I don't have anything negative to say about this. Its just a good game!

Really enjoyed getting the maus to haus with all the cheeses! A few frustrations — respawn seems slow — but great core loop!

Interesting idea! Once you got rat behaviour, it gets really fun. Feature with camera panning would be nice

Developer

Thanks, glad you liked it. I need to work on the camera a bit, so some panning is a good idea. I did consider having the camera following the cursor, but really the mouse is the player so that should drive it - however adding multiple mice would be tricky with the current set up.

Really hard because of the camera but also really polished and fun. I wish I could kill the damn rat.

Developer(+1)

Thanks, yes I need to sort out the camera :)

A mouse kill mode might be fun.

Kudos to you if you did everything in 48 hours! The core gameplay feels more polished than janky or frustrating even if the mouse is basically on autopilot.

I really enjoyed this! The concept is interesting, the levels are smooth, and the style is really well executed. Would love to see this as a full game.

Great game! It takes a bit to get used to, but when you really get going it becomes a blast!
