The Coin Game

What Happen!? The game was great a year ago when the dev was solo, now at 1.0 it seems sputtery and the movement glitchy. Bummer.

This game is absolutely amazing. $15 to not have to gamble hundreds of real life dollars is a great deal.

EDIT: Game is still broken, dev has been radio silent two months, under no circumstances should you buy this game. Leaving the old review for, idk what. ******* Welp, I guess it had to happen. The inevitable "This game was great in early access, but 1.0 ruined it." I would like to thank the Dev for adding a branch so people can access the old build still, that's honestly great. And I don't really blame them for this, since it sounds like this is more publisher meddling. I think half of the backlash is coming from calling it 1.0. Because, okay, a new update comes out and there's bug and stuff, it's a small game from, I'm pretty sure, a one person dev team. Understandable and inevitable. But this is supposed to be 1.0. And I hate doing this, because I love this game and I can see the passion that's been poured into it. And the new content looks great and I really want to enjoy it, but as is, the game is just really off kilter. Hopefully things get straightened out over the next few weeks and I can come back to see the game working properly again, at which point I'd happily recommend the game to people again. But as is, it's pretty busted and I hate to see that from a game I've had a lot of fun with.

I don't care if it gets multiplayer, because this game is my ESCAPE from other people.

It is exactly what it looks like: an arcade simulator where you can play virtual arcade games pretty darn similar to the ones you'd find at Dave n Busters. There's no overarching story or time-sensitive mission system, just you and arcades. There's lots of variety to the arcade games, and the prizes are adorable. If you want more bite to your game, you can activate a Survival mode that requires you to earn money for the arcades (instead of getting it for free whenever you want) with odd jobs and you need to eat every once in a while to prevent starvation. There's something for everyone in this game! :D

shame. Can't recommend in this current state. Seems like the dev got screwed by people he trusted but the product suffered. Hoping for a fix and continued development one day so this can go back to a thumbs up but I need to go with whether I would actually recommend someone buy the product which at this time is probably not, despite all the things I had been enjoying about it prior to where we are now.
