Awesome concept for the game! I really enjoyed the controls – they felt great, especially with the fun sound effects of the coin bouncing around. Great job!

Really cool concept and graphisms, i loved the idea of music when bouncing on platforms ! It would have been cool to have a jump i think 😁 !

Good entry!

One part of this game I really enjoyed was the sound effects and the coin bouncing effects. They added charm, polish, and challenge to the game all at once.

One thing I think would improve this entry is more challenge, or a way to fail. It looks like you maybe intended to include that with the bats, but in retrospect I would suggest shortening the level and use that time to instead add a health bar that is damaged by the bats, or a "stun" mechanic if you run into an enemy. That will engage players more by giving them something to have to work around, and learn how to overcome.

Short and fun. Coin sound is what really made me finish this game. Also my wish came true, nice

This game was really great and you should be extremely proud of what you accomplished! I really enjoyed the level, especially the plinko part of it. I think I would like to see a little danger from the bats, but also, I was a coin so the only thing I should be afraid of is losing value due to inflation. The controls were smooth, the sound was great, and the art was on point.

Yeay! My wish came true! :D Like the change of control feelings if the coin is in water.

Original idea, nice to play, good effects, movement and sounds. It was fun to play but lacked challenges. Thanks

I quite liked the game idea! The feel of playing with a coin is super curious, made it for a very unique experience. The part of the level I most like is when you placed various bats together, and the game feel got some kind of pinball flavor! I think there's some potential in the concept, overall it was a really nice experience! :) thank you for the game.

I really love the idea! It’s simple and fun! I would have loved to see the bats moving or perhaps trying to catch you.GameCompleted.jpg

Great game! I think the scope is nice and small and really well executed! The art looks awesome for a first time pixel artist!

Hahaha, finally I know what happens behind the scene when I throw a coin down a well. Fun game! :-)
