Have fun out there!
@brandon-n, It sounds like you're trying to play the game through your phones browser, correct? If that's the case, Unity WebGL is not supported on mobile browsers. Please use a desktop browser or sideload the .apk to an android device.

I feel like I could go on longer than this, but the controls stopped working at some point and I couldn't drag the coins anymore. It is a relaxing game once you understand how to play. Also found it hard to distinguish between the blue and orange and the yellow and pink coins when they are near the top center of the screen because of glare from the light on the table.
I dont know how you guys get such high scores
Oh, and I got 318 points :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:
I have rated your game, but all of my feedback was captured in the stream.

First try after the quality of life update while playing on newgrounds. The click/drag detection still feels a little off. If I move my mouse even a little while clicking it tries to drag instead of creating new coins. Still fun to play! Keep coming back to this one!
Can't wait for the leaderboard to come online =P
:thumbsup:

Please delete this game. It's too fun.
Srsly though, this games got great albeit initially confusing mechanics, and fits theme really well.
If I could vote on games you know I'd give you guys the highest marks. Good job!!
Please let me know, this game seems very fun and I can't wait to play it.
I'll ping you here if it gets fixed, though.
Good luck, Don't forget to take a look at ours if you don't mind and see what it's like when we just focused on graphics in this game jam!
