Give me back my crystals! I have to get back home!

Homeward Hues is a short 2D top-down stealth game created for the Weekly Game Jam (week 208). This version of the game is playable in your browser!

You are lost and far from home, but the RGB crystals you could use to make a rainbow portal back to home have been taken from you! Sneak into the base where your crystals have been taken, but beware the security devices that continuously scan for intruders!

The game has checkpoints for each area, so don't despair if you get detected! The controls are taught at the beginning, but here they are, for reference:

WASD: Move (8-directional)
J/K: Run

I've also decided to add more to the game that differs from the original submission:

Removed the "exit game" option from the title screen (as an HTML5 game doesn't need that).
Added live counting of alerts.
Added a timer (for the speedrunners out there! 😉)
Added a summary of the player's progress on the win screen.
