this is a pretty unique take on the theme that although simple is very well executed. The music and sound effects all add to the atmosphere while the graphics are easy and simple to understand. I do believe it is a little too simple at the moment and adding some more mechanics will be an interesting thing to see.

a good start to a interesting concept! love to see more levels!

This is a cool concept! Expand it with more levels, mechanics, and more, and you've got a pretty good game! The sound effects add a lot to the game.

Fun idea! Have to say though: To be a nightguard, you apparently need to be very quick on your feet.😂 Not reaching the waypoints fast enough is probably the most likely reason for losing. Was a bit irritated that the game doesn't immediately end once you reach all waypoints, however.

Glad you managed to find time to add sound effects – that adds a ton of atmosphere!

Yeah, the timing is not ideal. The game ends when the thief exits the map (I mean he needs to escape unseen!). I was planning to add some feature that you would need to linger for a while at a waypoint to collect them to balance out the time the thief took to escape and the time you need to get the waypoints better but didn't get to it.

The guard is in cahoots with the thief, I knew it!
Fun game and very polished execution, good job!

I liked going through it fast! Some kind of timer to tell you how quickly you've collected all the checkpoints would have been very nice

Interesting concept. Its PacMan but youre ghost. Plenty of room to expand the idea. Its a good start

Cool game! Maybe adding more guards to control or more levels could be fun.

I'd say this is a pretty interesting game. I think maybe adding some more mechanics might make it better, but its still pretty cool. No glitches that I can see.
