I Love the graphics its a simple game with great music and a good short story for four day this is impressive
Thanks!
Really fun concept! I had a great time with the intro and basic gameplay, and really enjoyed the visuals. The enemies encounters seemed to provide no gameplay benefit, so as it stands that's my biggest complaint, though I understand that they were planned to have more functionality.
Would love to see more from this game!
Thanks!!
Thanks for submitting this to the stream! The game was very short but sweet. I really like the paintings to explain the story and the gameplay was decently fun.
Good job!
Thank you!
Pretty fun game, crazy music choice lol. I wish there were some fun sound fx in there. The health bar is a bit misleading with how quickly you'll be killed by the obstacles. It'd be fun if the bigger you are, the quicker you kill the guards or something like that.
Thanks! There's a lot of visual and sound feedback we could've added but didn't find time T_T
Actually there is something similar: The bigger you are, the less keys you have to press. If you're small you have to press more keys. But still, this needs to be improved on xd
Really cute! fun but simple concept. The music also really really fit the game well!
Thanks!
Super cute runner game!! Enjoyed the lore and story around it!! Played at https://twitch.tv/hedge_in <3 vod Day 3 @ 2:34:00
Thank you!
A very cute runner game! No real critiques from me, seemed overall fairly polished! Nice work!
Thank you!
I think that's a good runner with a very highly polished map and design. I'm just curious about the fighting system, it was unclear when i won or lost. Maybe focus more the runner aspect or polish a bit more the fight as well i don't know. Overall it's a very cool game !
Thanks! Yeah, fighting is lacking a lot of feedback, sadly... It will be polished after the jam tho xD
Great ! i'll play again after the jam then !!
A simple, endless running with a nice style and a goofy theme. Nice submission!
Thank you!
Very fun! While a bit short, I think the other aspects really sell it well :)
Cannot wait for more!
Cute animated mouse game! Great choice in music BTW. We also use Magic Escape Room as the primary music on our game so that's bonus points from us. Great job! Praise Cheddar!
Glad you liked it! Praise Cheddar \o/
What I liked
This game's mood and music put a big dumb smile on my face. I was bopping to the music. I liked the little cutscene at the start and it fit into the theme relatively well with the player character shrinking. I also loved the animations and the king getting bonked is just him being squashed down like that.
What I didn't like
The controls felt a bit float when it came to the jumps, I feel with this kind of game you want the jump to either be a short or big jump, and give the player the option; unlike a plat former there's no point in giving the player a incredibly tiny jump, which I could do by tapping space.
Potential Improvements
I'm not entirely sure what to suggest for improvements here as the game is overall pretty solid. I feel any additional particle effects or shaders might take away from the feel of the assets and animations.
Overall Thoughts
One of the more solid entries out there, with a good grasp on the theme and a rats off the walls attitude. By the end of it. I'm the biggest rat, who makes all of the rules; and this game certainly rules :3
Thank you so much! Glad it put a smile on your face :D
Bonk bonk! Such a funny and cute game. I enjoyed it a lot!
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks to the dev who came to my stream with this! It's very fun, but I couldn't coordinate the directed inputs very well with the controls. I also felt like i didn't have a lot of time to make them, and died rather quickly when i messed up. I feel like the jumping could stand to be a bit snappier as well. Overall though, great job!
Thanks for the feedback!
Nobody will stop me FROM RECEIVING THE CHEESE!!!Good Game
That's right! Get all the cheese!
Simple and fun, the art has a lot of character, good job!
Thanks!
I really love the graphics of this game, also the gameplay was quite fun, cool game, great job!!
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it.
A fun runner with lots of style. The minigame combined with losing size created a nice sense of tension that can be a bit easy to loose in this style of game. Really enjoyed this!
Thank you!
Love the look and colors. Very nice presentation.
Thank you :)
Bonked 9 guards and ate 21 cheese, cute game with some standout visuals! I don't really play 3 lane running games but this didn't overstay its welcome, and the fat rat helped lmao. If you have the time we'd also appreciate if you took a looksy at our game < 3
Thanks!
