Funny idea! I included it in my Open Jam 2018 compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look. :)

Great twist to the theme! And a funny one. The how-to-play is a bit overwhelming, but after a few seconds of gameplay it fits. Controls are a bit funky, it seems left-right rotates around a pivot point I can't understand.

Overall a good game, it's nice to see other Godot contributions. Nice job!

I think the game is fun and hits the theme, i really enjoyed it. The controls are clear and responsive, and the only con is that i feel it was a little easy and i am not sure if you could die or just the cops increase your level of awareness so you collect less money.


Really great game overall, i really hope it gets more attention.

Thanks for playing! I did have a tough time balancing the difficulty of the game. It seemed too easy to me as well, but I wasn't sure if that was because I played it a million times haha. 

Originally, I did have the player die by having their effectiveness drop to zero, but did not have a clear victory goal. When I added in the high score piece at the end, I ended up removing the death mechanic and just relied on the drop in effectiveness.
