How does you game fit the theme?
Our game is based on the idea that the main character is quite anti-social and secluded and therefore wants to be alone. He must collect the items he needs, as he make his way through crowds of people (that he need to avoid in order to not lose) so that he can finally earn some quality time by himself.
Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
Yes as a pair c:

Loved the art and mechanic of the game! Just the right amount of difficulty. The body pillow was a nice touch. Great work!
Original concept and good art. It reminds me of Deltarune.
Thank you so much! That's quite the compliment.
Excellent stealth game! Trying to dodge the throngs of people was enjoyable. The pixel art was nice, and although the sounds were very quiet, they sounded fantastic. Since you can hide in the corner and wait for a long in coffee shops, some hurdles, like the people rotating around the crosswalks, were a touch too slow to be much more of a challenge than a discomfort. However, other obstacles, like the people at the anime festival, were enjoyable to avoid. If you want to would you feel like rating my game please? Or if not then you could help the people in the need of rating catogory. What ever you choose it is up to you. Keep up the creation of fun games :)
Nice work! The art has a ton of personality and I think the controls mesh very well with the core mechanics.
Apart from sound (there is almost none, which takes a bit of game feel away) the game is cool and has a nice idea behind it. Avoiding crowds is actually challenging! The art looks really good and has its personality! Good job overall!
Pretty nice stealth game! Was fun to try to avoid the crowds of people. Sounds were extremely quiet but they sounded good and the pixel art was nice. Certain obstacles like the people rotating around the crosswalks and the people in the coffee shop were a bit too slow where its more of a pain than a challenge (especially since in coffee you can hide in the corner and then you're just waiting for awhile) but other obstacles such as the people in the anime con were fun to dodge
It was pretty good!
so someone actually made a simulator of me. Jokes aside, I like the graphics and an actual way it feels like. I guess, the only problem is that the game doesn't have any sounds (or almost doesn't). Overall, very nice game!
Yeah unfortunately we kinda saved sound for last, it was my first jam I guess It's a learning moment for next time! Thank you for playing.
Its a pretty nice little game, though theres some small annoyances.
Its a bit unclear how to reduce the redness of the ring, and also i couldnt seem to close the end screen and had to open task manager to do it. Also the game has a folder labeled as "do not ship" which im pretty sure was not supposed to be packaged with the game.
Overall its somewhat comedic and doesnt have any super glaring issues. Good job!
Reminds me of a stealthy hitman game. The graphics are amazing too. 9/10. One of the best games in the jam.
If you don't mind, could you play and review my game? I need some constructive criticism lol.

The hitman games definitely crossed our mind as inspiration ;) Thank you a lot!

Fun stealth mechanic!
The graphic design and gameplay were smooth, and I enjoyed the little circular detector that informed me how much I needed to stay away from others. Fun concept overall!
I'd recommend a more challenging mode with less time or perhaps more people to avoid.
Well done!
P.S. Would you mind checking out and rating my game? I have a hunch that you'd enjoy it!
I really appreciate the feedback. We definitely considered adding some more levels that would be a bit more challenging but since time was limited we tried to make is as accessible as possible.
I will check it out :)
Awesome art, the palette is fire! Honestly, didn't expect the theme interpretation! Really funny honestly, congratulations!
Pixel art is an absolute bomb D:
Music is very cool as well, good job :D
Some really great pixel art, though thought the difficulty could've been ramped up slightly. Overall it was a chill experience though with some really good work!
Body pillow for the win!!! That animecon finale was intense!
That was funny. Loved the body pillow "necessity".

He can´t live without it ahah
Nice! I really liked the idea and its implementation. The graphics are great too!
Simple but solid level design made it worth playing! I like the graphics too.
Fun game, the audio was a little hard to hear. Overall relaxing and I loved the art. Great work!
So glad you enjoyied it :) Thank you
