Hello everyone! Skylor Here.

Next Fest was a massive success! Nearly 300 people downloaded the demo! Many of you have been submitting feedback and I am making this post to let you know that I am reading all of your feedback! Rather than respond to everyone individually, I figured I would just lay it all out here!

Firstly, it is clear to me that the tutorial elements that I designed are not working as intended and many core aspects of the game are not being conveyed to the player correctly. As a result many players were frustrated without the knowledge needed to play and enjoy the game. In particular, players were often unaware that they could charge shots, unlock equipment, or purchase upgrades.

Some of the feedback provided by players highlighted UI elements as being difficult to notice or hard to understand. Because of this, they will be redesigned to better convey information to the player and help guide new players into understanding how to play properly.

At some point in the future, an updated version of the demo will be released, so be sure to keep an eye on this news feed and wishlist the game! The main build of the game has come a LONG way since that demo was finalized for Next Fest over two months ago and I am very excited to get it into your hands as soon as possible.

Thank you for playing and submitting feedback!

[h3]Hello everyone! Skylor here.[/h3]

I'm excited and proud to say that you can now play Action Coin Pusher! 😁 I’m thrilled to have you dive into all the coin-flipping, bauble-popping madness I’ve been working so hard on. Trust me, this one’s packed with more polish and gameplay goodness than ever! I’ve lovingly crafted a solid 2-3 hours of demo action, filled with the most satisfying coin launches you’ll experience all year! 🔥

The demo is a permanent and standalone experience based on a build from about a month ago. Just a heads up—your save won't carry over to the full game, and there may still be a few bugs (hey, what’s a demo without some surprises?), but I’m offering a special in-game reward in the full release if you’ve played the demo! 🎁

Since I submitted the demo build for Next Fest, I’ve been hard at work crafting new Tables, Classes, Enemies, Bosses, Equipment, Challenges, and Upgrades! 💪 Plus, I completely reworked the movement code and improved the general feel of the game —now the controls feel smoother than ever! It’s all about nailing that moment-to-moment feel, so you can really enjoy smashing through those bauble hordes. 💥

If you notice any bugs or have feedback you want to share, please drop it in the Steam Community—I actually read and appreciate all the feedback I get! 🙏
