Took me a while to really get the game. Is this an established kind of gambling machine? It was surprising, when I was almost out of coins and went afk a bit to eat, to come back to having won a lot of points and coins. But I think the whole thing being quite endless is cool.

Control of the 2 arms on the side is really unintuitive and I swear in my first game start it was broken and both could only be moved in a small radius. I restarted and then later really understood that you have to click and then keep your mouse on top and move your mouse while keeping it on top… keyboard controls would be much nicer, given that it’s mostly a keyboard game (haha) otherwise. With current scheme it also becomes really hard to move the arms while the game is lagging.

Anyways, fun concept and it seems there is room for a lot of crazy stuff

Wow, thanks so much for the VOD and playing my game so long!  I cracked up when you pulled up the top log, it was pulling some crazy stats.  All this is SUPER helpful to me, just watching someone play your game gives you so many insights and ideas you wouldn't get otherwise.

>Is this an established kind of gambling machine?

Yep, they are standard in arcades.  Pretty sure some casinos have ones with real quarters and cash prizes as well.

I was going for a "real world" control scheme, but yeah, they seem to frustrate people more then anything.  I'm thinking of replacing them with buttons instead of levers, which would be easier and more clear to use.


Something else I noticed is you never used you explosive coins!  The shapes below the Save/Load/Options let you throw you special coins you can blow up to push the coins around and stuff.  Just another thing I noticed from your VOD that gives me great actionable stuff to improve.

Anyways, thanks for playing, and especially for streaming!  It was super useful for me.
