The seemingly randomly generated malls are very fun to explore, and the control scheme for the core mechanic is really great once you get used to it. I got a little greedy in the 5 minute mode, stuffing probably 15 pc towers into my cart, only to find that rapidly pushing forward only inched me along. The graphics, sound, and music also have a lot of character. I especially love the goofy store signs. \n\nOne thing I would love to see would be one or two really pricey stores in every mall. That could definitely up the challenge and reward the player for exploring every area. Anyways, had a lot of fun with this one.","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"THX1342","author_uid":"1061143","time":"2017-12-05T12:29:42Z","epoch":1512476982,"modified":1512476982,"text":"Seems like an awesome idea! The soundtrack is solid and if the mall is randomly generated... wow! I'll look into your source code because this could be awesome for a roguelike :)\n\nIn terms of playability, I'm not sure if this is what was intended but the cart is absurdly painfull to turn, even when empty. Holding down S or A (or spamming each key individually) lets me turn something like 1-2 degrees per second. Is this the goal or is it a bug for me?? This made me not ennjoy the game as much\n\nBut congratulations on the idea!","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"iseeicy","author_uid":"1003777","time":"2017-12-05T20:16:24Z","epoch":1512504984,"modified":1512504984,"text":"@thx1342 hmm.. that's odd.

The map generator is really impressive, and the audio was really spot on. Held my attention for a long time, there's just something satisfying about looting a bunch of crap from a mall. It was a little difficult to get items into the cart, but I got used to it. Also, 5 minutes seemed a little short for exploring the mall, I feel like a 10 minute mode would have been cool (I suppose that would be easy to add in, so not a big deal).

This game is pretty incredible for that reason alone. Its fun just to scramble and grab things, and the shopping cart controls feel really good! A sprint button may be helpful when on foot, but I can see where that may break the game a bit. \n\nI love the idea of exploring an abandoned mall in real life, and the somewhat spooky tone of the game on top of that is awesome.

I REALLY liked the procedural mall aspect and the general idea behind the game was fantastic.\n\nI do wish however there was more time. The controls are quite clunky (except for the shopping carts which aren't clunky enough :wink: ) and it's a little difficult to get stuff into your shopping cart.

I wish the procedural generation played a larger role than it seemed to. The procedural mall was the coolest part of your game and I feel it's only real spotlight is that awesome loading screen (that was probably your debug screen) and a mode that doesn't really count for anything (unless I am completely assuming the wrong thing about free mode)\n\nAn idea that you should have done (and probably could still do) is remove the timer and make the game about not getting caught. The more you get the more suspicious you are but you get as long as you like so long as you make it out with the loot safely. If you want to get really creative you can populate the mall with people who may or may not remember you or something.\n\nOf course that's just an idea and I completely understand that you didn't have the time to do something like that.

The different modes act as a sort of difficulty, making free-play the easiest to get a high score on.\n\nInteresting ideas, although I'm not sure I want to take the game in that kind of direction. I really like the vibe of an abandon place that's supposed to be populated (such as a dead mall). Something I'm considering is making it multiplayer and creating a team V team kinda gamemode, although I'm not sure that's realistic as I would need to revise a lot of my code to make it multiplayer friendly. Still, it's not completely out of the question.
