River of Gemstones

💎River of Gemstones💎 is a fun 2D auto-scrolling game where you play as a prospector collecting jewels in a river.

Collect valuable emeralds and rubies as you sail across the River of Gemstones. Fight obstacles of rocks and hungry piranhas with fireballs. Compete for the high score!

WASD: Move around

Fireballs are automatically launched and can break rocks. Collect jewels to gain points, and avoid running into obstacles and losing points. 

TIP: If you collect jewels as soon as they spawn, you can get almost double the points.
