Welcome to the Coins Project

​

Main Goal

Coins was created out of passion and learning during my time studying Games Development & Design at College. It was originally developed as a 2d arcade collect-a-thon for both PC and Android. I always saw potential for it to grow into something more engaging and enjoyable. However, with the demands of University and life. Coins had to be placed on hold & waiting for the right time to start working on it again.

​

 My main goal for recreating Coins is to evolve it. I would like to expand upon the core mechanics and introduce new mechanics  for players.  I also aim to attract a wider audience, all while showcasing the skills and knowledge I have gained since my college days. Ultimately, my hope is that this new iteration of Coins will not only provide an entertaining and addictive gaming experience, but also serve as a demonstration to my growth as a game developer, mixing my past experiences with my current capabilities.

Game Objective

Coins is a fast-paced, retro-style arcade game.

Your goal: collect as many coins as you can in 30 seconds but watch out for bombs! The more coins you grab in a row, the higher your combo, racking up even more bonus points.

Spend your hard-earned coins in the Coin Vault to unlock Perks but choose wisely; you can only buy on Perk per run, so make it count.

Powerups add a twist: each one is a 50/50 gamble.

They might give you an edge or turn the game against you. A quick hand, smart decisions and a bit of luck are all you need to chase that high score!
