The teleport mechanic and picking up leads requiring time to execute were good game design decisions. Great job!

Yo the music is so cool hahah! I liked the gameplay, but I do agree with the other comments. I think the movement controls need tweaking to feel better, and that the camera is too zoomed in. Also wish that the loading icon was a bit more obvious since I couldn't see it at first, and wasn't sure if it was working.

i like teh idea- but i think the movement needs a bit of changing because i didnt always feel like i had fine control of my character

I think this has good bones but a few annoying things. Primarily I feel the FoV is too small so that sometimes you don't know you're going to stumble right into a guard.

This was pretty fun! I definitely kept dying even on level 1, but I LOVED the Dubstep xD I wanted to keep playing just to listen to the music LOL. I felt like the robots could instantly see me even if they were faced the other way. Can they hear you if you're close to them or something too?

Developer

Yeah they can see you if your almost touching them, but yeah should've added a bit more leeway! Thanks for giving my game a try!

Cool game really fits the jam concept I really loved the teleport

The teleporting was really fun!

It felt quite zoomed in compared to how fast you moved and how big the levels are, I often blundered into guards. Something like Hotline Miami’s shift to move the camera towards the mouse would’ve helped there.

Funny enough Hotline Miami was a huge influence for this game! For the camera, that was my goal to make it so that it was more difficult to avoid enemies but I do see how it's more frustrating than anything else. Thanks for the feedback!

Loved the concept!  Great atmosphere, and music. I would kill for a volume slider on a title screen tho, kinda loud

Developer

Thanks! I've been playing your game too and it's pretty fun

One thing to mention is that the CRT effect seems to not fully cover the screen when in full screen, I'd suggest to play in the aspect ratio on the page.
