It's too hard to be stealthy :(

What exactly are the guards supposed to be? They make the Secret Service look like wimps :)

I suggest trying to see the enemies' movement patterns from a distance and then use the dash to sneak through. :) Thanks for your feedback!

Will: The guards are robots! :P We actually decided to make them like that to avoid having to animate the legs, since we didn't have much time left. :)

It was enjoyable, how did your goat survive the explosion?

You know, we were wondering the same. I guess the goat is just cool like that.
We hoped to do a cutscene at the end, but didn't have time. :P

I love the sneaky tippy-toe animation. I wish the dash lasted for longer.

Solid entry! The goat at the end was rapidly flipping around, I assume this is a glitch.

Yeah, the boss battle is a bit unpolished, since we completed that near the end of the deadline.

Ha, so this is the place where presidents reside! Nicely done, I had a similar concept, but it didn't work out quite as full featured as this.

One word comes to mind: Dastardly. The character is sneaking continuously in his 70s cartoon suit and evil hooked moustache. Well executed. Took me a bit to figure out how to use the teacup bombs (nice touch again) What on earth are those hovering spectre-killers? Cool!

Superb game. I love the music and graphics, in particular the evil laugh you do every once in a while. The guards are kind of weird tho. Overall, really fun though the boss was a little easy and bugged out at the end.

Nice entry. I would vote for a shorter timer on the coffee bombs.

What do you mean exactly? Bombs are not timed, they explode when you press the K button again. :)

Decent atmosphere, but the controls felt slow and wonky. I don't know if it's just my computer though so I'll try again tomorrow. The white page contrasted too much, so I had to change it to black to not kill my eyes.
The graphic looked good but a little incoherent. Nice music.
The bossfight was... wierd.

Great job with graphics and sound. I realy like main character animation and music is very moody.

Good job :)

The controls are kind of clunky and the guards notice you even if you're behind them, which makes stealth difficult.

The dash bugs sometimes, but it's a good game, fun and well balanced. good job!

And I though I produced a scary animation, it is nothing versus those ones !

The stealth part of the game worked. Was a bit too easy. The boss fight was somehow strange, because he ran into walls or started to turn rapidly on one spot.

Sometimes the dash action is buggy. E.g. if I press the key multiple times with short pauses, nothing happens.

We don't have a HUD so it's not clear, but the dash is limited, so you need to wait a bit before using it again.
Thanks for playing!

Seems nice but sorry i can't play with WASD keys. I have an azerty keyboards. Think of arrows to control a character ;)

I really like the player's animation. It gives that cheesy villain personality, in a humorous way! :) A bit in the difficult side. The voice-over and sounds are great though!

Great game. Loved the graphics. Music was good for setting the mood but a little too repetitive. At the end I could not tell if it just kept repeating or not after I bombed the guy on the goat. It just kept repeating after that.

To AdricZero:
The ending was a bit rushed, I didn't know anything about it until I saw it myself. Unfortunately we didn't have much time and I couldn't create a track for it.
As a gamer I'm quite lazy myself and I don't like long loading times, so my main concern with the music was creating something really light, better suited for a game to be played over the internet.
Thank you for your feedback ;-)

Not bad - the bomb mechanic is pretty cool. The dashing was strangely unreliable though. After about the third area it seemed like the game could've used a bit of a twist to mix things up a bit. Still, nice work.
