Snack Shakedown

DESCRIPTION

This is a puzzle game where the goal is to connect a certain amount of snacks that are the same type in a vending machine. Don't be too picky, however, the vending machine only gets more impatient and more hungry.

HOW TO PLAY

Controls

Everything is accessed through the number pad on the right of the vending machine. Hover over the buttons with the mouse and left click them to use the number pad.

                         

Menu

Dispensing the "PLAY" snack starts the game. Dispensing the "LEADERBOARD" snack shows the leaderboard. You can press the "X" button on the vending machine to return to it.

Game

When a game starts the vending machine will randomize the snacks inside. The vending machine will demand a number of a certain snack, which can be found on the paper on the bottom right that says "DEMANDS". You must use the number pad to dispense snacks in order to create a connection of the demanded snack with the correct amount. You can tell the order in which the snacks will dispense by referencing the "STOCK ORDER" paper on the top right of the vending machine. Each snack costs $1, so spend your "BALANCE", found on the screen to the right, wisely. You have only so much time to complete each demand, so look at the screen to see how much time you have left. The number surrounded by asterisks on the screen is your score.

Leaderboard

Thanks to SilentWolf, the top 10 players get to have their missing poster on the wall that displays their position, name, and score (written as "REWARD" on the missing poster). You know you have earned a place on the wall if the vending machine asks for your name after a game. Use the number pad to spell out your name and dispense the "DONE" snack to submit.
