That being said, I present Triple Nickel

Recommended hardware: 

Triple Nickel runs on Windows. A Windows laptop capable of supporting two external monitors is recommended as the Live Leaderboard can be displayed on one, score can be taken on the main laptop screen, and the third can show the Progress Tracker during the game then victory screen. However, three monitors are not required. Any Windows computer can run the program.

While Triple Nickel is free to use for everyone, we do accept donations. Development is expensive! If you support what we got cookin', consider making a donation during checkout!
