Really creative idea! The feedback could be better on your actions but hey it's a jam. Excellent work!

Interesting idea, the sound is not good, well done for the submission and the choice of sprites. :)

Interesting concept! Could use some polishing but I'm intrigued to see how this game gets expanded in the future!

Neat concept, but the game definitely could have used some polish. I had a hard time finding the three "downgrades," the sound effect clip got annoying pretty quickly, and eventually I got a Javascript "memory out of bounds error." Also, the signs were too small to read, and the "good guys" moved so slowly that I could just run past everyone.

Still, there's only so much that can be done in 48 hours, so good job!

genuinely very fun, very unique and made something from the concept, although the looping sounds forced me to play the game on mute, regardless i just put on some of my own music and had fun playing, which IMO is what matters.

Admittedly one of the most unique games I played so far. The sound effects are pretty funny and I really like the dashing mechanic. I think that the theme could have been used in a more creative way. I enjoyed playing it so that's what really matters.

Really interesting idea! I was enjoying where the game was going, but had to stop playing due to the audio. The clip that plays when a person sees you gets really old fast - it's loud and long and is almost constantly getting set off, sometimes multiple instances going are at once playing over each other.
