  • I liked this one, very clever implementation of the theme. I liked that you have to get somewhat close to the enemy so you can see it, add some challenge to it, i died a lot lol.

This is quite an interesting take to the theme. Instead of going for it literally, you went with it figuratively; The ethics and morality of law enforcement.

Controls are smooth and the game is well-paced. Although the R button probably shouldn't be the Reset button, because R is usually for Reload in a shooter game, so I kept pressing it out of habit when I see my ammo running low and ended up restarting the level. I'm also assuming that the enemies in green shirts are invisible and not bugged out because I can't see them sometimes.

There's this bug that happens quite frequently if you want to be a Clean cop. Arresting a stunned enemy can sometimes lock you in the end of the animation, and you won't be able to shoot or use your nightstick. Picking up other weapons also doesn't un-lock you.

Thank you for the in depth feedback!
I was worried people would not agree with my interpretation of the theme, but I am glad you liked it.
And yeah, the R button should probably only reset you if you die, just like Hotline Miami.
Also the green shirt guys do disappear if you don't have a line of sight with them, in fact all enemies do, this is a mechanic that is not very clear because I could not put a tutorial in the game.
And indeed that is a bug, I was aware of it but could not fix it in time, at least the R button becomes useful when that happens haha.

And again, thanks so much for the comment, I really appreciate it!
