Lock in!
The hard part is done. The money is yours. Now you've got to survive getting out with it: one locked door at a time.
Armed with nothing but steady hands, the vault dial moves against you. A needle sweeps the wheel while gates snap open and shrink shut. Click or press Space the instant the needle finds an open gate, and time it tight for the bigger payout.
Chain clean hits to build your combo, brave the boss vaults, and cash in real money the tighter you cut it. And whatever you do, DON'T GET CAUGHT!!!
The Controls are Simple
Click (LMB / RMB) OR Spacebar!
Hit it when the needle's inside the gate.

Tips and Tricks [Spoilers! ]
**only see them if you're stuck
Missing still leaves you a short invincible window. You can't lose another life during it, but you can still land gates and score.
Combo consistency usually beats greed. A steady multiplier compounds across the entire run.
Listen for audio cues to help time your needle.

[SPOILER] Stuck on the Slime Boss? A couple tricks that helped me:
1. Split the small slimes up, don’t juggle both at once.
When the big slime spawns two smaller ones, fully finish one (including anything it spawns) before touching the other. One at a time gives you way more control over your timing.
2. Use your invincibility window to eat multiple misses as one.
(If you’ve got 2+ hearts) Once you lose a heart, you’re briefly invincible — and during that window, a second miss won’t cost you another heart. So if several (or all four) small-slime gates are about to close on you at once, let them all close together during that invincible window instead of panicking to save each one individually. You’ll eat it as a single heart lost instead of two or three.
the mechanism is fun, feels like could add more sound effects but overall is really good
has the potential to become a music game maybe?
We were torn between making is a rhythm game and although it has some traits, we ultimately went away from the idea!
Simple but very fun game! Took me a couple runs to realize waiting longer gives you more points, I was trying to finish the levels as quickly as possible!
We have a leaderboard for both approaches! <33
YAAAAAYYYY #1 combo!
Congrats!! I was hoping I could hold #1 for a little bit!
Really addictive game! I loved it :)
