Really cool interpretation of the theme! And an accurate depiction of my morning commute...
I liked the concept of being able to move in all directions to let you sidestep people and such, but as others have said the mouse controls are pretty hard to manage. If you ever go back and fix it up, I would say probably just have your character point at the mouse cursor would be most intuitive.
Overall, really liked this game! The use of the theme was great, and I would love to see more of this kind of thing!
