A pretty darn solid stealth-em-up 'ere. Really digging the ice cannon in this, some of the angles are a little weird, especially on the second guard in the first stage (aiming at him past the corner of the wall). If enemies stayed aggro'd after being blasted by ice again for a while that may also add to the difficulty but for a 48 hour submission this is some very solid, very fun stuff. Good work :).

LOVE a good stealth-em-up! :) Great little game here. I will come back to this and try to finish it. Got two artifacts in the second level when I stopped. LOVE the bar on the guys backpack and the level design. Great stuff!

A good stealth game, especially for one made in 24 hours. I had some problems with the camera making it hard to see things, and it needed some audio cues for things like when the gun is charged or you are spotted. I'd recommend a tool like SFXR or BFXR too make these.

This game was so cool

Well done !

Very nice game. I did not immediately see the recharge thing on my back, or understand that it was a time gun - but once I had got a grip on it, I really enjoyed it. But there did not seem to be any music or SFX?

Could have some more improvvement on the movement, but cool game, very challenging.

The character design is funny, and the game itself is pretty cool.

Well done, great game :D

stefandjagers 2015-04-20 17:42

Heist game. Just an amazing concept for this Ludum Dare! Very original! :D
I'm just blown away by this great stealth game!
Good job! :)

I like the balance of stealth and zapping guards

10fingerarmy 2015-04-20 18:19

Very well crafted game and nicely put together. I will definitely check out the source to learn a thing or two! Level design is great, time travel!! is awesome and athmosphere feels like I am really sneaking up on someone! Respect and I suggest to continue with it. You are on to something here :-)

Great game, well done! The graphics were really good :)

ym 2015-04-20 18:24

Heart warming to hear all your kind words :)

Really glad you all like it.

I've never been good with audio, when it game to tasks for day 2 I figured I'd skip it and focus on things I knew I could polish properly.

Damn, stealing is hard.
With some work this game can become Bonanza Brothers 3D!

Got to the second level and encountered a bug where when I died, I would respawn in the same spot I was. And when I beat the level, it would just send me to the same spot (my level wouldn't progress). I like the game and the stealth mechanics were nice and required you to strategize your plans and look at their patterns. Very good environment as well.

The time gun is pretty fun to use. I like that it has a long cool down forcing you to plan how you are going to use it. I would prefer a higher camera angle but other wise very enjoyable. Nice Work!

ilseroth 2015-04-21 12:52

The camera is a little awkward but it is quite fun.

Not sure if it is a glitch, or intended but several guards slide aroound without facing the direction they are headed; but then the moon walking may be intentional.

I love the hats.

tuism 2015-04-21 13:18

The "time control" weapon is interesting, but right now it's basically a "back home" button - which means you entirely rely on knowing where their single start position is. Which doesn't make thematic sense.

Otherwise, it's tightly designed with some really good tight bits.

Oh, and the E - why do you even need a button to pick up? It doesn't really make sense. Touching should do it. Monaco has taught us that you don't even need buttons at all most of the time :)

Great camera work, too!

Challenging but fun game. I included it in part 3 of my Ludum Dare 32 compilation video series, if you would like to take a look :) https://youtu.be/Q8RvVjW24Io

Very nicely put-together game! I love the style and the difficulty level was spot on. I hope you keep working on this.

ultraval 2015-04-23 15:01

I miss a bit of sound or effects. The gameplay is awesome!!

hadesfury 2015-04-23 15:33

Great game ! Especially for the short time it took to make. The time gun works really well and makes for some excellent gameplay. I liked that it posed more of a challenge than what I initially expected. Especially level 2.
All it needs now is a little more work on the mood and graphics. And sounds. And MORE LEVELS ;)

babajaga 2015-04-23 17:21

Looks pretty polished

rudra 2015-04-24 16:59

Awesome stealth game !! Pretty challenging and very good graphics and idea ! Congrats !!

surpent 2015-04-25 04:02

Very interesting game! I'm so nervous to steal a jewel!
Operation is difficult, I want you to easier.

roguenoodle 2015-04-25 11:16

Time gun is such a good idea, and works perfectly within a stealth game. Awesome work on this - hope you take it further post jam!

androniq 2015-04-25 17:12

Great idea.
I couldn't get the controls to work properly, he only seemed to switch between two diagonal directions.
It's a really cool and different approach to stealth though.

norwalnate13 2015-04-26 21:37

The camera angle is a little wonky. The movement isn't well adapted to keyboard inputs. Also, the camera damping made me slightly nauseous. Perhaps a top-down angle aligned with the cardinal directions would be best. that way no guards would sneak up on me unfairly. Otherwise, neat game.

franklins-ghost 2015-04-29 12:26

A well done stealth game, impressed you made this in such a short time. The time gun is a clever use of the theme. Enjoyed figuring out the different layouts just had issues with the camera at times.

jk5000 2015-05-03 12:34

A good idea and nice graphics. A little hard to control. Overall a fine game.

timm638 2015-05-04 13:38

I love the time.

frederickk 2015-05-05 03:59

Very cool! I liked it! :)
