Money Hog

"Oh no, an evil witch has turned you into a pig! You have to collect a million dollars (two million, if playing on hard) before midnight, otherwise you shall remain a pig forever!"

Money Hog is an action arcade platformer thing. The goal is to collect one or two million dollars (depending on the chosen difficulty) without dying. 

Rules:

• By collecting coins you can increase the base bonus multiplier, which increases the amount of points you gain by collecting more coins or killing enemies. 
• If you can kill multiple enemies in a row without touching the ground or getting hit, you gain a score multiplier.
• Gems will give a lot of points, especially if you have a good multiplier.
• Stars will make you invincible for five seconds and when the star powerup is active, your score multiplier does not drop to zero if touching the ground.
• Hearts will recover one hit point.
• If you hit the bottom of the screen, you are dead.
• Getting above the top of the screen does not kill you immediately, but if you remain there for three seconds, you die.

Controls:

Gamepad controls are listed inside the parentheses:

• Arrow keys (or dpad/analogue stick): move the player character
• Spacebar/Z (or (A) ): jump
• Down + Jump: jump down from a bridge (only works on a bridge!)
• Left Ctrl/X (or (B)/(X) ): headbutt
• Enter/Esc (or (Start) ): pause

Keyboard keys might vary on depending on your locale. If you have a non-QWERTY keyboard, Z and X keys might be the keys on the same location, i.e. on the bottom-left part of the keyboard, but the keys itself might be different.

Gamepad controls are not explained in-game, unlike keyboard controls, since I ran out of space.

Known bugs:

1. If you beat the game, the "record" score does not get updated (i.e. if you collect a million dollars in the normal mode, and then start a new game, your record score is not set to a million dollars for some reason)
