The graphics look nice, very retro but I love it!
The music convays the theme of the game pretty well (however, there is a problem, I could only hear it in my left ear, perhaps a bug?)
The gameplay fells nice, although the character controls a bit weridly (basically, pressing W and D at the same time to make it move diagonally would have been nice)
Overall, I like this game!

I noticed one guy in the upper left corner and it seems I couldn't reach him. Maybe an additional path might be nice.
Btw. I don't think a progression system is necessary. I mean, why you are killing the people? Because you want to feed the beast!
Greato Jobu! :smile:
Once I had an understanding on everything that could kill you in the game then the game really became enjoyable to play. The controls were really smooth and I loved the old CRT effect you had on the screen.
It would be great to see some randomness in the enemy AI but apart from that there is not a lot I could recommend to make this any better.
Really well polished game, thanks for the link :)
Very cool retro style and nice simple stealth gameplay. Good job!
I didn't quite get to see the ending there, so I replayed the game later and made a video.

good job overall!
Edit: so it did not pick up my microphone. Here are the main points I made in the Video
1. This is A nice short Entry
2. The Oldschool style really gives it a good mood
3. The Audio is good, unfortunately the main music does not loop correctly
@terry I am very proud that you liked it, it is one of the best things that I take with me from this jam
@blue-pin-studio @ausstein @iak
