Let's Count Coins!

This is a game I created for my nephews to learn how to count U.S. coins. They currently live in the U.K., so it is great for me to keep in touch with them using games like this. There are a lot of little details that I'm very proud of in this game. For instance, the coins give you a hint to their value and turn upright when you hover over them. I'm also fond of Poinky (named by nephews) the Piggybank that guides the players through the game and teaches them about different coins.

Let's Count Coins! was built in Unity, and programmed in C#. For the project, I implimented a customizeable dialogue and animation system.  I made it very easy to create new levels, and also created a mode with a randomized goal and coin collection.
