City Mayhem by Simon Rahnasto

This has some unfortunate consequences, the bigger your fortune grows, the more the police gets interested in having you end up in a coffin. (They don't mind the murdering, but you are not paying taxes on that gold!)

The first enemies you encounter are slow and useless, but as you progress through the game, more difficult enemies come after you. After robbing a couple of banks, you start becoming fond of the annoying tune that you hated at first. You might even be humming along. It wasn't until this stage of the game that the game actually became challenging and really fun to play. It didn't feel like the same game anymore. Turns out that, being chased by multiple SWAT teams coming in from all different directions while wielding two fully automatic assault rifles and avoiding all the bullets and enemies that are scattered all over your screen, is pretty damn fun.
It was also at this point that I realized that the creators chose to include the word "Mayhem" in their title.
Obviously, the game is rather unfinished and buggy, but the small/silly details, the challenging gameplay and the odd art style is what nails it for me. Oh, and a special shout out to the programmer that had to do the art himself!
I feel like there should be a way to gain health.
If there's something that we could spend the tons of gold on, that would be amazing.
Also, thanks for your detailed feedback on "Spring Clean - DO NOT CROSS"! <3
Very good effort, well done!
Nice work!
