Excellent game! Great playability, and the pause concept was rock solid. Nice work!

Yo this is super solid! I expected it to be just a platformer, but its a wonderful mix of puzzle and platformer. Level design was especially great, introducing the player into mechanics without outright saying "you can double jump" in the game.

The Great DuckscapeGreat game. I loved how you played with this red lava or whatever it is and made a bunch of very interesting levels. The limitation used very well. Good job :D

The Great DuckscapeI like this game a lot! It’s really fun, looks good, and feels good. Some of the levels had almost a puzzle aspect to them, and overall it felt really enjoyable!

Crime CommandVery nice game and the core idea resembles my game, so it's great haha!

Perfect CrimeIt's one of my favourite mini game in this jam. Almost everything works perfects. Although a little work on tilesets and reset button would be nice :)

Lady Crime in Wizard TowerSimple and very solid little platformer, with tight controls and good uses of the pause mechanic. The puzzles could have been a bit harder and more original, but otherwise I have nothing to complain about.

Jay Walker: Rogue PedestrianControls feel great and tutorial is always nice to have. Overall it works really well

Hard Streets Of CheeseThe movement controls feel good, it's enjoyable to jump everywhere with this little character.
I like the use of the pause mechanic limitation, which is pretty well used in your different levels, which seem to be all there to show how to use it, and all the different level design mechanics.
Good work :).

Halt BeatI don't know what makes him a thief unless the yellow is gold, but this game probably has the best use of limitation!

Illegal EnlightenmentReally cool concept and theme! I think having a pause-bar which is consumed on using the pause will give the concept a little bit more of a challenge (or if you want to go more Celeste, get your strawberry-pause collectibles). Personally, the firsts levels are a bit too easy (I felt like playing a tutorial over and over again). Anyway, I think it's a good entry and I would love to see an iteration over this!

Purse Light Thief NightI agree, this game gives me a ton of Celeste vibes! the game is great and I would love to see this expanded. The only thing is that the time stop is a bit over-powered and can make a ton of the levels a cake walk.
