  • I don't know how you went from swipe to pinching butts and slapping people, but good job! The art style really takes me back to the young days of the internet, and the sound effects are perfect. Only issue was figuring out I needed to drop the stolen item and back out to "succeed"

  • Gorgeous art. The theme and style are great. However I wasn't able to fully pickpocket anyone; might be a bug. The window seems to be way too large by default. When I lost all 3 lives, it seemed like the game simply stopped.

  • Really fun sense of humor, and a really polished concept for a mini pick-pocket game. Good use of the theme - allowing the players to swipe with mouse movement is a nice visceral mechanic. There is good suspense during the pick-pocket phases of the game.
