Yoo that was so fun and the idea is well executed!
Also the ending fell a bit rush but ngl that made it really funny so I don't regret at all acting like the worst capitalism guy I could ever been.

everything about this game works so well! it's fairly simple but fun and satisfying, and deep enough for the time it takes to complete. i love the writing and dialogue options. from the artstyle to the gameplay, this was a very cleverly designed game for the scope and theme of this game jam. wonderful work.

edit: i just noticed you get slower the more gold you're carrying, i love that detail!

second edit: AND I HAVE CAPE NOW???

Developer

Thank you! Im really glad you enjoyed the game! Especially because it was our first jam :D. If you liked the cape you should see who you turned into at the end of the game ;)

Great job! I absolutely love the art style here it is so charming and looks hand drawn. The itch page is also really good and fits the style of the game very well, I love when itch pages are themed to the game, I think it adds so much and leaves a great first impression. GG!

Developer

Thank you! We appreciate your feedback!

Pretty fun and simple game! The dialogue was cool. I feel like there could be some extra mechanics, but it's very well polished for having been made in so little time! Good job!

Developer

We are so glad you like it!!🫶🏻

I really like the narrative of the game and the artwork also suit perfectly! Awesome work!

Developer(+1)

Thank you for your feedback!

You made such a charming game! I really enjoyed it :) Especially the hand drawing style of it and the characters. I think it would be even more fun to have more interactions with them!

I tried to take risks at first but after a couple of failures it seemed better to play it safe and go out just for a couple of coins insted af sprinting to the centre of the village :)

I also wonder if the scaffold plays some role in the game or is just...a decoration? :D

It is also very cool how you implemented the tutorial into the game. Neatly done!

Developer

Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it! Maybe in the future we can add more interactions, note taken. 

The scaffold its just some decoration to give some ambientation hahah, we also had a fountain and then changed it to this :)

Appreciate your feedback!

I love the artsyle! Reminds me of those hidden object puzzles I would do as kid.

Developer

Thanks for playing! Im glad you had fun :)

Art style is really unique in its simplicity and I like it. Guards can take your money while you're stealing, but I think it's just a slight overlook. Overall fun game 💰

Developer

Thanks for your feedback! Guards aren't supposed to take your money while stealing (bug). Later when the jam ends we will give it some updates to fix it. I appreciate it :)

Submitted(+1)

Cool artstyle, nice detail with changing the player looks when he gets more money. I also like that the more money in your pockets slows you down

Developer

Thank you! I'm glad you like this feature :). Don't forget to rate us!

I like so much the hand painting style of your game ! Made me feel like i was playing a DnD game in a way, this is so cool !!

Developer

I'm glad you enjoyed it! We have a really good artist on our team :D

Developer

Ohhh thank you so much for the comment!!❤️

I like the little progression details, like how the gold pile gets bigger and bigger! Nice game!

Developer(+1)
