Hi, great game you made there. The concept of someone walking around and transforming into a potted plant is simply hilarious to me. Good Job!

Very challenging but it was fun to learn the AI movement patterns and hide accordingly. Winning was very satisfying. It was also very funny and soul crushing when I sat in an open spot and the AI just walked into me, so I figured to not do that. The player detection could be a bit more forgiving but other than that it was solid. Nice music too.
Thanks for the feedback!
With GB studio there weren't many options for the player detections and there are a couple of workarounds I needed to make for performance, I tried to balance it with distance but changing just the minimum distance made way more difference than I expected so I left it as it is. I'm not fully happy with it either, maybe with more experience in the engine I'll eventually figure out how to achieve a better result, I tried to compensate with level design and easy patterns to predict but couldn't test it enough either.
I thought this was a really cute game and concept! I got caught a couple of times despite being behind a wall, but it was fun regardless!

Love Always Runs AwayInteresting concept.
I can't figure out if enemies saw me even when I was still, or if I suck at stealth games.
Nice presentation, very authentic.
