I can't find a weapon to attack the bugs. I also can't eat the yellow pretzel I found. Help?

@TimTipGames, try talking to the old man to see what he has to say.
The contrast in feeling between the dangerous stressing outside and the calm, comforting mall is awesome. I want to shop all day!
@dydx alright, that helped. I think I talked to him only once before and thought he'd repeat only one sentence.
This time I made it to the end. I liked the change of atmosphere from inside the mall to the outside. Another thing I enjoyed (and hated) were the red bugs. Their behavior was not so straight forward that you could just stand still and beat them, which added a nice challenge.
The fighting controls where a little rough sometimes, which became most obvious for me when I was fighting the red bugs.
Found the mouse man! Obviously, this game is pretty short. Is this your first game? Second game? Third game? It would be good if you added a little bit of a description. Like the graphics, but they're a little inconsistent.
@RobotSoulsGames It's our 6th game, but the first we've done in this genre and this engine. See http://ludumdare.com/compo/author/dydx/ for our previous entries. Screenshots and description are coming soon!
nice game.. that pink jumping stuff was really deadly
Good job! I did not find the weapon, but I really liked the mechanics of getting away from enemies.
