You and your loyal kobold minion rob the poor people of Ludum.
Distract the curious victim on the left with your charm and skills while your Minion performs some sneaky sleights of hand.
Use the mouse to follow the path of the diamond in order to keep the victim distracted. Meanwhile use your other hand to type in the words at the top to perform the criminal act.
That art style was really unique and the gameplay was quite interesting, it was hard to concentrate on both hands while looking at the screen, i liked that game !
Nice idea ! I didn't have to follow the path with the mouse though, just clicking on the gem when he stopped moving (then again, it may be 'cos I use a stylus, not a mouse).
Great graphics. Very cool concept. Challenging and fun. Yet, it seemed to go on forever. What happens when the shield moves all the way to the right? Nothing as far as I could tell.
Good graphics, audio, matching theme, funny voices and innovative gameplay! I'm missing scores, possibility of failure, and my laptop doesn't feature both trackpad and keyboard use (no idea why) so its either typing or tracking the diamond for me. All in all nice setup, it is just missing a goal.
I loved this game! I liked how you combined thematic graphics and music together. Voice acting really fits in the there as well! Too bad you can't win (or can you?) Interesting mechanics using mouse for coordination and keyboard to type letters - it's not that simple. BIG PLUS from me :)
Intersting concept, and it looks great! Was definitely tricky wrestling with the two activities. Could do with some feedback, and indeed the timer seemed to run out with no effect.
Thank you all for your feedback! The game was indeed not finished and there was no way to lose, the game did not end and the "score" wasn't tracked. We continued working on it and were able to implement most of the features now. Check out the new version on: http://oldtrigger.com/sleightofhand/dev The version for the jam entry is not being changed of course.
I ust say, it took me a while to read the text under to understand the game :)
Good luck and nice coding
