One of my favorite games for the iPhone is Game Dev Story, an adorable and addictive game by Kairosoft that puts the player in the role of managing a team of video game developers.
Something about Noodlecake Games’s upcoming title, Bitcoin Billionaire, reminds me a lot of Game Dev Story. But befitting a game by the creators of Super Stickman Golf, it looks a lot funnier.
In Bitcoin Billionaire, you play a bitcoin samurai, single-mindedly harvesting virtual currency as fast as you can tap. The core gameplay seems to involve upgrading your gear and pimping out your office, so that every time you tap on the screen, you harvest more Bitcoins.
According to Touch Arcade, Bitcoin Billionaire will also feature a weird, opt-in ad system, giving out in-game awards for looking at banner ads and videos. That sounds a little annoying, but it’s completely optional, at any rate.
The one thing Bitcoin Commander won’t let you do is harvest bitcoins in real life: that’s not a feature that seems likely to get past Apple’s App Store review team. Dare to dream, though: if harvesting bitcoins was this fun in real life, I might have a second job.
Bitcoin Billionaire is currently awaiting approval on the App Store, so expect to see it sometime in the next couple of weeks.
