This game is simple to understand and fun to play.

A very cool idea.

I feel like I'm a horrible person I just could not leave the civilians alone :)

I enjoyed playing it, have nothing bad to say about it really.

This is very well made mate! Only thing I could suggest is adding sound effects to the game, it could help with timing for the later rounds when they're going real quick.

Cool Well executed however civilions+robbers move a tad too quickly from the get go and they come in a set pattern so having some element of randomness could have worked well

Really unique idea i think it plays really well. Difficulty increasing is also good as it stops the game play from going stale. I would like a bit of music or sound effects but that's just a personal preference because its oh so quiet here...

Anyway great job and a really fun game, i will for sure be trying to beat my high score!

I really liked this game, super innovative as well! You should be very proud of youself.

I don't think I have any critique for this game!

A very solid game, quite fun. Though the game initially feels like it will be quite slow the rate of which it speeds up keeps the game interesting and means you cannot lose focus on it. I did notice that there appears to be a tell of when a criminal is coming since there is a lightly longer delay before they appear compared to when innocents appear. Still, overall a very fun game. 

Also, managed to get to 14 on my best run.

Actually rather challenging, I don't agree with the other comment here which is slightly strange, it could be your game runs at a speed depending on framerate so i'm getting a game at twice the speed. it does only use one input and it's actually a really pretty game.

Really enjoyed it, couldn't get past 9 :D

Responsive gameplay that functions well. A bit slow, and the sprites are very large which doesn't allow for much movement before you have to click. Expanding the play area would also allow you to speed up the game as it goes on, and maybe even let multiple civilians/robbers be on screen at once, where you have to click on the robbers' sprites.

Hello Samuel (or Sam if you prefer), thank you for your feedback, it's very much appreciated!

The people move by a set amount each frame, so on devices with lower frame rates, it may be that they will move slower for you. I'll see what I can do to remedy this issue, thanks for bringing it to my attention.

The game has been designed to speed up as it goes on. You can click anywhere on the screen to catch the robbers, I forgot to mention that. You can also click any time the robbers are actually on screen to catch them.

Finally, while having to choose which people to click would be a good idea, it would technically violate the "one-button" rule. It's a nice idea, though!
