Do Crimes Don't Get Caught
I’ve been playing a bunch of Hitman recently, it’s one of my favourite games of all time. On one hand it’s really funny and chaotic1, but on the other its mechanics are so tight and predictable that at times it almost feels boardgamey.
So my current vibe is to create a tribute to Hitman via an extremely minimal javascript applet. That’s the goal for this one and is a normal way to want to spend my weekend.
The game rules are as follows:
- Objective: commit as many crimes as you can
- Committing crimes while the guards are watching will raise their suspicion
- Behaving lawfully while they’re watching will lower suspicion
- If you become too suspect, you’re caught! You lose!!
- The guards will take naps pretty regularly
- If the guards start to take naps such that one’s always watching, you can make some noise to shake up their schedules
- The bus to escape will arrive in one minute. Don’t miss it!
- Good luck, you filthy animal
