How does your game fit the theme?
You play a calm idle clicker game with cheese when a storm of mice attack your factory and want to steal your cheese
Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
All the code was written from scratch, all the graphics were made from scratch. The sfx were taken from free websites but were modified. Only the skybox and the background music was taken from the unity asset store.

Cool game! I liked the combination of a clicker game and a tower defence; its a really unique idea. Having to choose between increasing the cheese production and defending against the mice was enjoyable. I had a lot of fun playing it. Good job! :D
Thank you for the comment!
I wanted to reach the moon, so I invested on Cellars and just kept the game open while I watch videos :P
Well done! I wasn't sure how to position the turrets. I thought the mice would go to the cheese. I was very confused when they were running away from it. The truck driver was really patient waiting for me to sell him cheese.
I noticed that you added a mechanic so that lazy people like me (who would leave the Cellars to do the work) can't abuse the game. Well done :D
Thank you for the comment! I agree that the mice fight is confusing. We will probably add a path or something like that after the rating ends. Thanks for the feedback!
More fun than I thought at first. Once I figured out the economics, it was a clickfest, my LMB is on fire :D The only thing I would fix is making the mice/rat fight more relevant. I placed some turrets around early in the game and all but forgot about them. If turrets were more difficult to buy, or the mice were more threatening, it would've been perfect. Still a lot of fun. Cheers!
Thanks a lot for the feedback! I totally agree with you and we will keep on working to make the rat fight more relevant after the rating ends.
Combining the idle clicker genre with tower defence is an extremely cool concept and is executed decently in gameplay, though could definitely use some polish. I also found the exchange rate mechanic to be an interesting addition that develops strategy, as the player must decide if they will exchange the cheese now or risk waiting to get a better exchange rate. That along with forcing the player to decide if funds should be spent on rat defences or improving profit turns a usually stale game from the idle clicker genre into a more strategic and fun game.
The audio selection is good, as the sound effects fit the action they're tied to and the music is calm, which goes well with a clicker game. The visuals are fine and show what they represent, though they could have a more consistent art style with each other.
Still though, this is a solid game 👍
Thank your for the feedback! We will definitely keep working after the rating ends to make the gameplay experience a lot better ;)
Played this one for quite a while, good job on creating the assets from scratch, enjoyed the pick up truck mechanics.
Thank you for the comment!
Really great game! Had a great time playing it. Trying to get as much cheese before the price might go down was a pretty unique experience to say the least
That said I think the mice phase was pretty forgiving, since the turrets are quite cheap you can pretty much spawn camp the mice
Overall great job on the game!
Thanks for your comment! I agree with you and we will definitely rework the mice system after the rating ends ;)
Damn, didn't know I can buy the moon just by selling cheese. But still, a very addicting game.
Hope that you'll also rate mine :) https://itch.io/jam/brackeys-12/rate/2973690
Thanks for the kind words. Will definitely check out yours too.
The genre isn't for me, but I like some of the ideas here -- the exchange rate, and timing it with the arrival of the truck and mice
Would be nice to know what the upgrades do, and where the mice are coming from and what they're attacking exactly, because I don't think it was the cheese
Also I accidentally put a turret on top of the shop interface and it blocked that button the whole game haha
Nice submission
Thanks for the feedback!
Yes we will definitely work on fixing some of those things after the rating ends so thanks for mentioning!
Really nice idea though mice should probably be smaller and some kind of path should be visible, But once again nice idea to develop further on
Yes I absoluetly agree with you. We will add exactly those things after the rating ends.
Very Cool!
Thanks!
your game looks nice but i can not play it on my Mac, rated it based on your screenshot and other people’s comments :)
Thanks I will publish a web version after the rating ends :)
the mice were easy to defend against but fun game i clicked a lot of cheese
Thanks for your comment! We will definitely add harder waves after the rating ends.
Love clickers and love TDs! Cool combination.
Thank you!
Top ∞ cheese
This is very addictive and simple, although with some nuance. The cheese exchange rate was amazing, and it wouldn't go above 1.0 at some point, which was sad because I wanted free money, but it looks like the cheeseflation got me. The tower defense portion is extremely easy, I had 4 turrets that defeated every single wave with ease and never lost a point of health.
Very cool and fun!
Hey, thank you for your feedback! After the rate ends, we will definitely keep working on the tower defense portion to make it more balanced and harder too. PS: The exchange rate can go up to 1.5, seems like the inflation really hit you hard ;)
The upgrade panel for the individual tower that shows up at the bottom of the screen seems to go away when trying to click the tower then click upgrade, it's pretty hard to reach it and takes quite a few tries. If the game is updated after the jam that may be a place to start improving it.
Other than that I liked the simple clicking as well as the different towers and options in the shop. I found the exchange rate timer and truck really interesting and it added to the gameplay!
Thank you for your feedback and yes, that’s one of the first things we will tackle after the rating ends. Thanks for mentioning it!
this is cutest clicker game xD nice work!
Thanks for your comment!
Phenomenal job! Your talent really shines through in every part of this game. It’s a unique and exciting experience that I thoroughly enjoyed! ;D
Thanks for the comment!
cutie cutie but why dont you build a webgl version, it would've been more convenient not having to download the game:v
Thanks! I didn’t build a WebGL version because I didn’t know how to do that. Maybe I will look into it after the rate ended.
Cute idea! The tower defense part is way too easy though, I could easily afford a dozen turrets the mice couldn't get through. But I like the idea of collecting money as an idle clicker game that's then used to buy towers.
Thanks for the comment! I totally agree with you. After the rating ends I will make sure to remake the tower defense part. I sadly hadn’t enough time left to properly implement a balanced gameplay but I am working on it, thanks!
Pretty interesting take on Clicker and Tower Defense games! I would make sure next time that you've properly set the anchor points on your UI, as the UI seemed to go off the edge on my monitor and I couldn't really see what I was buying. Overall though, liked the way that you incorporated the theme into the mix of these genres. Good work!
Thank you for your comment. The menu bug seems pretty weird because it’s a pop-up (you have to click the shop button for it to properly open) but I will definitely take a look at it thanks for mentioning!
