Piggy bank by Papaver
Description
As a piggy bank, your life is all about money. You need money to get higher up. You also need money to extend your life, so choose wisely as you climb!
How high can you get? Please let us know your highscores. Comments are very welcome. :)
Goal
Try to get as high as possible!
Controls
- Arrow keys: move around
- Space bar: collect a coin you are standing on to increase your health
- R: retry
- P: pause
- M: mute audio
Hints
- You can see your health in the two side bars.
- Collecting coins will increase your health, but you might lose some altitude.
- Your health drops quicker and quicker, so climb as quickly as possible.
- There are some small platforms on the sides for you to rest on while you wait for more coins to fall.
- The direction of your jump depends on your position on a coin.
- Not all coins are created equal.
Issues
Audio might not load the first time... Working on it! You could refresh, and then you might hear some music. (And you can use M to mute it :stuckouttongue: )

Quite a unique take on the theme, liked the idea a lot
Climbed up to 274 meters
@firellon Well done! :)
@thesunshineraven How far did you get? After play-testing all weekend long, I forgot that it's probably quite challenging for new players. ;) A global highscore table would indeed be very nice, I still have to learn how to do that...
@banzi Thank you! Indeed, when you collect a coin, you lose some altitude. That's the price you pay, it's a trade-off. ;) If you're too greedy, you've got a problem! Did you notice the platforms on the side?
