Sweet artstyle! I love how polished the game feels. Good job!

One of best and probably most polished entry i have played. I could imagine to buy this game on steam right now. Instant gem!

The game has really nice cute graphics. The controls were a bit lackluster for the keyboard (im sorry its clear that the controls were designed with an xbox controller in mind), and I couldnt progress far, because after spending a decent time figuring out the controls, 3 times in a row, I was instantly killed by having a guard on top of the doorway as I went through. Game needs a way to tell where the guards are before going through a doorway (if there is, m-my bad).

Super nice ! Nothing to say, solid entry... Really good job. Idea : Could be nice to spot where the guard is, before going in a room.

The pixel-art graphics and music are amazing! loved the mechanic and the controls feel really tight, great game.

The game is very good ! I loved it ! The controls are a little bit hard to get used to, but the small graphic asset above the character to provide informations as to what we can do helps a lot !

Good game! It's funny and invite to play. The art is wonderfull

Great job! The art and animation are awesome, and the gameplay is fun. The contextual UI prompts are a nice touch too.

This is great. Love the artwork, and it plays so smoothly. It would have helped if I could move the camera to look down or something as it was hard to time the guards movement before descending. Music was as a little repetitive but still really good.

Really cool, both graphics and gameplay are great. I also like the reference to jam theme with the thief bag!

tobiasnl 2017-12-05 14:43

Very good!, looks good, funny sounds and the gameplay was pretty solid as well!

crispypear 2017-12-05 15:17

The only problem I have with the game is the instadeaths. You should have made it possible to stay in the door and hide, so that you dont die instantly from going through the doors.

jordy-adan 2017-12-05 16:20

Awesome game, second the @crispypear suggestion, there should be a way to avoid instadeaths

This game won my heart just by being beautiful. It's got a great concept, perfect for the theme. Well done!

jeppe 2017-12-05 18:05

Very cool game, just felt frustrated not knowing if the guard is going to be right at the door or not when I switch floors, otherwise 5/5 from GFX to SFX.

glintgames 2017-12-06 02:22

First impressions, the pixel art looks awesome I love it. Second impression zip extractor very slow and then download error :(.

Oh well 5/5 for the pixel art. 0/5 for zip extractor on windows :(

2017-12-06 15:18

oh congratulation! Nice art! Can I follow it also on indiexpo? Do you have also a page there? This looks great! I looked for the games that used the #LDJAM but I don't find yours. So good luck!! I will hope to make a video about it!

I love it! We made a similar game, so i could quickly relate (and of course, skipped the initial loot to only take it when leaving). The graphics are amazing and the music is really moody, perfect for the heist. I also love the step sounds, i had a lot of trouble with them and still hav no satisfying sounds for them, so i can appreciate ;)

Hiding is also such a nice touch, especially with thos beautiful animation. My only issue is, that it's very hard to predict if going up or down a room is safe. Oh, and the death scream is sooo disturbing, a bit too heavy for the cute graphics :D

Excellent entry, i'm really impressed how round and complete you've got it.

calighula 2017-12-07 00:06

Nice art and great mechanics. I love it. The funniest game in the LD I have played so far

bobgar 2017-12-07 02:20

Love the graphics and sound. Also nice use of the theme! Our game was also about stealing.

stmatn 2017-12-07 08:06

I love the game! The graphics are great, the animations are really cute and the sounds are very fitting.

One thing, that would be nice, would be the ability to peek through doors, because it happend way to often, that I would go through the door and instantly loose, because a guard would be in front of it in that exact moment. Jumping lets you look on the floor above, but is quite inconvenient.

I like, how polished the game is.

It took me way too long to figure out, that it would be a good idea to dump the collected stuff in front of the exit. At first I thought, you would have to collect everything in one go :D Finally I collected 260kg in 155 seconds, resulting in 104 points. I hope I got everything. :)

All in all really awesome work!

robert-newman 2017-12-07 11:16

Wow what a cool looking game! animations and sounds are spot on.

I did get caught a lot just going through a door so it was a bit of a luck thing, I would say this would need addressing as it got frustrating.

great job, look forward to the post jam version

justin-toyo 2017-12-07 14:22

This was great! The pixel art was awesome and it felt really smooth using a controller instead of a keyboard! 10/10 my friend!

lukuluk 2017-12-07 22:05

Nice DA and game concept! Controls feel smooth and light, and it's really challenging to get the items. Perhaps it was a bit punishing when you enter a door and some dude is waiting for you right at the exit, and I couldn't find out how to get what the dogs keeps in his bedroom ^^ But the overall game is well done.

hugimugi7 2017-12-08 14:16

Great art and I like the graphics, sound effects feel satisfying and music is good. Gameplay felt good and idea was fantastic! Great game :thumbsup:

gyfis 2017-12-08 14:24

Nice game! Really enjoyed the art style and the polishness of the game, also the controls were smooth. The idea is also natural for the LD#40 topic, so that's great!

saintheiser 2017-12-09 12:21

Not bad! Like stealth mechanics. Not like that I can't view next room in the door. Visuals and mood are good to!

arden 2017-12-15 01:14

really fun entry!

I especially liked learning I could stomp on the guard's heads. Haha. Might be slightly more fun with a progression of levels and a dollar amount requirement?

gassasin 2017-12-26 18:46

Pretty cool game with noce art, good job!:D

ted 2017-12-26 19:31

Fantastic animation and UX. Best use of sound to indicate weight and noise I've heard the entire jam. It doesn't work properly with my 4k monitor (bits are cut off), but that's just a bug. Definitely worth a few bucks on Steam when it's ironed out and content is added on.
