#More info:
#
#As soon as people see a victim the will stand on watch and
#you cannot kill or eat in their immediate vicinity. This is
#a shortcut for a feature i meant to implement but didnt get
#around to. It is basically the only challenge that is in
#the game. As far as i know it is not beatable. And even if,
#there is no win condition. At this point this is only
#eating people :D
#
#
#There will be a post-compo version, although i'm not sure
#it will live up to what i have in mind for it. I will
#announce future versions on twitter(@wzl_) though.

Nice job, by the way!
Looking forward to see where you take it.

The music is nice and catchy, but I realy don't think it matches the splashscreen or the actions you can make
Also, were those back alleys meant to be used?
A bit lacking in actual game-ness, maybe? But made-up for it with the humour. The music is just so jolly!
Love the sprites too really well done!
Graphics are very well done :)
Besides a few quirks like no z-sorting so sometimes I was standing on people's heads, it was quite fun and flawless! Trying to kill people in relative secrecy so I could scarf down the entrails was fun!
You should definitely add some more game elements and you'd have a fully fleshed out game ready for people to enjoy en masse! ;D
Overall I liked it.
I like how it doesn't just end with you killing and eating: You have to watch over the corpse too to kill people before they become on-lookers. And you also have to decide between when to kill/eat and when to just kill and eat later when you have a minute. These two mix in an unexpected element of strategy - well done!
The sound effects are really cute and clash with what you are doing - making it hard for me to feel like a villain. Still, the theme is there, and what it loses in Mood it makes up in Humor. The graphics work well.
All in all, a fun entry!
The Onomnom sound effects were hilarious.
By the way, as the game stands right now, it is better to try to kill as many people as fast as possible, and worry about eating the corpses later. A good strategy is to work from the back of a walking line. :-)
Thanks for the fun game!
