The tomatoes should be shooting the rat once you place them down in the right lane! We are working to add a little tooltip or something similar to help explain what each thing does though, so hopefully that will help with clarity in the future. Thanks for playing!

They definitely do get killed by tomatoes, but you might be experiencing a very subtle bug i found and fixed after the jam went live. The bug is that mice don't "die" until after they can play the death animation, which is getting stalled by other animations. so you'll see them die inbetween a) attacking or b) getting hit in the game jam version. I fixed it already for post jam though, as surprisingly it wasn't impacting too much based on comments. Thanks for playing! :)
