The assets used in this are combined in an interesting way with various details sprinkled across the place that made the environment enjoyable to explore.  Was fun to scrounge around for money and satisfying to find a stack of notes after painstakingly picking pennies off the floor lol.  Becoming electric was a creative and cool idea that added some needed variety to the gameplay.  Nice work!

Love robbing the people I'm working for blind. Better not leave your pennies out when I'm around >:}

Fun fact: there was a glitch in development where the sound for food played when you picked up coins. So John was eating pennies lol

The amount of weapons and police/military equipment this guy was hording makes me worried.... Loved the environmental storytelling! the movement felt a little floaty and the camera in the conducting mode was a little disorientating, but aside from that I think this is very well made!

Developer(+1)

Thanks so much! I wish we had one more day to improve the conducting mode user experience, but once you get the gimmick it is really easy, but certainly jarring. Appreciate the feedback! and I loved your game!

''Who put all these active explosives everywhere?'' This was fascinating, A lot of neat ideas, I liked the style and the music was weirdly relaxing, lol.

Lots of new mechanics ive never seen before so really interesting, quite fun! I couldnt find all the money but I got silver trophy

The music on this was electric from the start. I thought that the gameplay was creative and whoever owns that joint John was in has a hoarding problem. I couldn’t progress past the second electricty game even after pressing both buttons. The room button (both the one next to the door and the one under the desk) didn’t seem to work. Apart from the movement feeling a bit sluggish and some screen jitters, you have a really solid concept!

Dayumn, this game is jammin! I love the environmental storytelling and the different gameplay elements. Wish there was some other reason than highscore to collect money. Excellent job overall!

Developer(+1)

Thank you <3  We were originally going to have an office as level select that you could buy trinkets for but it got scrapped when we went with one level. There is also a special non-money non-food collectible out there that was going to be reflected in the office if collected. The collectible is still out there though!

Big up for having a mouse sensitivity setting. Nice assets, but why does the guitar have 2 bass strings on it

Developer(+1)

Because it's a 2 String obviously
