Very nice game! I like the art style and the humorous theme.
Though the movement could use some improvements, it just feels unresponsive and too linear. You should try to use an easing function. And it seems like you forgot to multiply guards’ direction by delta time, because they move at very small steps if the game is running at low FPS.
Thank you so much! I definitely have some regrets about how I implemented the movement. Hopefully I'll be able to get back to making some improvements on it. Thank you for the feedback :)
Nice game ! I love the drawing style, and the gameplay is really well executed ! In my opinion it's very hard to design a puzzle type of game, but I can see you put a lot of work into making every level work !
Thank you so much! I wish I had time to make more levels haha ^.^
Amazing xD Love the art style
Thank you!! :)
Phenomenal art style and the gameplay! ^^
Thank you!! ^.^
Nice game!! Music fit well, nice art style, and interesting interpretation of the theme :)
Thank you so much!
Really cool game, absolutely love the main screen and character design! Good entry! :D
Thank you! :)
If you remember me you know I was looking forward to playing this! (And also seeing a devlog about it) So yeah I am glad I could play it now and it was great. Nice interpretation of the theme. :)
Of course I remember you! Thank you for playing and the nice words :) Im really struggling to manage my time with game dev, youtube and life haha teach me your ways!
I am 100% the worst teacher on that because I rarely do game dev anymore. It is so hard doing so many things at once. I feel you. I'll have to find some solutions soon aswell. Probably just creating a plan for the whole week is the best way. Some days you do game dev, some days YouTube, everyday life! So you can invest a little bit of time into everything. :)
Yea I agree, I think scheduling would be a good way to go about it! Hopefully I can get this devlog out soon ^.^
hype c:
Its a fun game:D though i had trouble seeing the connection to the theme
Yea the theme is not as prominent as I had hoped -oops! It's only the fact that when you move, the police move. So it feels like you are playing both sides. Thanks for playing!
OOOOH NOW I SEE IT
Other than the fact that this doesn't fir the theme this is perfect.. I loved playing it.. The music kept me going.. The level s were easy and the controls were straightforward.. A Solid Entry to the jam.. Good Job :)
I had to slap this part together super quick to make the game feel complete haha Thanks for playing :)
Awesome game! Graphics are good and maps are well setup. The sound effects just fit so perfectly!
Thank you so much! :)
Awesome game Midnight! The music is great for the theme of the game!
Thank you!! :D
Music fit perfectly! Graphics and sounds are great! Good job!
Thank you so much!
Really nice gameplay and the music is wonderful, although I can't really get the interpretation of the theme. Overall, a wonderful game. Well done.
Haha yea the theme seems a bit weak now that I think about it. It was supposed to feel like you're playing both sides because the cops move when you do! Thanks for playing :)
question: how did you achieve the movement and what was the relation to the theme
i really enjoyed the game it was fun playing
Hey there! So I didn't do movement as efficiently as I could. I just multiplied a vector by the direction that the user inputs. If they make a valid move, then let all the police move one step on their given route. Definitely should have gone for a snappier solution. About the theme - it was supposed to feel like you're playing both sides since your input affects both the robber and the police! A bit weak on the theme now that I think about it, oops XD Thank you for playing!
this game is really interesting and fun. Well done
Thank you!!
Nice simple mechanic and I really like donuts :)
Thank you! Mmmm I havent eaten a donut in so long T.T haha
