The bank needs money for ridiculous, made-up things, like “fiduciary duties” and “bonds”. You, as a piggy bank, need money to live. Who’s got the moral high ground here?

“Robin” is my 11th Ludum Dare entry and the first one I straight-up did not finish in time—a *lot* of the game is there, except for a few key things that would make it… more of a traditional game. Nothing can hurt you, and only one of the types of enemy will actually disappear when it dies. Despite all that, I’m proud of what did make it in, and I encourage you to try what turned out to be a much easier—almost relaxing!—arcade shooter than it was intended to be. :)

Post-Jam update! I’ve made a new version that has a bunch of the gameplay that was missing from the original; if you’d like to try that, it’s on the Itch.io page below. In the new version, shooting coins reduces your health, but you can pick them up again to regain it.

Controls:
- WASD to move
- Mouse to aim
- Left click/hold to shoot individual coins quickly
- Right click/hold to shoot several coins slowly
