How does the game fit the theme?
It's a hostage situation, life is on the line and you can't make any mistakes, otherwise someone might die. (Also you could get a low grade if you're slow but that's kind of the cheaper interpretation)
What code and assets did you not make from scratch during the jam (if any)?
All the Art was done during the jam, the code was partly repurposed from previous games but majority was writen during the jam. SFX were from my own libraries and pixabay.

Yeah I actually added an option to switch R for G in the pause menu. The difficulty I tried to address at least partially but the game gets much easier when you play more aggressively, by sticking close to enemies, but that's a bit counter intuitive if you don't actively get into that mindset. So definitely could have added a bit more pointers appart from the already present design choices like instant pickups at close range and the option to kick enemies.
The only way I know that the gun can point in a different direction is that if you shoot it before the character menages to return the gun to the previous position and angle after the recoil is applied. It's best seen with the Uzi which can rise about twenty degrees up if the trigger is held down. But shooting a pistol fast can also lead to a less extreme version of that.
Honestly I was out of stuff to do half way through the jam, like the gameplay was done in about 3 days with all the AI weapon polish and gamefeel, that's mostly why we had time for stuff like achivements, I know the banner is pretty bare bones I might work on it once I have enough time and eagerness to work on it. I might also add like a grime texure or other wear from the door in front so it's a bit more vissible, without taking too much from the gritty and desaturated worldspace.
