I had a great time playing this game. The art style is lovely and the sound effects added to the overall enjoyment. The animations could be a bit faster, especially after solving a level, but it's a clever and fun experience. Congrats!
This game is a lot of fun! I'm glad to see someone else who put emphasis on sound effects in their game.
I wish the animations played a bit faster, especially once the level is solved - some of the later levels take a while which can be frustrating when you've already "solved" the puzzle.
Overall, really clever take and I love the incorporation of the theme and the humor. Nice work!
Nice idea, well executed.
I have to give my respects for the art.
Maybe disable the cancel last move button (grey it out) when you're on your first move.
It's a pleasure to make John happy and reunite with the rat <3
Really charming art and a very nice take on the theme! I do wish there were some indicators for where John was going to fire. Some of the levels took a while to complete even after you work out the solution.
I love the art style, and the idea is interesting. The time mechanic is well-pulled off. However, I really struggled with being able to switch between the characters - sometimes they wouldn't switch at all.
