Nice background, textures, and shooting audio. The cops would glitch out and get stuck on walls, and i could seem to kill the other things.

The game plays well, has defined goals, and a good pace. Unlike modern games yours actually makes me want to be a cop and not a bad guy, with them always dodging every shot!

Pretty well done. \r<br\/>Adding a separate animation for the legs of the characters (bellow them to give depth) would add more fluidity to their animation and help characterize more the avatar and the enemies. Adding a darker border line to the maze walls would help to differentiate them from the ground.\r<br\/>Telling the controls on the start menu or on the description would help too :) ."},{"author_name":"dcolgan","author_uid":"2293","time":"Sep 5, 2015 @ 2:56am","epoch":1441421460,"text":"Pretty good, I liked the idea and everything worked well enough.
