The meta-narrative of this game is just awesome. It deserves shout out just for that alone! Slick controls, nice sound effects, and although Mechanically in terms of overall gameplay criteria it is a little bit lacking, but when we take into consideretion how the mechanics fit the game's theme it is really fitting and awesome, so I'm not going to make a problem out of that.
Also somebody already said that, but the difference between "normal life" music and slot machine music is both genius and depressing :D
Very good job!
