love the idea! some sound effects (and also the music doesn't loop!) would've been a good addition

Good job on the art, I like the style. An indication when you are actually begging would be good, and of course sounds would help the mood. Pretty soild game though, congratulations!

Cood idea. but it would be cool if there were sounds.

Agreed on wanting music to loop and wanting some sound effects, even just a simple cash register sound when getting money/purchasing items, but I really love the design of it all, I really got the impression I was in a larger map than I was. Kudos. :)

Great idea

Would love some more sound and continious music

I was a bit confused at first as the guards were not obviously guards at first, and there is little feedback from begging. Also the guards don't seem to care unless you actually walk into them.
Nice game though. I like the art style.

Cool concept, kind of funny to beg money from the seller and then buying the thing he sells.
Is there an ending to the game? also what does the helmets give you?
Feedback wise I agree with all the previous comments.
Nice entry and great art.
