This reminds me a lot of observation duty!

Think some gameplay elements are missing, but I think the idea would have been sound for the game jam! Think the camera needs to be brought in closer to the streets so we can effectively monitor for strangers? Or she light on them in some manner to help bring attention to them.

Cool idea, I think it has potential but for now it lacks sounds and some kind of objective.  The style is cool

Not quite sure what I'm supposed to be doing honestly, seems like an interesting concept but picking up "strangers" seemed to be random chance rather than actually spotting anything. Not sure if I'm missing something here? We'll put it down to user error :D the visuals overall are pretty good, enjoyed the perspective.

Very hard to spot the strange elements, even on fullscreen. Would have loved to see some more interesting effects for strangeness too! I liked the camera perspective though!

Interesting, lacked audio though.
