Lovely art style and an interesting take on the theme!

Absolutely love this game! Superb visuals, the theme is on point, and the music matches the frantic mood. Perfect couch multiplayer game. One critique is that you can sometimes eject the coins outside the arena, which means nobody can pick them up again. Requiring a) multiple players and b) controllers may make this game hard to get reviewed, but it's totally worth it!

I love this art, but I have no gamepads and friends. How can I play this game?

Liked so much the art. My suggestions are to add some interface that can count how many coins/life you still have and also a good addition would be something moving around that can draw players urge to get lots of coins (like the imp in diablo).

As those before me have said before, the art is amazing. The theme is on point, and me and my girlfriend had a blast. Great stuff!!! :)

Wanted to play your game but i guess it is only compatible with joystick and with keyboard :(

Very fun game! But it needs at least 2 people, and works with controllers only. The shoot button by default is strange, but bearable. A nice play-on-the-coach game.

Surely this will play very nice against other people, I can already hear all the screams and insults while shooting out their coins. :laughing: Very nice take on the theme. The visuals and music make up a great mood. I also found the shoot button and dash button strange, but you get used to it.

Graphics look great,sound looks good.
Unfortunately I couldn't experience it any further than that. I'm just playing this on lunch break at work and don't have a gamepad handy, or others to play with.
You should really make keyboard/mouse and option and have some sort of single player if you want more people to access your game.
Anyway, I am bookmarking this so maybe I can check it out later.

OMG this game is so funny, very polished and the game sounds feels great!

But maybe creating controls for 2 playes in the keyboard (WASD and Arrows) would it be better, not everyone have controllers (As the game can only be played with 2+ players

I like the art style quite and I liked the twist on the theme. I didn't have an opportunity to play with someone else, but it was fun dashing around and shooting coins by myself. The music and sfx definitely fit the style of your game nicely. Good work!

This art style and the music really reminds me of Overcooked. I love it! Now I want to get a group of people together to have tournaments. Well done!

Multiplayer systems are very interesting, and pigs are very cute.

So this concept is funny and well executed with great visuals, funny sound effect, and music to match the mood. Jams like these make it hard to fully enjoy a co-op and/or PvP game only because quite often the people playing and rating don't have a second person to play with such as myself but I can appreciate the work that was put into all of this.

For as short and simple as it is it delivers on quality. Nicely done!
