Sniper Protector (re uploaded) by ostoru
Protect the VIP from an ever increasing number of people who want him dead.
About the team, we are a bunch of guys that got together about a week before the jam, teamwork was surprisingly good for a team so superficially formed.
technical aspects: Main game was made in unity, 3d assets were done in blender and most textures made from scratch in krita. there is some unused stuff in the github (mostly bad art and animations). there is a ~~bug~~ feature that makes one of the bad guys get stuck behind cover. use that opportunity to take an stroll for the city.

@xeloglaz Thanks for the compliments! You raise some completely valid criticisms. An options menu absolutely should have been added and I'm kicking myself for not adding one. The growth is exponential so I will agree it does get out of hand faster than it maybe should.
@geraldfingburke That's a large part of where the idea came from. Thinking back, a cross-hair in the un-zoomed state would have probably helped with this.
@phillserrazina Glad you had fun.
@abilean Our artist was very busy during the jam and some unused assets probably found their way onto to game file. As for aiming, the wobbliness may be the mouse sensitivity (in game, not the mouse sensitivity you have set on your computer) or the moving from not-aiming to aiming states. There isn't any aim-assist and minimal added smoothing when zoomed, but the sensitivity is decreased when aiming to make it less jerky. Practicing smoother mouse movement probably wouldn't hurt, but then again neither would an options menu with an option to add more smoothing.
The option to jump out of the building and either go exploring or switch to close combat is even more fun.
The models are great, the city is beautiful. Good job.
