A game whose story is about getting scammed lol oh dear.
As an experience to tell the story this game definitely works; that much is I think something excellent. Although the purpose is minimum the coins really make the experience of getting scammed that more real.
The music is cute and fits the atmosphere - the fact that you created it from scratch is amazing, even if it is only 8-bit; or at least that's how I feel because I couldn't fit the time to compose in the 7 days of the jam XP
The character sprite I must say is very cute; I love it. You may want to keep this in mind though for future projects: pixel sizes should be constant throughout your game. In your game the pixels for the items are much bigger than say the players and then the buildings have even smaller pixels. Furthermore it seems like you did not scale the sprites by whole numbers. As a result... well... some pixels turn into rectangles. Inconsistent pixel sizes make your otherwise beautiful pixel art looks like a jumbled frankenstein mess XP
