Really nice game with music and theme that fits very well. However, you should remove the quit button because the game freezes when it's clicked, because there is no actual application to quit.

I had a lot of fun playing this! I've seen a few games in this jam with a similar concept, but they tend to be very chaotic. I found that you struck a good balance here with just enough mild chaos with the number of characters and their muttering and the room size (not being able to see it all at once, forcing you to keep moving) to make things challenging, but not frustrating. I agree with some of the other comments that there could be more obvious feedback when you get something right or wrong, either a subtle visual or audio cue, but the lack of that didn't really bother me. Great job with what you were able to accomplish in the 7 days!

This game was a bit confusing to get the hang of. I like that the customers ramble about different things in the store and even bother you while your in the middle of trying to find the thieves. Nice work!

Fun game - I especially loved the background music! Thank you for putting the instructions in the description, & for making it!❤️

That's a very fun concept, loved the characters! x)

For some feedback, I felt it lacking a bit of visual feedback, at first I wasn't sure if I'm doing it right. Like, "so did I catch them? Did they return the goods?" Once I saw the first cross appear, it became much more clear though.

Fun game, I really like the character design but also the overall art style and UI, plus the background on the game page is also really cool and the music is also great. I was a bit bothered by the freeze when catching a thief. In normal mode it didn't bother me at all, but in hard mode, that zoom in was a significant obstacle and felt a bit unnecessary. When there are so many thieves, catching them meant I was pretty much stopping every second while half of them escaped, making it feel like the challenge was more about fighting the game than the thieves. But other than that, I really enjoyed playing in normal mode and Carl mode, I feel like the balance is just right there (perfect amount of Carl). Also, at the beginning near where the character spawns, there's a computer, were there plans to add a camera system? It zoomed in when I stood near it, but I don't think I could interact with anything and I think it would be really cool. Overall, the whole project looks really solid, the game is polished and it's very enjoyable to play and has a lovely vibe. Great take on the theme. Good job! ♥

Was just about to grab a thief when goddamn Carl got in the way:(

Pretty good game! but some how i got stuck after i pressed E on a shifty costumer?

before even playing the game, the “I’m batman” in the banner image got me XD

The art is really nice! I also liked the music, it was a great experience!

I recently discovered my love for shop games, so this was right up my alley! ;-)

The visuals have a really nice retro vibe, and there is definitely genuine potential in this concept. That said, a few things left me a bit confused. Mainly why the screen aggressively zooms in on me when near the PC, and how on earth to mute the soundtrack :D

A really promising foundation with a fun premise!

to me everyone seemed shifty but the theme asked for it. So well done on that part!

I think the customers locking you down when talking with no way out but to wait is too harsh. Makes its too easy to miss someone stealing. But nice job. 

I Won! Great game, honestly. I feel like the dialogue shouldn't lock you in place because then by catching one guy you miss out on others. other than that the game is amazing, well done!
