Coin-Ops
Remotely control a robot who must race to collect treasure from mysterious caves before rival treasure hunters clean them out first. Your robot can jump, shoot and collect magic gems that will help protect it on the journey.
- Use the control stick or arrow keys to move
- Use the jump Button or spacebar to Jump
- Tap the screen to shoot at rival explorers
- Collect all the coins to progress
- Collect blue gems to become invincible for a short time
- Scan the room for items and obstacles before beginning to explore.
- There are infinite lives, but the level resets if you die and you cannot progress without collecting ALL of the coins.
- The in-game user interface will include the coin counter and the mobile controls for the game

The first thing I noticed was that the game crashes while trying to close any of the main menus. While playing the game, I noticed that the enemies don’t really pose any threat. Though the player does die upon colliding with an enemy, I think it would be more fun if the enemies could patrol and/or chase the player around. I liked the use of the cross-platform inputs! I think having that option on screen makes it easy to imagine what playing this on mobile would feel like.
I don't know if it just isn't the type of game for me, but I had a very difficult time getting into it. This might have been due to the controls being a little wonky with jump and shoot being the same button on the computer. I really like the idea of a game in which the levels are randomly generated and infinite, but I ran into a few where they had odd designs and were a bit difficult to get around. I love rogue like games though and would love to see the game developed a bit more.
