I liked it. Hideo Kojima should take notes :)
Good game! I like the concept behind it and how the game controls overall. The volume setting is a much appreciated inclusion, but unfortunately it seems to reset back to the default volume when returning to the main menu, which happens frequently since you have to go to the main menu to pick the next level.
Besides that, nice work!
I enjoyed playing this! At first, I didn't do well because I didn't realize just how close you needed to get to the other critters for the scaring to work. I expected there to be some "breathing room" rather than fully touching the critters. Once I figured it out, I had no issues. The gameplay was really smooth. I really appreciated the different creatures and environmental elements that got added into later levels. The only thing I missed was I didn't see a "next level" button after completing a level and just picked them from the level select at the main menu. Nice work!
Nice job, very cute concept and I like all of the character sprites!
Didn't get that I was supposed to scare, not avoid the critters at first. Cool twist and well done!
This is a fun stealth game! The bear's animations are really charming. Overall well done!
At first I was expecting to avoid the critters, not to scare them. Very original idea! Good job!
I like the idea of being the dangerous creature in a stealth game :) The art and music combined also reminds me a lot of old Atari or C64 games. Nice job!
Very interesting gameplay idea, good job :)
Nice twist on a typical stealth game. Maps could feel tighter and there could be more threats to add to difficulty. Good job!
It's a classic top-down stealth game. Not a bad way to do your first jam.
Something's strange about the audio slider. It does not smoothly adjust the audio, but instead jumps to various volumes. To correct this, use the slider's _value_changed() signal and use the audio server's set_bus_volume(master, linear_to_db(value)) function.
I like scaring people. Nice game.
Very cool retheming of a stealth game! The top down style and music reminded me of playing the original Metal Gear for the MSX (is that your inspiration, perhaps?). I quite enjoyed it :)
Actually, we didn't really have an inspiration. I was inspired for the soundtrack by Ghosts 'n Goblins, but our idea was really just a horror game where you are the scary guy. Nonetheless, I'm glad you enjoyed it!
I like the reversal of the expected stealth mechanics! I had a great time scaring critters, and the music was perfectly sinister but also goofy.
The audio was extremely loud for me, even at the lowest setting, so maybe if the default audio was in the middle of the slider or so would be helpful.
Good job, this game was very fun!
Yeah, the audio slider was added in by one of our team members the day before we submitted we didn't really think to revise it. Glad you enjoyed our game, though!
This was a cute take on a stealth game. I liked how you included sound triggers as well as sight triggers for being able to be detected.
Game is super fun especially the way the animals and obstacles are placed makes you play quite tactfully. The bear animation was too good, great job.
interesting take on a stealth game! that is the scariest teddy bear ever haha
if you've got time to have a play of my game i'd really appretiate it <3
Fun game! Bear animation is very cute. I do wish there was a way to restart levels when you mess up, for the harder ones.
It is so fun to scare these critters haha, nice work, it is a fun little game!
Thanks!
