How does the game fit the theme?
Every time you open a jail cell in the game, you won't know if they will be friendly or harmful.
What code and assets did you not make from scratch during the jam (if any)?
I got sound effects from Jsfxr

Sweet game, really like the "What's in the box" feeling it gives! I personally prefer different hand binding for jump (rather than all on WASD), but I guess that's a matter of opinion. Seems that others like the all-WASD-control.
Thank you! I plan to add more control options after the Jam is over.
Pretty interesting take on the premise! I like the aspect of not trusting each of the jail cell because there's a potential police behind it. Though at the first playthrough, I feel like the possibility of it is quite random? I would've loved if there was some sort of clue or something subtle to kinda tell the player that its a friendly or harmful jail cell. The movement's quite nice though I find the wall hold a bit sticky (which might be intentional xD). I love the overall polish of the game with its simple but effective artstyle and also the sound effects. I love how the music sounds as well with the occasional sirenes in the back. I also like that you included hard mode which is an awesome addition for a game jam game! Overall, this was an interesting and fun game especially for a solo game! Great work!!
Thank you! You are right about the randomness, everytime the game starts each cell chooses a random number which leads to either prisoner or cop. Then the higher your wanted level the more choices the cells will have, leading to cop variants. Clues were something I could have added (and probably should have added) but oh well!
Fun game! Hard mode is very difficult lol
Thank you! Yeah, hard mode is pretty hard.
Nice concept and gameplay x)
Thank you!
I really loved the game, honestly. It's definitely going on my list of favorite games from the jam
Thank you!!!
Great game please rate my game
This game was really fun! I felt really satisfied when I finally beat it.
Thank you! Good job on beating it!
The movement feels very good! I've even managed to find tech that lets you walljump straight up! My only gripe is that enemies chase you through walls, it feels a bit bs sometimes
Thanks! Sorry, the enemies do be cheating a little bit.
the idea is pretty fire! i love how they levitate towards the player lol. it's a bit difficult though. i mean, i know this gambling with prisoners and police officers fits the theme, but sometimes these officers are a bit too overwhelming
Yeah, depending on your luck the game can be really hard. Whoops!
I liked the idea of not being able to trust who is besides the bars in the prison setting but I don't get why it would be cops? maybe just prisoners who do not cooperate with your prison break would make sense? I liked the music also and sirens creeping in from time to time
Thank you for your feedback. (Super secret note: The officers accidently locked themselves in the cells)
i loved this game! the movement felt really nice and the sound effects made it really suspenseful
Thank you!
