A stealth game in which you play a convicted criminal who is tired of prison life and decides to break free. Luckily, all the guards have the kind of AI that you can program in the 10/12 hours you have free over the weekend.

- Includes Goats

Pretty neat graphics. And yea, the AI is a bit wonky at times, but that's fine. Good job!

Pretty fun. Great graphics. Kinda hard.

Neat little game, fun to play and complete. The AI was rather weird, but the rest of the gameplay was fine. Graphics worked well too. Overall, awesome work for the time.

Nice little game!

Is pushing the guards upwards a game mechanic? Nice if so.

Besides that you aren't really a villain.

@Mista Koo yeah it is, you need it to solve the final level :P and I realised that near the deadline so I added a bit of outtro text that made you seem more like the bad guy

Fun game, but why are there sacks of gold in prison? o.O

I really like that jum-on-the-policeman-head mechanic, it feels innovative :)

Am I the villain? What if I was wrongfully accused?

Jackauthor24 Dec 2012, 20:54

@Encircle because the guards run a money-laundering operation out of the prison laundry

I liked the sunlight, I was unsure of the AI so I thought maybe I had to stay in the shadows. I used the bouncing on top more than the hitting from the bottom, mostly because the top was the only safe spot. Had a pretty hard time on the 3 or 4th level (the one with the guard on the 2nd level), though I could better at it. I also tried getting the goat but once all the guards see me it's pretty much all over for me.

Fun, but very tough! It would be nice if you could do something to neutralize the banker/guards other than jump on their heads. They need to stay down just a little longer. Add sound effects for a mood enhancer.
