Really fun game : ) Artwork is great and I love the police and the stealing mechanic from the bank. The cutscene at the start is very nice and I love that the police are on segways. I had to try 5 or so times, it was hard to tell where to go, the music changed to the happy music but I couldn't tell what I was supposed to do.

toxiccomputer 2021-10-06 16:45

@jonathan-alderson Im glad you had fun! By happy music I presume you mean the action music lol, that happens when you fire a bullet. I apologize for some parts not being the clearest, but in the end I hope you had a good experience :)

jonathan-alderson 2021-10-06 16:55

@toxiccomputer After the action music, once you've killed all the police. I wasn't sure if I'd won, I'd got all the money and killed all the police, but wasn't sure what to do next

toxiccomputer 2021-10-06 17:00

@jonathan-alderson Ohhh right, so you were supposed to go to all the way back, past the helicopter building, until you reached the end of the level, which officially ends the game. I will add a note about that onto the page, thanks for letting me know about the confusion!

Super neat game, your audio + graphics fit nicely! The game was a little bit unintuitive on where you had to go next. But nice work!

toxiccomputer 2021-10-06 17:08

@ravenmages Thank you so much! Sorry about the lack of direction, However im really glad you enjoyed it!

Hi! First off, nice game! I have actually started from the sewers and got away without alerting the police for maximum profit, which I found hilarious :D What is the difference in starting point, though? When you start from the chopper, you can follow the way in the sewers or enter gun blazing. Is there any gameplay difference? One last thing: what is the room above the caveau, under the air duct? I realized I could enter it and reach an elevator door, but I couldn't find a way to interact with it.

toxiccomputer 2021-10-06 17:33

@der-mondhase Thank you for playing :). There is no difference in the starting point, just convience for the player haha. The room above the vault is another entrance route, you can land your helicopter onto the roof, then go into the vents, then fall out into that room. From there you can break a door using a blowtorch, allowing access to the vault. The Elevator is not functional sadly, ran out of time :(

der-mondhase 2021-10-06 17:43

@toxiccomputer I didn't understand that you could start the helicopter, I think I tried to press Space or click on it without success, so I guessed that I "used it to land on the building" and that it wasn't an interactable. How can you use it?

toxiccomputer 2021-10-06 17:46

@der-mondhase You can Press E on it :D

der-mondhase 2021-10-06 17:56

@toxiccomputer *facepalm*

*Press E To Use Helicopter* it was THERE THE WHOLE TIME.

This is what I get for NOT reading the instructions. Thanks a lot, I've tried it and now I get how it should have worked :D

toxiccomputer 2021-10-06 18:11

Thank you so much for trying it again haha. Hope you had a great time and thanks for playing :D @der-mondhase

Еще бы сюда джипы, машины, танки... Проституток, игорные дома... Три острова... И получилось бы GTA!

Fun game with nice pixel art

toxiccomputer 2021-10-06 22:33

Thank you Steve! @steve7411

A nice game with multiple approaches. You even made cutscenes. In the main menu, coloring of the selected option should we swapped in my oppinion. There are also controlls that were not mentioned in the submission page or the game (like R to reload). Lastly, I would like to be able to abort using the cutting tool (if for example someone is shooting at me).

toxiccomputer 2021-10-06 22:53

Thanks for the feedback dude, and thank you for playing :) @xsangyhix

This was a pretty cool game. With a bit of polish and time you could have something that people would really enjoy playing. As of now, there are some issues, but nothing that can't be fixed. The idea of robbing the bank is pretty fun, and could definitely be expanded upon. I started in the sewer and one problem I had was that I could pretty much just run past the cops.

toxiccomputer 2021-10-07 22:33

@mateu Thanks for playing and for the feedback!

nardandas 2021-10-08 02:43

Really fun little heist game! It'd be nice to have more indication on how much ammo you have left and all.

toxiccomputer 2021-10-08 02:44

Thank you for the feedback :) @nardandas

Cool game. The music was pretty cool, but my ears feel like they're bleeding. I don't know if my default sound is too high or if the game is just too loud. It is a bit weird that going in through the sewers instantly spawns the police on screen though.

toxiccomputer 2021-10-09 17:05

Hey @chrishg12 ! Thank you for playing. The police only come when you shoot a bullet, are you sure you didnt accidently shoot? Also, I apoligize for the audio loudness.

chrishg12 2021-10-09 23:08

@toxiccomputer Oh shoot you're right, lol, I did misclick when it happened. That's actually a really cool detail. I guess you're just already supposed to be inside the building when you have to shoot so my point is a bit moot.

toxiccomputer 2021-10-10 00:32

Haha, all good dude! Still thank you for playing :) @chrishg12

Nice vibe. I like the music change while loot and clicking in the window. The policemen were quite easy to outsmart when I quickly ran to the lower left corner by helicopter. Salvador has cool walking animations and is resistant to falling, which also makes robbery easier. The amount of implemented things is impressive here. I stole quite a lot of :money_mouth::money_mouth::money_mouth::money_mouth::money_mouth:

toxiccomputer 2021-10-10 03:49

haha, thanks so much for playing dude!!!!! @rufson

I enjoy the music change whenever an event happens like you shooting your guns, and the music itself really adds t o the tension of the heist itself. Unfortunately the unstable aspect didn't quite work its magic due to it only being just wayy to much enemies and helicopters. I went into the helicopter on the gun blazing mode because I was on a silver of health when I reached the building where the helicopter is and I don't really feel like dying after getting 400k worth of money. So yea! Just a bit more polishing on the unstable side of events and it should be great! Oh and I hope there's wall jump up the vents when you're in helicopter mode because you technically can fly in from the top, go down the vent but have no way getting back up the vent to get back to the helicopter. Otherwise, great game! good job!

toxiccomputer 2021-10-11 01:35

Thank you so much for playing dude, I saw your VOD playing this game. I really loved your gameplay dude!!!! Thank you again for the feedback, if your still streaming after I get home from school, you will be sure I am there :)

Cheers! @alexthehuman2
