Super fun game, simple and easy to understand but the stealth and playing dead mechanics add a nice bit of depth to it.  Big fan of some of the QoL features included like being able to see your character through walls and the greyscale effect to let you know when you're hidden in a bush.

Love this submission please continue to develop it! I want more silly games around.

Really sweet game. The models are cute. I don't trust the mole tho.... Is he really keeping my cookies safe? Good job!

Super cute game with a straightforward and well executed take on the theme. The art is amazing and the concept reminds me of Over the Hedge film xd

Great work on this! What a fun little stealth game :)

I love the little opossum model so much! The little running animation, it's little walk, the majestic leaping onto tables to steal cookies! The play dead feature killed me, I love the little twitching legs and the fact that it's a useful ability in this game

A cute game with good visuals, especially the UI/Menus. The Opossum is charming and I like how you made "play dead" into a useful gameplay mechanic.

 I think I ran into a bug though where the people would ignore me and shout "ew! it is dead!" when I ran past, snatching all their cookies without them trying to stop me.

How does this game only have 16 rating so far?? It looks absolutely amazing! Not only the game itself, but the whole presentation including the cover art, itch page, the How to Play.. Very polished! Seriously, I'm in love with that artstyle and the character models. Especially the jump and dead animation.. awww!

I just gotta point out how wonderful your game's page itself looks like. I really dig it when people make the effort and add all the extra bells and whistles. I know it has little to do with the game ( brilliant Possum art obviously ) but it just elevates the experience.

Loved the art style! The models are super cute!

I got a good laugh the first time I hit E and the opossum played dead.
Only thing I’d suggest for is a way to pause the game to adjust the camera settings.

Developer

Thank you!
You can pause the game and do just that by pressing P... Unless the pause broke and we didn't notice lol 

Submitted(+1)

Ah, right!
It would be great to include that in the 'how to play' section along with the other keys. I checked there but didn’t see any pause option, so I figured it wasn’t possible.

The game feels a bit janky on browser, but other than that, nice game!

Submitted(+2)

Super fun game!! I got like 88 cookies in the end I think that's a good decent amount. 

I def recommend downloading the game cause in browser it lags a bit and the camera rotation is very fast there even when changed in the settings. 

I had fun playing this game hiding from the guys and taking the cookies, alto next time I be loving some more stuff to do than just jump on tables to get cookies. But still amazed what you done in a week time. I def see this becoming a full story game with more maps.

This game looks fantastic. I love the idea of being able to play dead. Unfortunately my laptop can't play it. : (

Developer(+1)

We've been getting some reports of the game not being playable on some browsers and we're currently trying to figure out why :(
Going to upload a windows build soon too just in case 

Developer

New web build has been uploaded and seems to be working now :D

Really Fun game, the artwork is incredible, the models are great, playing dead is really funny when you just die on somebodies table and they dont care. I love being an opossum and taking people's cookies, they deserve it.

Also the camera was really weird but it doesnt change much about the game

My favorite game in the jam so far!
