I love when so simple concepts work so well! It's quite straightforward and at some point can become boring, but you have a plenty of possibilities to evolve this project with even small touches. Great work!

I really like the chess-like gameplay! Especially the style of the tutorial to understand the movement of the cop.

Great job! I liked this

I love puzzle games, and this was a fun concept! I think the level design can use a bit more iteration, as they were mostly straightforward solutions. I appreciated the early levels easing you into how the cop worked without allowing him to catch you. I also think completion time might not be the best way to score this game, maybe consider ranking by number of moves and number of failure attempts?

I did consider doing it by number of moves, but I realized the lowest score would have a lowest possible amount for each level, which wouldn't make for very good competition.

Very fun, I liked the particle effects and was quite intrigued how the path finding for the police officer works. The game is quite well put together, very nice!

Quite fun! Love seeing these kinds of puzzle games! And quite interesting levels as well

Pretty good and really fun. I noticed that pressing two arrow keys at the same time will not only add extra time, but the cop also moves twice while Steve only moves one square. Everything else was great and it was fun competing against the clock

It's a lot harder to speedrun this game than it looks, good work!

an interesting concept, but I don't know if when it gets close, it's for him to walk two spaces of movement

  • Excellent game,  I've beaten it twice now
  • Simple, easy to learn, and instantly fun
  • Its easy to imagine what it'd take to ship this game, I would buy it for $4.99 on the Play Store in a heart beat.

Feedback

  • The cops movement is erratic at times (sometimes it moves diagonally) and it catches me off guard. I think its good the cop moves faster, but making it more predictable would be nice.
