Ranked from 9 ratings. Score is adjusted from raw score by the median number of ratings per game in the jam.

How does the game fit the theme?
Every day you are able to pickpocket NPCS, and every NPC pickpocketed on a given day gives you bonus money, but makes getting caught much easier alongside that.

What code and assets did you not make from scratch during the jam (if any)?
All code made by me. Lots of art and music were made by others, credits in description.

Fun simple mechanic for this one and well executed! I ended up getting the +100 to pickpockets upgrade in the first shop which meant it was pretty easy to win in day 2. Few minor feeback/suggestions: Maybe you could add UI to show how close you are to getting caught also maybe there could be police roaming around who you cant pickpocket in front of as an added mechanic. Also would be good to know how much money you have in the shop (unless maybe I missed that). Cool game though, well done!

Thank you so much for your feedback, if I ever plan on updating this I would definitely take all of those into consideration, all of the ideas, especially the police one, which is actually brilliant and I'm now dreading how I couldn't think of something as smart as that. Again thanks for playing :D

Hey, this is actually well made. Loved the pixel art and the little game to complete the theft is well thought out. 

Great work!!

Liked the game and the idea. found it a bit hard. All we need now is the Mac Pro wheels and 50 apple polishing cloths.

Of course, I can't wait for the sequel where you need to get $50000 for those polishing cloths 😍😍😍
