The simple 2D pixel art lends itself well to the main mechanic, as I progressed through the streets I definitely felt anxiety around the other characters getting closer to me. Very effective conveying of your theme. All the visuals as amazingly produced, everything is connected art wise. The simple animations of the player and the other characters are fun to see as they walk/run.
A small tutorial image for controls would have been a nice addition, explaining certain mechanics. As I was traversing the level, I sometimes felt lost, but I don't know if this was an intentional feeling you wanted to convey, because if it was then it was well executed.
All around a visually and mechanically well executed game.
