Its a basic stealth game done well. You seem to have scoped the project perfectly for the showcase, delivering a highly polished browser game. The art looks good, the game play is nice and the music is matching. I feel like I'm missing an interesting mechanic. The game play is functional but pretty plain, it works for me but I'm missing something to keep me hooked for more than 5 minutes.  

This is probably the most polished game here! Very well done. Everything fits so well and the design of the levels is perfect. It felt fair, and challenging at the same time. Well done guys :) Make more! I could have played longer.

An absolute treat. There's some great things at play here, and the simplicity of the gameplay itself really allows the visual and aural features to shine. 

What I think really sticks with me is how I feel like you nailed the pacing. I feel like you landed in a really good spot regarding how and when the game ramps up in difficulty and you start ushering the player into thinking in new dimensions. From simply staying out of cones, to going around tables and behind objects to intentionally putting yourself at risk to kite enemies away from their patrol - it just feels right. 

Initially it took me a moment to understand what was going on with the cones visually appearing and moving around my character, but once I understood it was my own line of sight everything fell into it's place. Maybe I just missed this feature in an explanation somewhere, but consider making this feature even clearer, possibly in the first room you start in?

Furthermore, i'm so glad that you decided to not have a system in which the player would eventually run out of lives and be met with a game over. The fact that I could just keep playing and try again immediately when I got caught was a huge reason that I stuck with it for as long as I did and that I was always engaged and having fun. While it might feel tempting to go hardcore and really punish players In a game like this you went the other way - very smart move!

The ability to hide in the barrel I didn't really understand. I feel like I got caught even though I got in it if I was already in an enemies sights, but if I used it prematurely I really just lost my bearings due to not seeing what happened around me, so I never felt like I had a reason to opt for it over just playing smart with my movement. While the idea of an ability besides movement is cool, maybe re-iterate on what you want to accomplish with this?

A-grade pixel art. Audio and music is f*cking smashing, and that's coming from a technical sound designer. Just wish tunes would change as I got to new roomes, but that's just me being greedy.

Congratulations to a fantastic achievement!

I like the general narrative of how and why you get cought, also sometimes the characters were dragging me towards the oven that looked amazing, I wish you would make it a feature(or in case of the living room drag towards the door). I also like the shortcuts and how they are somewhat hard to find and the idea of "hide out". Tables as hide out was fun too. Table decorations though, maybe they are not needed if I'm on the menu? However they looked nice.

Sound effects were nice and very fitting. Music however after a while got too repetitive. Also I expected different areas to sound different so I was disappointing when nothing changed when I entered living room area.

Also I don't know if this happened only to me but after I reached the first "living room" level with stairs my ability to hide from enemies was not working anymore. I would simply hold space bar and the character would play the hiding animation but after less than a second character jumped back up again. It didn't break the game for me but definitely made it harder. Maybe it was intend to be that way but in that case there was no clear indication in any form for why that happened. Neither could I see any cool-down anywhere.

Overall I really enjoyed this pixel art game with its familiar mechanics and a novel to me story. Thank you!

I thought the music was quite irritating and wanted to die to make it stop. Died several times but still couldn't get out. But if that was the point-Good job!

Brings us back to the old Game Boy games! The pixel art is overall very consistent. From the looks of things you didn't use a colour palette with too many colours, as well as small sprites, which both added a lot to the retro vibe. The sound effects and music were simple, but that only enhanced the experience due to its consistency with the art style. You're rewarded for exploring since some paths are a lot easier than others, though the shortcuts made the game shorter than it could've been. The Metal Gear-style barrel does its job well too once you've learnt the timing of the enemies.  Would've loved even more levels, great job!

Charming pixel-art graphic and animations. I like that the levels has a balanced progression of difficulty and introduction of new enemies. The shortcuts were a nice way to get past, but sometimes it felt like too much of a shortcut, and that you could force the player to actually make it through. The hiding in barrel got a while to get for me, but was a nice mehcanic when learning it. Overall a charming pixel-art game that delivers. Good job! 

Is there an official plushie of the playable character yet?

The music was fine to start with but after 5 minutes of it the repetitiveness got to me. The gameplay had a bit more variety but was starting to become repetitive too by the end. That said, the level design held up well and was nicely graduated for increasing difficulty.

Not knowing where I was supposed to be going was frustrating. I just tried to get as far as I could without being seen, which seemed effective but I had no idea how far I was from the end of either the level or the game.

The game was nice, however there were some bugs such as owls not working after a few deaths and bookshelves and furnaces working as hiding spots when running into them.

A rather good stealth game but you have no idea where you are going on each level so it becomes trial and error after a few levels. I am not sure the upbeat music fits the rather grim setting. That said, the music was good on its own.

This game got a duck in a barrel 10/10. 

Love that old school retro feeling: simple but good graphic, solid controls, nice tune. I did enjoy this. 

You can't not enjoy a game with a duck in a barrel as main character. That being said - Amazing Level Design, really smooth progression of difficulty. Everything from sound, art, presentation and mechanics fits together and delivers a super intriguing and enjoyable stealth game. Great work! 

Awesome cute kind of retro feel, also very consistent in the delivery. The levels have a great progression in difficulty and especially the last few levels really pose a fun challenge. 

Oh yeah - and I love the duck in the barrel, what a main character. Would absolutely buy a soft toy version of it. 

Having a WebGL build is the ultimate hack to not only get a nice big red button linking to your nice looking itch-page and away from this one. It also means I can "walk up to a game" and play it immediately! Good Job! Super fun game as well!
