Wow, I really like the game. The graphics reminded me of a game I playes years ago, called TechnoMage.
The movement of the rats were clear and I enjoyed how they could run beneath the tables and chairs.
Going back downstairs was a little bit hard, but I made it to leave the house.
Good Job and fitted the theme well :)
Thank you for your feedback, we are glad that you enjoyed playing it :)
Nice concept for the game, I liked the idea of growing the horde and eventually overrunning some old medieval town somewhere bringing the black death!
Unfortunately I got stuck after going upstairs having obtained only 77/100 necessary to open any further doors. This may have been me being a little stupid, but I couldn't progress any further than this no matter how much I looked around the two levels...
The audio did sit a little funny with me, and the level design could have been refined a little to really ramp up the feeling of a growing horde in order to keep up a good momentum as we grew.
With some refinement and expansion this could certainly be a fun little title!
Also: Love the thumbnail art; so hats off to whoever made that!
Great game! Liked it alot.
Slamming through doors is great, just seeing the growth of the rat horde is great, I just wish there was more. This feels like just a taste of what this game can be.
Not exactly what I thought the game would be, since there's not really much conflict it's just a relatively lenient time trial to get the rats out of the house. But it's an interesting concept, and the reactions of the furniture and other items throughout the map were interesting. Otherwise though it was just room to room eat everything repeat. Adding some more variation would definitely help mix it up. The "poisoned" food could've and partially does, but it's so easy to tell what is and what isn't poisoned and there's never a situation where you need to be near both so it's not really a danger.
Plus there's not much information given to you about the specific size of your group without specifically looking at a door to see the count. So adding that information somewhere would be very helpful. As well as making the timer clearer as a timer.
As well the voice over was incredibly creepy, and a bit weird and off.. key I guess? (I don't know audio much so :/) So it was kind of annoying, I feel like it needs some tweaking.
I didn't like the voices in sound design but the game is cool. Nice idea!
I don't personally like the commentary but otherwise your game is very polished. Visuals are stunning for a jam game and the idea of rat swarm is fun :). Great job.
I did not understand the dialogue, but it sounded really cool and rat-like. I noticed that you can soft-lock the game(might be wrong) by eating the poisoned food in the open on floor 2, which then bars you from opening the doors that require 100 rat power.
The gameplay was really nice, however, I really loved running around the house and eating food. The controls did sometimes get a bit weird, like going from floor 2 to floor 1 needed a bit of precision, but overall, a really nice game, I love it.
Le jeu est vraiment sympa, j'aime beaucoup la mécanique, cela donne envie d'en voir plus. Les voix sont cools, elles rajoutent un petit côté effrayant. J’aime beaucoup la 3D, une peu de jeu de lumière et quelques petites choses pour habiller le sol aurait été sympa. Il me semble que les planches au sol sont trop "étirées", cela fait étrange c'est dommage :(
GG à vous ! je le dis à nouveau mais j'aime beaucoup l'idée :)
Ha Ha this game is great. I didn't understand the dialogue but I really enjoyed listening to it anyway! It adds alot of character. The rats sound so satisfied and I really enjoy how they move. It was a bit buggy trying to get down the stairs. I was not sure at first what I was aiming to do besides devour everything in sight but I figured it out in the second run through. Nice!
