Tourist Trap by Pajama-Llama
Hey everybody!
This time for our new jam we made Tourist Trap, a game where you have to lure tourists to your pizzeria through the narrow streets of Venice.
You can lure tourists by playing your music in the right rhythm, or you can scare them away by playing false notes.
We were a bit too ambitious I think and made the game a bit too complicated, so if you have difficulties, let us know!
Edit: Disabled WebGL Build because it appears to be broken.
Edit2: Fixed MipMap Settings which caused tourists to look pixelated

The controls didn't seem to give very helpful feedback. I wasn't sure if I was pressing the buttons on time or not. I also feel like an "attraction" bar or some indicator to let you know tourists are following you could help.
Over all, quit encie!
Curious and fun game idea.
The QTE gameplay was a little bit repetitive.
I did have a problem that there were only 2 groups of tourists, so once they'd gone for pizza there was nobody else to lure into my cheese and tomato trap.
I'd perhaps make the levels shorter or have tourists coming out of shops. Maybe a mechanic for later levels would be having people that you DON'T want to go to the Pizzeria.
The hand-drawn art is really pretty, and there's a lot of it. I like the style a lot.
I made $300!
Good Music TOO
The graphic style is really neat and I like the music. Having to ruin the music to get people to go into the restaurant was unfortunate. The timing for key presses was also not quite intuitive.
It's a good idea, overall, but it right now it's the sort of game where you could memorize the best route and be done with it, more or less.
