My third Ludum Dare!

There is a peaceful park. There are some peaceful hipsters and some peaceful cops just living their peaceful lives.

There are more cops now! You hire bodyguards. Cops and bodyguards fight! You get caught...

Controls: - arrow keys to move - space key to hire a bodyguard for 5$

Used tools: - Unity3D 2017.2.0 - Photoshop - Audacity - https://soundation.com/studio - Fonts: Acme

Lol the audio was funny. Got really hectic really fast. Seems like the hipsters liked being robbed about as much as the police wanted to catch the thief.

It's really Delightful to play(pun intended). Smooth movement and easy mechanic. The ramp-up difficulty is just good enough so that it won't get boring, or that it gets too difficult to fast. The text can be hard to read. It's not that easy to notice how many money you have (maybe make it bigger?). Luckily I did read the description of the game before playing, but if someone wouldn't they wouldn't understand what the criteria is to get bodyguards, as it's not intuitively said to the player.
For the next Ludum Dare, I suggest you take a look a bit at UI of other games to see how they explain the controls in a easy way.

I really enjoyed the couple of minutes I played the game for, and we understand the hard work needed to create something like this, especially doing everything by yourself in such a short time-span. :) Our team also worked hard to create a game for the jam.

And it just kept getting worse and worse

This game is very fun, and could be borderline addictive. The idea of holding as few bodyguards as possible to increase your score as high as it can gets very alluring. And yet, the extreme difficulty does make them a necessity. For a game this "simple", it does have a very interesting high-risk-high-reward mechanic.

Overall, the game is quite well constructed. The monotone "fuck off" cracked me up the first time I heard it. A bit crass, but still, very amusing for the spectacle.

Well, there's really not much else to add on my front. I'm actually very happy I was able to play this game. In behalf of my team, we want to see more games this fun from you in the future. Kudos! :whale:

Simple mechanism, but turned into a fun game that got me playing for a fairly large amount of time! Also, I laughed with it, which had not happened yet with any other game. Well done!
