Yk this is a reallly cool idea.

I can imagine future levels where u get like 5 barbed wires and you have to plan how you move in the level to dodge as many as u can.

That is very unique and fits the theme very well aswell!

You have to escape but It it also YOU who is trying to stop you

I hope u go on to work on this further after the jam cuz Id absolutely LOVE to try more levels (maybe with sound :))

I get why this must have been hard to make in 48 hrs, but U did it anyways.. Good job!

The artstyle was also good to look at

Id say more visual and audio feedback for when u do stuff like placing barbed wire, walking into one and stuff would be nice!

And maybe U can see the no. of barbed wires in the game when Ur  the prisoner so u  can start to plan where to place the wires from the start?

If u do end up updating it, definitely hit me up! Id love to try out more of this :D

(Btw, why Middle mouse for barbed wire? wouldnt RMB be better? just a nitpick lol)

I really like the vibe and art, but it could be better. Otherwise, the game is good!

Interesting idea to play as both sides. I get the concept to fit the theme but this mechanic would be cool as a 2 player game too. Nevertheless good job on your game!

Someone else mentioned it but I also agree that using middle mouse button is an interesting choice, the only way I was able to figure that out was by reading the description so not very intuitive. Hopefully you can flesh out the game with more levels and obstacles cause I definitely see the potential! 

I think this game would work very well as a 2-player game. Have one player choose an escape path and the other place obstacles then run the simulation of whether or not the prisoner escaped. Then its a game of psychology, trying to get into the mind of what your opponent and how they would escape/setup.

Dang its sad that it is not finished. I can see it succeed. Bro finish it after the jam.
But the decision to use middle click to place barbed wire is kinda strange. I think it is more natural to use right mouse.

thank you 

I was gonna use right mouse for something else in the game but i didnt even get to add it 

overscoped by way too much
