You are a villain on a train, causing mischief! Try to decide what action will be most villainous or otherwise useful as you explore the cars. When you are done (visited all cars) you will be awarded a title depending on your performance. Good luck!
Instructions are available in game, but here there are too:
Use LEFT and RIGHT to pick a train car, then ENTER to go in and take an action. Train cars are random each game and the length of the train can vary.
Your goal is to increase your Villain Points (VP) whilst not getting busted by keeping a low profile (ALERT < 100), not dying by keep healthy (HP > 0)and maybe get rich trying (GP)! Clearing all cars will end the game and give you a rating.

What an interesting game. It's small but nice to play and kinda fun. That music at the beginning is really loud and very out of place. However the recorded choo-choo-choos were really lovely.
The gameplay was very nice but it would have been nice to have had a bigger end to look forwards to.
My wife provided the sounds. The sound when you win is her impression of the World of Warcraft undead female doing the /train emote. Her favourite sound effect ever.
pretty funny! I would've like more scenarios for each car was it random? Maybe if they were all different, and different things happened if you did certain cars in order... There is a also no indication of close you are to getting caught (is it just 100?) Overall very nice!
The concept is actually pretty good. I played it twice. I also liked the funny sound effects of 'sh sh sh' and 'choo choo'. The chocolate coins were pretty humorous as well.
Really liked the sound of the intro music. Also, fun little game. There wasn't really any strategy, just random messages, but still entertaining. Well done for your first Ludum Dare ever! I hope you join the fun again.
Also, I lol'd at the homemade sound effects.

Simple, short too but afterall it's fun and really welldone; the sound FX (and some situations too) is hilarious!
Pinion, feel free to update your entry page; you are allowed to do that. The graphical style is simple, but engaging in a way. This pretty much plays out like a game of chance, but the humor used throughout provides for a fun little experience. I like it.
Interesting game, funny and different, but feels like it doesn't depends much on the player, I mean, I don't really feel like I'm playing the game, since some results seem kind of random..

Needs some more content, but the options that are available were interesting and funny! I hope you keep working on it :D
"Chu-chu! Chugga chugga chugga chugga..." Haha, so cool.
I like and dislike the choices at the same time. They are funny and interesting, but their randomness and unpredictability renders them mostly moot. It was still enjoyable for a few times. It's a bit hard to say whether I did particularily good or bad at the end of the game.
The art is not pretty, but serves it purpose in a minimalistic way.
