The link to the game doesn't show a game, shows a 404 error...

I'm sorry but I have absolutely not understood ... it lacks can be some explanation?

At the start at was a little lost but once i got the gist of it i played 'till the end. I do feel sorry for every little coins that were used as a shield and died in my defence. A good game overall :)

Thanks! After this jam ended, I'm trying to make this game compatible with tablet, and even though my feeble attempts have not suceeded, I bet it will work extremly well so I might put it on the app store/google play

Also the reason I didn't put any form of text explaining it was because I felt it would be too boring. I have tested it with many people, and once they had figured you can fuse stuff they understood the whole game.

The good thing about games is that we can play around with things we don't have in real life. Like spaceships, muscle cars and money.

I had a lot of fun and frustration playing this game a gazillion times. A very nice and novel idea. Sometimes the simple concepts work best.

Cool concept (even though I don't really know the value of these coins).

I wish the game had eased you into it a bit more, by having you create some of the smaller coins first.

When my dad(who also wrote the music) playtested the game, he told me he didn't quite understand the values too, but I personally think that doens't matter. Because if it did, 3 pennies make a dime(makes sense)

I was super confused at first but after experimenting for a bit I got it and I did quite enjoy the game. I think the coins being combined might be a little buggy, sometimes I'd have to keep moving coins around into each other before they'd eventually combine but overall I really like that concept and had fun with it. Well done :)

I love combining games! Would have played on if you had more levels. Great job!

I wiil be more playable on a tablet but it's a nice game

dusho 2019-04-30 17:37

amazing game, really good idea and really well done!

chrisdugne 2019-04-30 17:45

the bullets aim the biggest coin or I feel unlucky ;) nice mood, and too difficult with a trackpad

chrisdugne 2019-04-30 17:46

And yes maybe split the steps for the tutorial, I started playing with the big coins before the little oones

I needed a moment but then it was a surprisingly fun game! Really cool combination of different mechanics and incorporating physics as well. Well done.

Nice original game with cool sounds effects. Need more levels as you keep working on it!

weine 2019-05-02 17:45

Wow! A very original idea tightly connected to the theme and well executed. Unexpectedly hard, but still fun to play. Well done!

sparkysam5 2019-05-05 04:48

Bit short but made up for it with the music!

edevjogos 2019-05-06 01:47

Fun and original idea, i've enjoyed it.

miltonsilva 2019-05-06 10:25
