Goblin Coffee Break
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, Linux, and Android
The goblins have returned to work as they have returned to chaos.
This game features:
- Blowing things up
- Grabbing bouncing piles of cash
- 1-4 player couch multiplayer!
Get points for surviving the longest and/or looting. Watch with horror as your dynamite bounces off of somebody else's dynamite in midair and lands on top of you and blows you up.
Controls:
A,B,C throw dynamite. Holding the button longer throws further. Holding UP or DOWN while throwing changes the trajectory a bit.
Technical:
This is a Sega Genesis/Mega Drive rom. It supports 4-player using the EA "4 Way Play" protocol (also available using the Team Player version 2). It should work on real hardware using a flash cart or in emulation. I recommend Genesis Plus GX.

Hello Safety Stoat Studios, you have made many new nice games to Mega Drive. I played them all and included them in my new "Gameplay of New Mega Drive/Genesis Games from October 2023 to 2024" video along with all the other recently released Mega Drive/Genesis games.
Thanks! I appreciate the coverage

I noticed a nice little detail in the high score screen. It's an illustration from Arthur Rackham, an amazing illustrator from long ago, and one of my favorite artists. Very nice touch. I also noticed some of your new music in the game, and I think it's a perfect fit. Congrats on everything coming together good sir. As for the game, it's fun and quick to learn. Reminds me of a couple of classic arcade games, (Three Stooges and Food Fight) but with a more lethal flare.
Haha! Thanks! This was my first exposure to Rackham. He came up when searching for cool public domain goblin art.
Yeah, he did full color plates for books. That was back in the day when the illustrations were on separate pages in color that were inserted into the book. He also did tons of etchings that ended up being black and white spot illustrations all throughout his books.
