
The sprites and animations are quite coherent and lovely.
The music is really nice, and the sound effects are not too bad.
Gameplay-wise, the difficulty curve feels about right, but it could be made more interesting, for example, by slowing down movement the more coins you're carrying. This would force the player to consider returning to the truck before they have all the coins. Maybe some special single-use abilities could also help to make it more interesting, such as a shield that you can activate only briefly and needs to recharge.
The visuals and music combined nicely to give this a nice relaxing feel. It ramps up pretty nicely in difficulty. but not unfairly.
This is a simple and okay fun game. The music and sound effects is good. The gameplay is fine, but I would have liked something more to do. But overall a good LD game.
Nice game. I would have liked an indicator of some sort where the fireballs enter the map. Dying close to the edges felt more of a random event that something I could avoid. Fun nevertheless :)
I really like the music for the game. Would have been nice to see more variety in the sound effect department. Maybe it's just me, but does the rate of fireballs actually increase collecting more coins? I didn't notice; I often just dumped them into the trunk in discrete chunks, so I only notice the rate increasing over each progressive level. Nice touch on adding a time limit to putting the coins into the truck, though. It does resolve the problem of constantly dodging the fireball.
Not sure I'm as huge of a fan about the context of the game (depicting a character who literally digs gold doesn't remove the negative connotation of the phrase). I also admit it's too simple for me to be engaging, but the focus on a single experience is much appreciated.
not bad but kinda repetitive after a while. also where does this guy live where there is just random gold sitting around? lol
The music is very good, but I do not think it really fits the game.
The colorful environment left me a bit confused as to the narrative.
The drawing of the main character was very well done, as I see it.
The visual feedback when picking up a coin can be improved. I liked the sound effect when you get the coin.
The visual feedback when you die can be improved too, dying at once seems uncomfortable in this type of game, it would be interesting to have two or three "hit points" before dying.
Other than that, I had a lot of fun trying to complete the levels of the game. Congratulations.
