I also love the title and use of the theme!\n\nIt is, however, very difficult to control the character, which makes the game annoyingly difficult. If you fix the movement, then I think the game would be a lot of fun.","likes":2,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"slimabob","author_uid":"1008624","time":"2017-05-01T04:03:59Z","epoch":1493611439,"modified":1493611452,"text":"Nice!

I feel like the choice to use 3d assets kind of harmed the game, and combined with the lack of sound (maybe just for me?) really threw me off the engagement.\nId' like to see this with more polish, as I think that this is what currently needs a fix the most.","likes":2,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"wildmusketeer","author_uid":"1016643","time":"2017-05-01T04:32:20Z","epoch":1493613140,"modified":1493613140,"text":"I really like the take on the theme of \"it's a small world after all\", and the game concept was also pretty solid. \n\nI think the game needs better pacing though (e.g. having a count down\/audio cues for people getting near you...etc). \n\nI liked that you used the red particles to indicate where the items are located in the store, but I think it would have been pretty helpful to have a shopping list like the UI you used for endscreen (which was a nice touch on a notebook paper, since it's usually teachers that run into you haha!)

The game was fun to play, at first I didn't know I had a list of stuff to get so I just hid in the corner until I saw the countdown.  \n\nThe controls need a bit of tweaking and it would be really nice if the camera was rotatable, but hey, what can you do in one weekend, right?\n\nGood entry, nice take on 'small world' theme!","likes":2,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"aaranos","author_uid":"1001577","time":"2017-05-01T19:19:33Z","epoch":1493666373,"modified":1493666373,"text":"You should fix your web link, it appears to be https:\/\/rmershon.github.io\/LDJam\/index.html not Rmershon.github.io. The web version crashed when I hit play as well so I had to go back and download it.\n\nI think it is crashing because of how quickly things start when you load the game. The windows build also took awhile to load the level. When I start I immediately lose as well because someone is standing right on me. After a few attempts I got to play since it seems random spawns are the culprit.\n\nI like the idea of the game. I think if the player could move a little faster it would be a bit easier as well.\n","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"npatrick96","author_uid":1010838,"time":"2017-05-01T20:10:22Z","epoch":1493669422,"modified":1493669504,"text":"I loved this game. The 3d structure of the grocery store is on point! \n\nOne thing that probably needs to be changed is the initial position of the biology professor. I ran into her immediately after  I pressed the play button. Changing her position probably to the back of the grocery store would give the player some time to adjust to the game and to move around before getting caught.
