This is great. Plays like Hotline Miami, looks like a hybrid between NES and Atari. (both good things)
The characters are very well animated, and the level looks adorable.
The feedback when you grab candy (the sound effect and the "!" ) feels very good
I really liked how hard this was, but a nasty side effect to that is the music loop started to get a little annoying after a while.
I think my favorite part of your game was how you took the first level and iterated on it again with police officers. This made sure I understood the mechanics and went a step further. Brilliant design.
My only gripe with the music I think is the choice of instruments used. But as a digital musician, I understand that is easier said than fixed.
Great game!
