[Free][Game] Golden sand

[vpvelev]

Hello gaming masters!
I present to you my first game for Android phones - Golden Sand.









The game is lightweight and unpretentious, but I think the gameplay is interesting and the levels are not easy.
The player is controlled by arrows. At first glance, this seems difficult, but the trick is not to press the screen, and you just have to slide your finger down the arrows.
If you run out of life, then when you choose "LAST GAME" you get 2 lives and a chance to move forward from the level you have reached.
The game has ads through unobtrusive banners on top that do not interfere while you're playing.

I will be happy to learn your feedback and recommendations. This will help me a lot in the future.
Thanks!

I notice that many young people and children play mobile games that do not want a lot of thinking, just shoot the enemy and that's it. It is important to have polished and shiny objects and special effects.
On the contrary, I created a game in which the beauty of the graphic elements is not in the foreground. I've made some moments in the game to think about before you go about doing anything.
Although the card is one, the enemies and the gold to be collected appear in a random way that requires the player before he starts, build a strategy and determine the best way to go.
Enemies have no AI, and they move in a random way, which makes them even more dangerous

A few words about the management and movements of the man.
Do not press the screen or click on the arrows! Just slide your big fingers over the arrows.
So after a few minutes of training you will be going through the levels very quickly.
Besides, when you select "Last Game" and if you do not have lives, you are given 2 lives to continue from the level you have reached.

Wow, this looks really original and interesting. Best of luck. I also agree with the idea of putting more thinking into games and less boom boom boom. (although guiltily my first game was actually listed as a "shoot-em-up"...looks around shiftily). May I ask what kind of marketing you are doing to get your game out there? I've posted on 5-6 forums like this, it isn't easy to get going.
Good luck!

Thanks, mbrown730!
This is my first game and publication and I'm still learning.
And I have posts in several forums.
It is really very difficult to start ...

I made a video of the game from 0 to 10 level.

Great game!
I played this game on AppleII in 1985. Then it was called Gold Rush as far as I can remember.

The game feels very simple. Good for passing time.
