A rather poorly made version of cookie cutter that has apparently been spammed to every single possible jam that exists.

A fun, addicting, little game. I liked the upgrade mechanics.

Nice idle game, and I would love to see this gold rush theme expanded. Like rare Wild West themed coins that appear randomly, etc.

I love idle games so I was a fan of this one immediately. I would've liked some more mechanics rather than just spam clicking the gold coin and buying auto clicker guys, but I think it's a good base to build off of and explore new mechanics. Great job!

Thanks! Yeah I think I kept the scope so small just to make sure I actually put something out, but I've been experimenting with actual upgrading mechanics, a better UI/layout and all the other things that are pretty standard in idle games. I might keep building on this for more than just the game jam space, i think it could become a fun way to kill a lot of time. I appreciate your supportive words.
