Art and idea are amazing but gameplay is to hard in my opinion.I  think if it were a little easier this game would be perfect!

Most interesting idea so far. We once made a game with 2 changeale characters too. ^^  I couldnt really get to the stealing part, because i always got caught, but really impressive for 3 days. Especially the pixel art is amazing. Can really feel donny sweating on the way to stealing.

Developer

Thank you for you feedback, it really means a lot for us! Our game went a little too hard for most players, as we didn't have time to polish enough nor test the game to balance the difficult. Our artists appreciate your compliments <3

I will be 100% honest with you guys : I don't think your game cover and game page give the credit your game deserve.

If I hadn't seen Potipot comment's, I probably would have never paid attention to it . And I know no one should judge a book by its cover, but thats what human brain and its 250 cognitive bias do.

You should really pump up that cover art up, black outlines on a dark background ? 3 fonts with 3 colors ? Making gorgeous chara design to hide them in the dark ? I really get what you tried to achieve here, but damn I didn't wanted to click on this thing even with a 5 miles pole.

And foremost : you have made an absolute MADLAD work of pixel art and animation (LucasArt level), but why I must launch the game to see that ? Put screenshots, screenshots everywhere, tattoo them on your dog if you want to, but players NEED screenshots, If some people doesn't care about your cover, and your game page, nobody will ever experience what I think is a super cool and original experience.

6/5 but I must take 1 points away for this non sexy branding, so 5/5.

Developer

Man, thanks for this post, when you put it like that the game indeed doesn't look sexy at all, for now we put some screenshots and also some concept art in the page, and we'll have a look on what we can do with the cover for now, really appreciate all the feedback.

I'm sorry if I sound a bit harsh, I doesn't wanted to criticize your art skill in any way, and taste is a very subjective thing.

I see what you done on the page, I'm almost 100% sure that's will benefit you. And you guys do whatever you want after all. It just drove me crazy to see a game like that on a blank page...

Edit : god damn WHO made concept art of that quality level for a jam !?

Developer

Don't worry, we truly appreciate your feedback :D

With that, we can make our game better and more appealing to people. Thanks for spending your time helping us and for playing our game! (our artists don't sleep hashahshhas)

The game idea is genius!!! The art is amazing but it's just so hard to understand what to do  ,even with the cool comic tutorial, that looked so confusing that I didn't read it at first lol. I couldn't do much on the stealing side, I don't know what to do when the guy is looking behind his back I just to try to I buy time with the talking part but it doesn't work.

Developer

Thank you! If the guy look behind his back all you need to do is to hide, either under the table or behind the pillars. Again, thank you for playing our game and by your commentaries on our game art.
