Pretty original and well implemented!

Cute idea! I love how the wanted poster popped up.

Very cool idea and game, shame there is no sound.

Original gameplay, its good idea for LEGO)))

I love how the cops run up to distressed citizens and change the Wanted poster to show you that you need to take a new form. I understood what was happening there right away the first time it happened, and that was great.

Really, this is a pretty good game. My only real complaints are 1.) the lack of sound, 2.) the fact that zones of vision aren't very inaccurate, 3.) the fact that the the buttons actually only click when you click the left side (including the Retry button!) and 4.) I suck at this game! My high score's $800, which feels really low.

The way I keep trying shows you did something right, though. Good job!

I think if I were going to expand on this, I would add some features like making it so you can't pick the same person twice within a certain time, and you get less money from people you've picked before. Also, I'd make it so you get more money from risky picks, like picks where people or cops are nearby. As it stands, there's no real pressure on me to go for risky scores beyond my impatience. So many games, so little time...

I had the same problem with another stealth game today, actually. That and the sound thing. Sound is ridiculously important to stealth games.

Le_Saurs - Totally. It needs sound.
thegoofromspace - Thank you for all the ideas. And I completely agree with your critique. I wanted to make custom meshes that would be 100% accurate instead of eye-balled textures but I ran out of time. I'm encouraged you liked it.

Thanks guys for playing :D

I liked it very much, hope you could develop it further :)

Neat idea, totally has a potential for something bigger. Would love to see more features and levels. Also sound :) Keep up the good work!

Really neat concept. Needs sounds! Would be funny to pickpocket the cop just for the lolz. Good work though! Should have a graphics rate.

siryakko 2016-04-22 06:25

apart from the missing sound, i've liked everything in the game. The concept is really interesting and needs to be continued has a finished and full game

Cool game-idea for a nice casual game.

Hi, nice game ! hahahahah the charas are like minecraft XD. We're realizing a video with several games of the Ludum Dare #35.
Can you add your game on indiexpo.net ? (it's free)
So we can include also your game in the video ;)
p.s. write #LDJAM in the game's description

Really liked the art style

kairosxiii 2016-04-28 04:09

Nice take on the theme, solid art and concept. Those pedestrians were rich!

neat little stealth game, well done. Maybe you should could run.
