Good take on the theme. A simple yet challenging game! I had to be quite gentle with the arrow keys to ensure that the loot doesn't fall of the ship. Liked the music, it's quite catchy. Thanks for the info about making the resolution smaller btw, had to do that to get the game to fit on my screen. Some sort of power ups, or combo for catching a lot of loot might be cool to implement.

Fun little game. It would be nice if the coins were a bit bigger and it's kinda hard to carry more than 1 item at a time
