Chrome flagged your game as malicious when I tried to download it.

Idea is really nice, like Commandos! Sadly "enemies" did not do anything. You got out of time?

got the same problem as DiegoMustache when downloading: flagged as malicious by chrome

asobitech 2014-12-11 00:23

Is this game incomplete?

Getting same flagged as malicious by chrome problem.

It's a shame the managers don't do anything if you're in their line of sight, if they chased me this would have been a tense little game! Nice job though, keep at it.

took some time to actually see where I was, it's a very cool and funny idea, it's like every friday. Nice effort

Hey good dynamic engine ! Sadly nothing happens when you get caught so it's a bit easy... :/

The "flagged as malicious" is strange. You'll have to take my word on it that its clean / safe.

Yes, the game is incomplete, but represents much of the game that I wanted to finish. 48 hours is too short :( Maybe I should have done a jam entry instead.

I hope you enjoy what is there though, please be kind with your ratings!

I don't think managers really cared about me. Post compo version fixing it would make this awesome.

efux 2014-12-28 14:16

Nice work so far. I hope you continue working on it, like this it's a little bit too easy =D

Game doesn't work :( Managers don't care about me, and I got all 10 tasks done and I couldn't leave :(
However, there are some very nice technical details, such as the light casting, AI, and so on. But the game itself just isn't there. Also I don't know why the player needs to look/cast light? I just ended up spinning the mouse around the player going "wee-woo-wee-woo".
Oh, and the game doesn't work on low resolutions, as parts of the map are cut off.
The idea is there, just not well executed, however there were nice little details. So maybe work on the game, then the details next time! :)

Nice concept!

appocket 2014-12-28 19:27

Nice flag, good game.

coboltandraze 2014-12-28 20:33

Look like a good start, but as you said, the game isn't finished.

rjhelms 2014-12-28 21:15

I'd love to see a post-compo version of this - the ideas of a really good game are here, but it's not much of a challenge in the current unfinished state.

Needs more work. The controls are extremely unresponsive, with slow acceleration and deceleration. Bumping into the managers and coworkers seemed to have no negative consequences. Managers didn't seem to behave any differently when I was in their field of view... And there were no sound effects. Overall the game feels incomplete.

It would have been nice if there was some sense to the ordering of the tasks, so that you could figure out a strategy to complete them more efficiently (ie without having to walk so far from one to the next).

rojo 2014-12-29 01:54

I really like the concept! However it seems like being seen by the managers didn't have any effect, and even though I completed all 10 tasks and made it to the exit, I didn't get a victory screen. Once the time ran out the game just sort of froze up. I'm going to guess you ran out of time to complete things. Fixing those bugs and adding some ambient audio or sound effects would make this a lot better overall.

evanegibbs 2014-12-29 02:25

The engine works really well! I wasn't sure what I was supposed to be doing and I couldn't really get caught. But it's a great start!

cakencode 2014-12-29 02:33

You should've kept working on it and submitted it for the jam instead of forcing the compo version, it's obviously not finished in its current state. Hope you finish it up! :)

foodzilla 2014-12-29 02:38

Could use a bit of work to be really fun, has potential

crowbeak 2014-12-29 05:39

Such a good idea! But getting seen by managers did nothing and there didn't seem to be a win condition flag. :( This is a great start, though.
