This is so minimal I only had about 2 hours to work on it due to personal obligations this weekend. And those 2 hours started with 30 minutes left in the Compo, so I missed the Submission deadline too. Oh well; I can change this to a Jam entry if you want.
I'm submitting it anyway because I want to finally submit *something* for an LD. Hopefully I'll have more time for this next round.
My mother-in-law has complained about modern slot-machine games all being those 5-reel monsters with lots of zany paths, etc. -- so I thought it could be neat to make a simple one for her. This is not that game. But maybe someday it could be.
Well it's interesting - I spammed it until I got in the negative and gave up, thought there might be a "you lose!" or something. But, eh, fits the theme technically but a bit boring. Bells, whistles, and a sense of risk versus reward is what I think makes slots fun, so I think those might be the minimal things to make an enjoyable slots experience, which this unfortunately does lack. But, cool anyway!
A finished game! 100% on theme! That's still uncommon on LD (I've failed 3rd time in a row to provide a finished product ;) ). You're definitely over the average!

I'm glad that you finished something. Try to get more time next time. Good luck.
