I like this prototype but it doesn't really feel like a stealth game at all considering enemies can look at you and not do anything besides move, the music was nice but the key pick up noise was too loud for it's own good, the squash and stretch the player does is nice but I would have appreciated some actual animation for the sprites, and a proper background, the controls are good as well, the player feels smooth to handle and the levels are nice but only having 3 one screen wide levels isn't the greatest, I feel like you could have doubled that level count somewhat easily due to only having 2 mechanics.

Thanks for coming by our game. Nothing like a jam to test out a couple ideas, eh?

I see that you're a young game dev, and it's always great to go into stuff young. There are some things that I would've added/changed to the main mechanic:

1. Indicate what dot makes which door open.

2. Add some audio. Make it ALIVE. Trust me, even just prototyping it with audio is a thousand times better. 

3. Add some animation to it. Makes it less static.

4. And lastly, always try to iterate on the game concept. Try to think outside the box.

Besides that, great work creating a game in under 3 days!

It’s a rather good idea but I feel like you could add more to it. Here’s my list:

  1. the timer should start when any key is pressed. 2.the timer should be more visible
  2. get a new font
  3. add animations and music.
  4. More mechanics

But all in all I still think this is a rather good game, Good Job!

Hey congrats! It's a very cool idea and a nice a prototype that can be turned into a great game! My only feedback is that I'd enjoy a more precise movement a little bit better but of course it depends on where are you planning to take this idea to and what kind of aesthetics you are aiming for for the player. Keep it up!

Cool Idea & Game!

Developer

Thanks

It was submitted on time and it works. That's actually more of an achievement than it sounds like. Time management is a difficult beast, for sure. I would recommend in future player controllers that you don't do inertia/acceleration based because it's what people refer to as "floaty" rather than responsive. When I release the key, the player should stop moving. It's an opinion, totally subjective, but one that I think a majority of players agree upon. :)

Good concept! A rogue tipe game with stealth mecanics? Count me in!

Submitted

fun game . Adding some particle can make them game better

This has potential, but I'm a bit confused by the timer. Why is it there lol

Developer

It's there as a way to stick to the theme *ish*

You need to do something with volume. It just scares me. Anyway this game has potential, but now it's kinda raw

Developer

Thanks for your feed back this was going to be more polished but I have really bad time management and because of that I couldnt add most of what I hoped

Submitted

This game has a lot of potential. I think you should add more enemies with different behaviors. Would make it a bit more challenging. Overall, nice one.

Developer

Thanks for the feedback this is just a prototype for a game idea i had. I do wish to add more enemies and features in the future.
