What's it About

You want to live an extraordinary life.

You want to own a beautiful, big house.

You want to buy a shiny car.

BUT YOU HAVE NO MONEY.

Summary

As a beggar, you roam the streets of a big city and ask people here and there for some generosity. Every day, your savings add a little bit more, but you are not satisfied.

You know that you are not an ordinary beggar! 
You have a big dream:

 to become
THE BEGGAR KING
! ! ! ! !

You must bravely fight the evil and carefully plan your spendings. One day, you will claim the throne in the realm of beggars!

Rules

1. Collect as many coins as possible by asking the gentleman for change
2. Distract other beggars (your competitors) with your coins
3. Fight the bad guys by hitting them with COINS (because you have amazing arm muscles)!
4. Stay healthy by buying and consuming food from the food truck (or you could scavenge from the trash cans)
5. Buy upgrades at the shop to help you survive!

Upcoming Updates!!!

Updates and new content are arriving soon!!!

Graphics

Here's a little concept design we did a while ago.

We are still unsure where what the new art is going to look like yet but we will update the page as soon as it's ready!!!

Gameplay

A new day&night cycle will be introduced. It comes with a camping system which will keep you busy as you have to carefully stock up food and coins.

More enemies will be there to stop you from reaching the Beggar King status! And of course, enemy AI's will be improved to bring more difficulty.

If the above sounds interesting at all, stay tuned!
