Simple but fun! Music is really nice and chill.

i love the title screen sound. man i wish i could afford an upgrade before 1000 gems. it takes too long to get 1000 gems! i want to see how the game progresses. the sprites could be better but the feel of the game is good. i like how the gems go up into the bag, and it does inch towards that vamp survivors feeling of addiction

Quite a nostalgic and fun game concept.
The gems going into the bag and falling out of your bag was a nice feedback loop.
Did not get to the 1000, I thought going deeper would give more valuable gems, but that didn't seem like the case, just more enemies.

@strong99 More valuable gems have a chance spawn the lower you go, it's just not very generous at the moment. I added the Gem values to the post "Green = 1 Blue = 5 Red = 20 Silver = 50 Gold = 100" it can help to ignore the lower values
