Wow I have never been so afraid of a red circle! Well done on creating that intense feeling of moving around and trying not to get spotted. good job!

Thank you very much!

I feel like I'm playing a low cost Metal Gear Solid. Super AI, with round, uncertainty/certainty, capture! Good challenge for the player!

The sound effects are great lol I like how the game is a careful balance between really challenging, but also forgiving. The physics and mechanics feel very responsive and solid.

Good job!

Thank you very much =)

YEAH!

Very well designed, with some great stealth puzzles which were tricky but fair. Showing the player the direction the enemies were going to face in from every point is a brilliant idea, and really allows for thoughtful and considered play, although I still managed to mess up frequently haha

I really liked the whiteboard-style graphics, and felt that they were very well suited to the gameplay as the simple presentation made it very easy to read what was happening at a glance. I've always loved the Rayman "yeah" sound effect too :)

Thank you very much =)
I always really loved the energy in the Yeah sound (most likely a lot of nostalgic things going on), but it has so much energy in it.

Really like the simple art style and colors here -fun stealth play and good level design too -great job on this! :D

Thank you very much =)
It is my first public release of any game and it really means a lot to me.
I was actually finding it hard to do the level design, so I am happy that it worked out!

YEAH!! :D

I really love the design of the game. It is a simple 2D stealth game with only WASD. This way the player can focus on avoiding detection and study enemies' patterns.

Though I am stuck at maybe level 8 (can't go back to main menu to check) It is just impossible to go in and push the button and come back out without being detected.

My suggestion would be to add a way to speed up time so we don't have to wait for the enemies for so long

Thank you very much =)
That is a good suggestion. I don't know if I have time before the end of the jam, but it definitely is in my list. I have actually been told level 8 is to hard twice now, so it will need to be changed! 

And maybe I should have an esc button and a small menu in the level to go back to the main menu. It shouldn't be to hard and actually give a lot to game!

Look forward to the next update when I can finally finish the game !!
