Your lives are just numbers to me. - You, playing this.
You are a bounty hunter who trades in wanted criminals for money. Can you identify the perps in a sea of people? Don't let them get away!
Controls
Simply drag and drop the criminals onto the WANTED panel. DON'T falsely imprison people!
Check for five features: - Hair - Eyes / Glasses / Eye-patches / Scar - Nose - Mouth / Facial Hair - Ear
Powers
There are four powers that will help you: - The Freeze: Freeze everyone in time for 5 seconds. - The Spotter: Immediately points out a criminal if they are in the crowd. - The Snap: Vanish half the people in the crowd who are not criminals (Requires the strongest will. And $5000.) - The Extra Life: duh
*Helpful tip for those who are willing to read this far: The criminals on the wanted list only appear AFTER the bounty has been put out on their heads.*

I missed the compo deadline for Endgame. Worth it.
Cool little perception game! Face generation works great - there is resonable amount of variety and differences can be easily spotted even on those small walking people. That was critical for this kind of game and you've done it well! Powerups is nice touch. Only weird thing is that everyone is naked :D
Hey nice job with this game! It's really original - if not super stressful! It would be helpful if it was easier to distinguish between the peple better - that might make it a little easier. The powerups are cool but I'm too scared to choose one and take my eyes off screen for a split-second. Really really grear job!
Good idea! Good desighed and fun to play. I would have used a different font and some more details and the final screen looks a bit boring. But overall a very good game! Nice job!
Thanks everyone for the encouraging feedback! I'll save you the "I had limited time" response. I really focused on the experience this time, and it shows in the lack of graphical "wowness". Really proud of how fun (at least IMO) it is though.
@donitz That's great, you found the OP mechanics :laughing:. If I could redo I would probably switch the prices for Snap and Spotter. How far did you get? My record is level 22.
@jiri-hysek The face generation took most of my time, and there was no time for clothes :wink:
@scott-redrup You're right, I think that adding hotkeys for powers would have helped.
If you want to, screenshot your final screen and I'll compile a leaderboard for the players who got to the highest levels!
Haha, Congratulation on the character generator ! They all look stupid, but in a good way ! I just wish there was be a "true fullscreen" so we can see better.
Fun game concept, it gets harder the more people are on screen, maybe with a bit more polish on the graphics this could have been even more fun, while retaining the challenge of it, appreciated the thanos joke :D
Really good game. I got up to level 25, but it started to become really hard--I was mostly using my gigantic stockpile of cash from early levels to keep going. I think it might be better if the criminals came in at random times, instead of all at the same time, but either way it was really fun to play. Loved the art!
Really like the game. The gameplay is solid, whoever the art might need some work. I like the style that it creates, however a couple images here and there kinda looked off to me for whatever reason. All in all, great game! Keep up the good work. :)
When you're rock bottom at $0 and drag innocents into jail, you get a giant wave of people outta no where xd. Neat design and idea. Solid game loop, I would maybe suggest adding more colors for hair. Overall awesome game, good work.
@kritz I don't think that's due to my design, but I'll gladly take credit for it! :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes: Take it as a mob of people angry at your recklessness haha.
Cool little game! The face generation is really great, especially the female-hair with beard people made me laugh! :) The Abilities really add value to it.
It is a straightforward game, very easy to figure out what to do and how to keep doing it. The money penalty for letting a criminal escape is pretty harsh as there is already limited lives. Some features are hard to see with the screen resolution. I did like the jokes involved. The variety in facial features is good, would have been interesting to see some movement variance. Good job overall!

I really enjoy the concept. It kinda reminds me of a more casual Paper's please.
I would have used a different font and some more details and the final screen looks a bit boring.
But overall a very good game! Nice job!
