Great game! Might be neat to see some variations on the guards and maybe a way to randomize or add options to the security guards pathing. It was really easy to predict where they were headed and made the game a bit simple. That does not detract any amount of fun I had though, I almost beat it! I got to the last moment before I go to the 1st floor and made a bad call on the direction the guard was gonna rotate! I would love to play it and finish next time! Thanks!

Pretty cool for a compo ! Cool abstract art style, and loved the room names. A lil bit too easy i think, while i didn't had to think a lot or make risky move to go anywhere.

I like such simple games like this, it's easy, but fun to play, and the most pleased moment is that you can easily develop it further in the future.

This is really fun. I love it's simplicity. It would be cool to add a couple of other enemy types that move faster or have different behavior patterns. I also really like the retro 80's vibe. The scan lines is a really nice touch. Music is awesome as well.

Hey! I am in love with graphics. Good game for this theme i think! I like it. Simple but lovely. :)

I liked the simple but yet nice graphic. Also nice work with the raycasting (I guess it was?). Too often in games enimies are reacting trough walls but not in this one :)

Very enjoyable experience and one quality that many ld games I played lacked - replayability. I don't see myself playing this for an hour straight, but I'd pick it up every few days to chill. If this were to become a full game some player progression or just swag to buy with money you stole (skins, spy gadgets, idk :P). Good job!

I love the game play, totally my kind of game. A bit tired by this kind of graphic universe to be honest, but it makes really sens in this gameplay, everything in clear and easy to understand.

I love the art and music on this and the gameplay is great. Great game

That's such an awesome game! Great job on getting that CRT screen look and the 80's aesthetic just right.

Simple but not too shabby! I normally am not a fan of filter effects personally but I think it actually works very well with what you have here, so props on that aesthetic decision. You had a nice mood and the music track added to the atmosphere well.

For the gameplay, it did tend to feel quite tedious after a while, and I think the setup heavily penalizes you if you lose all of your lives. I think if you were to run with this idea, I think instead of having one very large level with a ton of rooms and money scattered about everywhere, I would have liked to see individual levels, each with varying layouts of guards that present different types of challenges. What you have is perfectly acceptable for a jam game though!

I absolutely love the mood and colour scheme used in this game. It feels almost Hotline Miami esque. Simple concept but executed very well.

Pretty good, and great music/sound: Even though it's very minimal visually, it looks pleasing.

This is a fantastic game. The artwork is straightforward, which adds to its appeal. The plot is interesting, and I enjoyed it because most people nowadays are in financial difficulty, and some even resort to theft. Even I have had such thoughts, but it's good that I haven't succumbed to them and instead decided to just hunt for discounts on various things on sites like https://www.dontpayfull.com . After playing this game, I concluded that stealing is a terrible thing to do, and that it can only be done in these games. By the way, I'd like to point out that the levels are a little simple, so I strongly advise adding some complexity. I'm excited to see how this game evolves. Good luck with your endeavors.
