So many delightfully-awful puns.
The game is fun, too! Great stuff.
Very nice. Also great art style and animations (except for the villain, it could use some more I'd say).
That's really nice and adorable :) I love the art style alot :)
Very addictive!! It's amazing to have such polished graphic in just 48 hrs.
Excellent animation and art style, and a cute idea for villain. :)
Awesome game, really fun to play and nicely themed and styled as well. Good job!
This game ticks all the boxes, it's extremely polished. And you included the goat as well, nice one with that. I kept on smirking at the horrific jokes Robin kept on making.
I loved it and I started to laugh when I pulled the huge goat out of man's pocket. Really cute game! Let me know if this game will be somewhere online with highscores implemented ;)
really, really good! super fun to play & great concept. nicely done :)
Thankyou everybody for the comments, they mean a lot!
Blodyavenger, sure will do! Follow us on twitter for any update :D
Good game! Good puns! Vacuuming money is always a win! Cool you could get to work sfxr with flash, we had difficulties with that.
Nice graphics! The gameplay was alright, the puns made the game much more enjoyable though, good job! Best heist #321
i really love how consumerist goods are detrimental to your health
very fun, I just wish people would react to have their money getting sucked out of their pockets , haha.
The graphics are so clean, this is really awesome. And i loved the simple gameplay mechanic
Haha! This game could have been played on an old arcade machine, I love it! Well done!
exactly the kind of small and well-rounded games you want to see in a ludum dare. thanks a lot :)
Great graphics! The music went really well with the silly (and effective!) theme :D Simple and fun gameplay! Awesome job!
lovely!!! I can't get enough of it, very addictive. Top marks for graphics and humor
Awesome. I like vacuuming money from people. I wish that was my job. Wish there was music also. Music and vacuuming money from people.
Looks great, plays great, and feels finished. Wooo...$145!
Why does the coffee hurt me? I like drinking coffee lol
it's a nice game
Slick presentation, great sense of humor and feedback. Nothing not to like here. Nice one.
I really like the theme of playing a bankster :) Too bad it's too repetitive, but for a 26h entry even with 2 dev, it's good word !
This was a cute little game. Well polished, with nice graphics and sounds, and no noticeable bugs. I liked it a lot.
It would be cool if there was some sort of progression - maybe updates or some way to recover life, etc.
really cute style--reminds me of scribblenauts. game is simple and complete.
Hehe. I managed to get to $53 after a couple of tries. It was a little bit hard to avoid the things people throw at you, and without more health you have to be real careful.
Either way, the game looks awesome and the background music and sound effects are a nice addition. The gameplay is simple but feels quite polished and most importantly, it is fun.
I really like the idea. I also quite appreciate the humor, both the inherent humor of the idea itself, but also in the speech bubbles from the character and such. Great job!
great work. I liked everything about it. Fun and simple. Great graphics and animations.
Easy to learn, hard to master. Really good execution of the theme with a fun and enticing presentation!
It was fun to rob those people of their cash, but I feel like you should also be trying to nab those wallets for bonus monies, but instead they just hurt you which feels wrong. I can understand the suitcases, phones, and lattes but the wallets? I wanna rob them blind haha
Great work!
@Cake&Code its not a wallet! Its a book haha.
Thankyou for your kind words :)
A goat just flew up at me while I was sucking people's money away from them from atop a bank using a vacuum cleaner. Awesome.
Nice graphics and goats! Gameplay is smooth and fun. Maybe the learning curve is too flat. But in any case it's a good game! Congratulations!
I like the look you've got and you've nailed the theme
Haha, nice take. I especially liked style and the background music.

IMPORTANT NOTE: If you want to place in the final results, you NEED votes. The easiest way to get votes is by rating other games. Judging lasts for 3 weeks following the end of Ludum Dare. For best effect, rate 20 games as soon as possible. Rating more games is encouraged.
MORE TIPS AND DETAILS AT THE BOTTOM OF THIS PAGE
REMEMBER: The “Theme” category is only for the main theme (You are the Villain). Don’t penalize for not using Goats.
TEAMS: Teams entering the Jam should pick a single representative to submit your game, or create a team specific account you can share. We currently do not support Team Voting, but sharing an account and together playing and rating games is acceptable.
NOT LOGGED IN?: If you get a message about not being logged in, even though you are, it’s because your web browser cached the non-logged in page. You can fix this by either refreshing your cache or clearing your cache. CTRL+F5 in many browsers. Chrome is a bit more work. Press F12 to enable Developer Mode, then you can right click on the refresh button and select “Empty Cache and Hard Reload”. This option is unavailable if you are not in Developer Mode.
We’ve identified the problem, and should have the page caching bugs fixed for next Ludum Dare.
PORTS: Ports to other platforms can be done after the deadline. That said, the sooner you finish your port, the sooner people can play your game, improving your chances of placing in the final results. For best results, provide a Web version of your game, or a Windows version with no dependencies. Also be sure to rate about 20 games to improve your visibility.
MY GAME DOESN’T SHOW UP: If you can’t find your game, it’s usually because the URL to your downloads are missing ‘http://‘. Fix your URLs (http://mysite.com/mygame.zip) and you will show up.
MY GAME CRASHES, IS UNBEATABLE, OR I MADE A TYPO: We allow you to fix crash or win condition bugs after the deadline (in a sense, like “porting” to support more players). We also allow “typo” bugs. I.e. A true that should have been a false, a word that should have been a different word, very tiny changes that you would have caught if you had more sleep. We leave this open to interpretation, but generally speaking your game should be identical to the game you submitted. No new features, just things you messed up last minute. Typos.
this game is awesome, the are the audio, its all just nice and clean and it plays like a dream :D
