Grand Theft Minimal by krangGAMES

made by krangGAMES for LD26 (COMPO)

v0.5 of a full product, thanks LD for the inspiration!

No "gameplay" per se, but it's pretty fun to drive around the city of Metrovan. Explore the park, find a fast car and jump across the docks, skulk through alleyways, hijack cars to your heart's content. Just don't fall in the water!

Also included is a development timelapse, and an image gallery with screenshots and in-dev pictures.

Enjoy <3

Surprising how well this idea works.

Nice work! Love the huge city. Car-variety is also quite cool

Really ambitious, it's good to see that you got the cars to waypoint.

Probably the best use of the theme I've seen in 40-50 I've played. In its most basic stripped down state, THIS is GTA. Really superb job. Hope to see this go somewhere post comop.

It was pretty fun to play, but lacks any story of challenge after you get bored of cop cars, but pretty fun to play none the less

This is awesome! I had a lot of fun driving around in this :D I love the idea of making this painting into an actual city!

Probably the best appropriation of Mondrian's work into a game I've ever seen :D this is so full of character, the few little easter eggs you've thrown in (yeah I drove all the way around the dark to see what those white pixels were in the map-image you posted earlier :D ) and the various kinds of cars.

I played a couple of earlier builds of this game, so I was surprised playing this version to see the police cars actually giving chase, it was a nice touch :D

Amazing tech demo there. Looks like the start of a great game!
The AI is perfect already, just as dumb as in GTA :-)

This game really fits theme. That was funny to see how twenty police cars were trying to cross small street :D

Good job on the path finding.
