Sneak 100 by Noirox

[raw]
made by Noirox for Ludum Dare 54 (JAM)

In this entry for Ludum Dare 54, a prisoner has to evade her fellow inmates who have been infected with a dangerous virus turning them excessively violent and aggressive. The main character has to stay in the shadows to avoid being spotted and slowly make her way through the few unattended paths to the exit.

Avoid being spotted by any light to complete the game and use your environment to block light sources, open doorways and solve puzzles while steering clear of the threatening enemies. Good Luck!

If anyone needs the controls beforehand: - WASD to move around - Space to interact with note terminals - F to interact with Buttons and Numpads (YOU CAN HOLD THIS!)

I love the style of this game! SFX, art, and music go so well together. I really like the subtle rounding of the screen and the film grain effect! The leniency on getting caught with the screen turning red first is really appretiated. The code is wrong though in the text log, I think the actual code is... (To avoid spoilers I'll just say add 1 to the first and 3rd digits). I couldn't figure out what to do after putting the code in. Pretty good game nontheless!

@medow Thank you so much for the kind words! I just patched the game to display the correct code in the message, it would be a shame if that causes issues for more people.
As a hint, if you want to see our beautiful end-screen in-game: A green light has lit up somehwere south of the number pad. Thanks again for playing and giving us feedback, catching that was really valuable!

Amazing graphics and mood.
The post effect require a few minutes to get used to, but overall it's a solid entry! Well done!

@unfinished632 Yeah that one was a last minute addition xD. Glad you found it a bit scary! Our idea was to make the playable space limited through the red detection lights, but we modified it a bit and the levels have a lot more playable space than we initially planned... Anyways, thanks for checking out our game!

Very nice mood :) I like the lighting and the simplicity of the tileset.

Also I found a bug where you can softlock on top of this crate:

Endscreen reminds me of the ending of portal 2

Hope you had a nice jam and maybe give my game a try, if you like

Loved the style, but i had a lot of issues with collision where i would get stuck randomly on nothing, usually near a wall, but looking past that the game was great!

Great Graphics and Sound - Kudos! Moving boxes around was quite tricky and me or the boxes got stuck couple of times and i had to restart. i only wish there was more limited space :D

It totally feels like a horror game, the way how it showed you the areas where you shouldn't be worked really well to me, but even so there were some really scuffed situations where I just barely managed to escape. Good job by making that much pixel art in this time interval. And thank you for providing a fun sneaking experience

Whew, this was intense! At first I thought I lost instantly when the red light hit me and that it was just an animation of the screen going red before I lost, but when I realized that there's still time to escape it actually made it MORE scary lol. I definitely felt like I had very limited space in this game, and it's amazing how well you captured the emotion of fear here!
