Wizard of Worth by schizoid2k
Help the wizard defeat the demons and their minions with nothing but a pocket full of change!
- Move the wizard to avoid minions.
- The demon cannot be destroyed! The minions can be killed.
- Move your mouse to tell the wizard where to shoot. Use the left mouse button to fire pennies at the minions.
- Collect coins within 5 seconds to build up your net worth... 2 pennies per coin!
The game is over when you are attacked by a minion or demon.
This is my Ludum Dare 44 Entry for the theme "Your Life is Currency".

However, I couldn't make it very far, but that is probably my lack of skills.
Ha, this is generally the part of my comment where I leave criticism, but honestly, this is a really nice little game, without any glaring flaws in design. A couple of things to add might be some game music, and staff/wand upgrades that allow the coins to stay on the floor longer, greater AOE, maybe value multiplier for each unmissed shot, etc...
Thanks to everyone for all the comments... I will definitely check out your games!
@good-enough Great ideas for improvement! Some cool ideas to consider! Thanks!
Nicely done! Reminded me of Geometry Wars in the best possible way.
Fun and well implemented! The controls feels good and I find the base mechanic works well.
I would have been nice to be able to use arrow keys (I had to switch my keyboard from AZERTY to QWERTY to play the game).
It's also great that you added visual and sound feedbacks for almost everything. These are small details that make you game very polished considering this is a compo! :clap: I would have added a visual feedback showing that a coin is about to disappear.
Very good job.
