How does your game fit the theme?
The whole game is a countdown inside a countdown! You're racing to freedom before the cops catch you - and every single gate you crack is its own shrinking countdown, where waiting longer pays more but risks losing the very time you're trying to save

SUCH A FUN GAME!!! I literally have no critiques (besides what I said on stream lol) SO cool to go fast with the clock and just kept on wanting to steal as much money as possible!!!
Nice take on the team, unfortunetly I was really bad on this game :'( even after playing 7 seven times I didn't manage to beat it.
I really liked how well put together this game was. All of the elements of the game were coherent and fit together under the same theme. The controls were super simple and easy to understand. The sounds and animations gave a lot of enjoyment for each hit. I think a very small introductory level would’ve helped to explain that I don’t have to click as soon as I go into the red zone. Once that clicked, the game went to a new level of fun, but first two runs I didn’t get I could do that, so I was clicking as soon as possible. Overall, an amazing game. Thank you!
Heya thanks for the details feedback <33
Onboarding is something we thought a lot about and definitely fell short in a few aspects. Having watched people play, we noticed lots of people had the same instinct (it’s great you called this out)! Hope you enjoyed!
Absolutely amazing game, really nice simple to understand mechanics and very good artwork :D
fun game
Love the art and the gameplay! Just super chill and satisfiying.
great job, really well done. But what were the characters on the right side for?
Glad you enjoyed our game!
The characters (and the rooms) on the right are there for few reasons: to show [1] which level you are currently on, [2] how far you are to the end of the game, [3] how far you are to boss room(s), [4] how many lives you have left (by showing how close is the cop (we do have hearts ui for clearer information on this)).
We wanted to have a visual and narrative way to show these information, instead of just a progress bar or anything equivalent, to get that immersion into the fantasy!<3
Another 10/10 GMTK Game, I REALLY LIKED this one!
I like that it rewards risky plays, very fun!
The presentation is also great! :)
Really glad you enjoyed the game!! And congrats on beating the game - top 5 that’s awesome<3
A safe inside of a safe inside of a safe
Cool game! its not a countdown its count up but its still amazing
The original intention was you were playing the game on a clock, counting down.
We struggled with the narrative, so the clock quickly became a dial, and then we realised how fun it was when the dial hand changes direction each interaction. We definitely lost some countdown elements with these decisions, but it’s still a countdown to leave it as close to the wire before grabbing a target for maximum $$$!
it is a very fun game actually, I came from yesterday's livestream
A fun game with a cute, simple style.
I failed a bunch of times because I got too greedy hahah.
Best compliment I can give is that I would play this game outside of a jam, it's so much fun!!
Yeah this game rules. Couldn't figure out how to use my active item though!
Very enjoyable! Should definitely add additional special events with the selectable areas themselves and I think there is an amazing game going with this, loved!!!!!!!!!!
Wow, simple and fun. This can definately be a mobile game that I would like to play as a passtime
Great ratio of gambling to skill, lots of fun, I take too many risks and die every time TTTwTTT
Great game. Although I wish it also rewarded speedines instead of accuracy. Then combos could go crazy fast
Wow this is incredible. I don’t have much to say other than this is an incredibly fun use of the theme. Great work here.
really fun. had to lock in for this one. great work! :)
Perfect game both me and my sister played it 10/10
