I thoroughly enjoyed the puzzle aspect of the game, and navigating the game as a wedge of cheese was a novel and enjoyable experience. The atmosphere really made me feel like I was in danger of being consumed by rats at any time, great job! It is awkward interacting with the chest at the start, but that may just be the nature of being a piece of cheese. I am a little confused about the ordering of unlocking the rooms, it seemed like I was able to access the top level room before the second level, and the second level references the third level's hint. Other than that, this game is a very interesting experience and I was excited to uncover more of the story between doctor rats and sentient cheeses.

Thank you so much for the comment and compliments! I did purposely make the top level the second level unlocked but I realize this ordering may not be as intuitive for others. The last unlocked level referencing the top level’s hint was also intentional but I can see how that might’ve been confusing. I’ll definitely be making some adjustments post-jam based on everyone’s feedback! Thank you!
