This is very creative and charming, and while I do wish there was more to it (I'm assuming there aren't any more levels after level 3?) what we got here is still pretty fun. The art and atmosphere are so cozy, but at the same time, you're a thief running from the law, ahaha (this reminds me a bit of the pig town in Don't Starve: Hamlet if you've ever seen or played that).
I knew something wasn't quite what it seemed when the officers seemed to be always magically able to find and catch me . . . then I realized I had assisted with my own demise 😂! You actually used my pathfinding and made it work (without breaking the game) somehow; that alone is quite the accomplishment! And yes, hopefully my updated pathfinding will help with eliminating the lag.
Anyways, for as rushed as this was, it sure is fun! Fantastic work!
