The post processing really sells the art style!\n- Cool gameplay idea! (It's not everyday that I get to be a drug dealer!)\n- Cool level design!\n- Music is cool!\n\nCons:\n- Not enough game optimization. (I played on my laptop instead of my desktop and even on very low it was having some trouble.)\n- Levels seem a little too open, they need a bit more of a focus imo. It's kinda hard to find the \"clients\" sometimes.\n- Maybe tone down the motion blur just a little.","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Steve Sparkes","author_uid":"1009961","time":"2018-08-15T15:34:43Z","epoch":1534347283,"modified":1534347283,"text":"Nice job on the entry! The game could run a little better! Maybe try making smaller levels with fewer people in them. Though it's a really cool idea to have a large amount of people you have to weave through to avoid the officers. The turn speed of the character could be a little faster if you're going for tank controls. :) The mood of the game was great, trippy city environments whilst you're trying your find your away around to your customers. Good job, keep making games!","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"NotLivingPool","author_uid":"1113568","time":"2018-08-16T04:14:50Z","epoch":1534392890,"modified":1534392890,"text":"@steve-sparkes @kippllo \nThanks for the feedback, I do agree with you that the level were way too big.

I agree with you with the motion blur. It was a split decision, but a majority of the team agreed to it. As for the maps, we had a few smaller and enclosed maps, but we couldn't figure out how to add collision on the camera in time, so whenever you played those maps, your camera is almost always in the walls, so we had no choice other than to use the open ones.","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"MeschDog17","author_uid":"1105698","time":"2018-08-16T04:23:07Z","epoch":1534393387,"modified":1534393387,"text":"Nice game, I was a little lost though.

Originally, we added a minimap on the top-right corner, but it seemed really off and out of place, and it ruined the whole style and theme of the game, so we removed it.

The graphics are nice and the effect when you interact with a customer is really cool looking. The music is good but could use a bit of variation. It'd be nice if the player moved faster given the size of the level, and also if there was some kind of indicator to at least reveal the direction of the closest customer. I'd like to see cops patrolling through the inner area too to increase the challenge.\nI think a game like this where you deal drugs at a concert\/festival while avoiding security would be awesome.
