Oof! Really charming game! :D

Submitted

This game is absolutely hilarious. So many original quirks, the hearing aid for muting the game, the knee meter.. So good. Excellent entry with a great amount of humour!

Well done :)

Submitted

I LOVE the "Oof" XD It's so funny. Really great audio in this game. 

Submitted

I really adore this game, it’s packed with personality. That hearing aid joke was absolutely hilarious.

Submitted

I like the overall idea and feel. The army of gran-cops at the end was fun to try and avoid and I like the hearing-aid thing. The variation on rock-paper-scissor is fun at the start but I was happy to stop there when I finished the game. Overall a nice moment where you can't go too fast (ouch)

I love this game, it has so much charm. The hearing aid joke was so good.

However I think there are some issues, like the knees hurting mechanic doesn't really add much, it just adds downtime. Perhaps make the player slower instead? And add a granny walk that you can use when your knees don't hurt? 

Oh and unless I'm missing something I have no way of knowing if the granny will use pull, push or hold, so it just becomes a dice roll at that point and doesn't feel very "gamey".

Funny title, and I liked the rock-paper-scissors backbone to the game. I have to say some variety in the grannies' voices would have been welcome as they got mildly irritating near the end of the time limit. Also, the stamina limit bar fills up a little too fast for how hard it can be to catch the NPCs.

To end on a positive note, the doodly artstyle was hilarious and pleasing, and the game sound being represented by hearing aid is the kind of detail that reveals a resourceful dev :)

Loved the concept! The art and animations were charming. The arthritis mechanic was a little punishing, but other than that, I really enjoyed this one.

Great work!

Submitted

Fun idea for a game, and I think the artstyle is fantastic, the animations feel really alive. After a while I understood the purse tugging is probably like rock paper scissors? I wish there'd been more control over that though as it felt like I really had nothing to contribute to whether I would or wouldn't succeed.

Generally I think the game feels a little punishing - my knees got hurt once and there seemed really no recovering from that, haha! with people also chasing me it made the game quite difficult, and I'm not sure that it's intended to be that from the getgo.

Playing tug of war to steal a purse from a police granny wasn't on my bingo card. Fun little game, a great example of a simple but well-polished experience. When I saw the title on Discord, I already knew I wanted to try it, and the page description just reinforced it. I wasn't doing very good, but that's probably my tough luck. I especially liked the art style and the knees hurting sound effect.

Submitted

Really charming, stealing purses from grannies is one of my favorite activities.

The knees hurting mechanic was funny! But a bit easy to get around if you press the button repeatedly instead of holding it. Still, very fun!

I had a great time escaping the police! Congrats on the game!

Nice visuals and funny setting. Are there indications on what the other granny does in a purse struggle? I'd prefer if it's not random. The debuff mechanic was an interesting and fun mechanic.

Developer

It's random :')

was planning on adding personalities and names to each granny that hints which move they're likely to use

but I didn't have much time on the weekend

anyway, thanks for playing! :)
