The game is local multiplayer. Each player mines gobcoin$, the winner is the one who has the most at the end of the time.

You can pay goblins with your gobcoin$, they will take the router of the other player who will then have to kick them out to re-establish his connection.

The internet connection is "unstable".

Sorry I have no friend so I played alone :( But seems fun

I would love to play it with a friend, but it seemed quite fun on my own :)
I love how you can get a bunch of goblins to annoy the other player!
I guess if you play it with a seconds player the tutorial message goes away faster. For me it stayed to long on the screen.

@tekk @pythorogus there is a single player mode, but the tutorial is 2 player (you can still finish it alone). I decided to force multiplayer during the tutorial to incite people to play with a friend.
Thanks for trying the game still!

Pretty good, thank you. It gave an inspiration to me.

I can imagine this would be quite fun to play with someone, however there was a bug that I noticed, after having picked upon a bonus and then trying to recover my router, and then grabbing another bonus, only the first seemed to apply, and the bonus stayed above my head (was trying to do as much as possible in one small run). Additionally, I think having an option to hold down the button to mine the coins would be nice, I don't mind button mashing, but I think it would detract from mutiple games played as it can get quite tiring after a while.

@odakine hey thanks for your feedback! I'm gonna be honest with you about the bonus bug thingie: I thought that nobody would actually get two bonuses in row so I just went with it and took the lazy route... as for button mashing, i didn't think about that. I won't change the game during the rating session so I hope future players won't get carpal tunnel syndrome because of me ._.

Overcooked style, I love it! this plays well and is easy to understand. the goblins are perfectly annoying and I love your SFXs

Fun playing with two players on the same keyboard.
