MinimizeArt by ahm99
This is a game about a person who hates minimal art (see: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minimalism). He hates it so much that he decides to minimize it by breaking into a museum/art gallery, stealing all the art, AND BURNING IT!
//////////// PLEASE READ //////////
// WARNING MAY CONTAIN POTATOES
// Java 7 required
// NOTE. THE TIMER IS POST-COMPO. I WANTED TO SEE HOW FAST YOU ARE
// POST YOUR TIME
// You can't grab paintings while moving (feature)
// There are only two levels but the second one is hard.
// Please play to the end as there are things I want you to see
// TO RESTART FASTER, SIMPLY HOLD SPACE AND THE KEY WILL REPEAT.
// My best time (and probably fastest possible) is 25
// (post-compo hard difficulty)
// POST-COMPO INFO
// See post compo speedrun here: http://youtu.be/sJetktlg7fE
Added difficulty levels
Added sound and music
Changed player image
My INSANE speed is: 23
// SOURCE INFO
// Source includes a script to compile the source (requires jdk)
Controls:
Arrow keys to move.
X to steal a painting (you don't have to steal them all)
Avoid guards by hiding in the dark
Remember, It's all about timing.
I had things to do so I ran out of time to catch bugs, which I will fix. I will also make a post compo.
Also, this is the first game I'm actually proud of.
Thanks for playing

(Unrelated: I ported my game to Windows if you want to check it out.)
Good graphics and fun to play. Good job.
Also I like to play some java-games from time to time :D
Funny introduction and "caught" sequence.
Problem: I have to release the arrow key before pressing X to steal a painting.
Bigger problem: I have to restart from the beginning when I'm caught.
Otherwise seems like a decent simple game; not sure how it evolves after level 2 because I didn't pass it.
