IT'S SODA TIME

Coin boys are here, and they love you. They want to spend all their time with you, and are star-struck by the sight of you!

How To Play

Personally I wouldn't really call this a "game", but... it should be a fun, short little... *thing*... yeah... let's just call it a thing for now.
Oh, um, yeah just do what you want, talk to some coin boys, buy a soda, jump off the edge when you're done with everything else you want to do, you'll figure it out. Just try it.

Controls

If you've played video games before, then *you're in luck* because it's basically the same as everything else.
- WASD - Movement
- Mouse - Lookin'
- Space - Jump
- Shift - Sprint
- Left Click - Pick up / Drop *(you should see a little note pop up under the reticle when you can pick something up)*

AND MOST IMPORTANTLY

enjoy!
oh, and be careful. Your actions have consequences.

Like you pointed out I struggled to find the "game" here. It's a kind of an art thing with a great atmosphere, really. Nice graphics.

Absolutely amazing. It's not much of a game, sure, but the feeling of the whole thing is just... amazing. I loved it so much. The take on the theme, the "your life is currency ;)" stuff, the vending machine... the mood and change in the music. I love it!

Funny concept! I like the personality of the coins and the final drama... I'm also amazed that all those grass blades did not result in my computer burning down, so Kudos!

this game is the funniest I played. It hurt me so much when they realized I was up to no good at the soda machine

I put a high score on mood, but i'm feeling so bad for putting theses littles coins in the machine.
That's a great compo game. Short, but bringing feelings. Congrats

This game is a bit short but really cool ! I love the way the coins react to you putting them in the soda machine , and I also really like the music that change when you come near it !

Very great job !
