Who Are You And What Are You Doing Here?? by Shatter Point Studios
A series of unbelievable robberies has the upscale community of Sanctuary Bay on edge. Security camera footage has shown the perpetrators of these crimes to be the victims themselves, though they claim to have no memory of the events.
The most recent of these robberies was stopped when a homeowner arrived as the crime was taking place. Caught in the act, the thief suddenly appeared to transform into someone else and escaped just as the authorities were arriving.
Faced with a thief that could look like anyone, the paranoid citizens of Sanctuary Bay have stationed guards all throughout their homes; restricted access to certain rooms only to the people that are supposed to be there. Anyone that is seen will be questioned about who they are, asked questions that only they will know the answers to.
If that transforming creep wants to steal what’s ours, he’s going to have do a bit of research first…
Controls:
WASD to move
Arrows to shapeshift
Numberpad 1-3 to answer questions
Backspace to leave separate screens
Space to open vault
Numberpad to enter code for vault
Updated 10:46PM 4/18/16
-Fixed issue crashing game at the beginning
-Fixed double description box
-Fixed bug keeping time from always counting down
NOTES:
We worked until the last minute on this, and we are aware that there are some bugs, and controls are not bvery clear. That said, we're immensely proud of the work we've done over the last 72 hours for our first game jam. This is a project we'd love to continue refining and working on, so any feedback you can give us would be greatly appreciated :D
Thanks,

2.) I tried the updated version. It eventually crashed with this message: "Unbalanced surface stack. You MUST use surface_reset_target() for each set." -- Also, the game kept dumping me out of full screen mode (especially with all of those damn pop-ups).
3.) Finally, the controls and UX could use some work. Having to turn on num lock and use the number pad is not very friendly. And if you make the user use WASD *and* the arrow keys, then it's more intuitive to let them move using the arrow keys.
Fixed the typo, thanks! Regarding the controls and message boxes, we made a lot of choices that were supposed to be temporary, but in the chaos of trying to get it done in 72 hours were left in. Our plan is to hopefully make some tweaks and release a "post-jam" version that is a little more user friendly.
Thanks for the feedback!
Not a bad premise for a game, but I would have played up the different identities and abandoned the security questions altogether...why are the guards grilling members of the household?
