This is one of the best games, I've played so far in this jam! The sound effects are satisfying, and it's well-polished. I faced a similar issue mentioned by the devs below, but overall, it's exceptionally well-made. Great job!

Cool game!
Little hard to see, what's on the right corner, but fun of the process covers all!
Shooting mob pests, omg ))) Good use of the theme.
Really nice job and really fun!
Some minor issues/annoyances - the reticule not lining up with where the gun scoped in was a bit annoying, the hitboxes were a bit off and in my opinion, the models are a bit hard to tell apart when not scoped in, but other than that, very nice job!
I liked the game and the concept. especially with the theme around it.
Only issues I had were with the hitboxes.
Nicely done :)
The game was super fleshed out! The gun obstructing the view a minor annoyance, but impressive game!
The shoot feedback and sound were super satisfying! It was a bit difficult to read and remember all four target descriptions while figuring out which ones to shoot - but I guess that's also part of the fun. Great work!
Hey!
This is a cracking game.
You all did fantastic!
I love the graphics and the feeling of the sniper. Whoever did that hats of to you. I love the BOOM and pull back effect. Makes you feel powerful
The game overall is fantastic!
I proper love these games :)
However, the audio is a bit glitchy on the main menu for some reason!
I loved it! The noir ambiance is very well made, music and audio are extremely fitting and well made and the gameplay is fun and innovative. If i had to suggest a mechanic to implement it would be a key to hide for when they shoot you, but it's just an idea, it's not like the game actually needs it. Overall, a great game!
Great game! Very nice audio and atmosphere, shooting felt juicy and satisfying.
I liked the idea of tracking targets based solely on their descriptions, but noticed that all targets look like baddies. After that the game lost some of its puzzle elements and became more of a timing fps. But in ganeral it feels completed and very polished, Good job!
The shooting felt awesome & I loved the little intro screen :)) Thank you for creating this!
Probably the best game I have played so far! Very fun and enjoyable, although I found myself just checking whether they had a gun rather than using the cards on the left. Overall, absolutely great game.
It was a great fun game!
It was hard to read the profiling for each target, but I liked the idea of them. Maybe have a silhouette of the critter, a color splash on the card for the color of the critter, and a big number for expected floor.

Liked the overall vibe of the game. A little bit laggy on Web, but still playable. I think my one suggestion would be to, instead of having the profiling information on the left, just show the target's picture, this way you can have bigger pictures and you get a more effective means of communicating who to kill. Nice job overall :)
Their real crimes were wearing fedoras...
This really is fantastic. You really nailed the film noir feel and nailed the game jam theme to boot. The controls feel great. I can just see a full game like this, different locations, a store to spend the cash. You left me wanting more, that's a good thing!
