This was a fun, simple little game. The amount of spiders gets really crazy after a while, though, it gets almost impossible to avoid them. Either way, good work!

The sprites are super cute, the mechanics are entertaining and the audio is cool. Maybe with a timer you could add a little difficulty and make it a little more interesting. Congrats!
This was pretty fun! I beat all the lvls on my first try except for 5 it took me 3 tries. Good difficulty :)
Levels should progress automatically without a level select. Mouse is a little unwieldy, though would probably be too easy otherwise. Cute graphics.
I like the vibe, it's fun to zoom past the spiders! 😈 I feel like it took me out of the zone a bit to go back and select the next level every time, it might flow better if you string them along one by one. There's also not an obvious way to close the game once you're in the game itself or in the in-between-level menus.
It was really fun to play it’s took me some time to stop playing
Nice game, very simple but works well ! GG
Nice game, the vibe is **cheesy** and lvl 5 was fun to play a couple of times.
I agree with what @trogdor-20x6 said about levels progressing automatically. I also found that if you lose a life on one level, the UI doesn't update you back to full lives on the next but the game state does.
The graphics are really cute too.
Cute game! Simple, and effective graphics and sounds.
The gameplay was pretty fun. Took a little while to get used to the inertia when moving, but it gave a neat feel to the game. Drifting through a pack of spiders to snatch up the last cheese was a pretty good feeling too. Its easy to take menus for granted, but they were very nicely executed here. Maybe the UI could have been a bit bigger? I didn't notice the hearts until the second level. I also couldn't help but feel like the game lacked a bit of player agency and choice. It's fun to kite mobs, but what if there were pickups that altered the way the mouse moved, or the spiders chased you?
Overall, nice entry! Sorry to hear you missed the Compo deadline, but this is a solid Jam!
This is a very stressful game, which i love! Super cute and gameplay is simple and enjoyable.
Cool entry for solo, way better then some other group applications! nice and smooth gameplay, yet challenging .
super cool game about a mouse, I like it very cool
Nice entry! I liked the smooth controls, and especially bouncing off the walls. The lighting effects were cool too. Level 2 was my favorite - didn't see a single spider until I'd collected 2 pieces of cheese, then ran into the entire horde.
One small "bug" - it seems the music stops playing after a while.
Good job, I like this mouse
Hey there! The graphics are really cute (I liked the fact that I wasn't too stressed by the atmosphere :smiley: ). I would have liked a bit more music in the game, but that's ok. I couldn't get past level 4 (too many spiders!!), but I think I was a bit uncomfortable with the mouse movement, which felt like sliding across the floor (like on an ice rink): it gives a funny effect, but it's hard to master, especially as there's no dodge/sprint command. Otherwise, the game goal is very clear and the level design seemed simple and effective. A great jam game!
My first thought was "Ouch, what's with the inertia on the mouse?!". But then I understood this was actually very clever: having a splippery like physic makes you think otherwise to get past spiders, you can be creative and bouce off the walls. The feeling when you nail it is great!
As others have said, it would be cool to go straight from one level to the next, but that's just a detail. I was more disturbed by the music, which imo doesn't really fit with the spooky ambiance of the game.
But still, that's some great work. The art is great, and the game is really fun!
Great game, i like it arts so good
I had fun playing your game. Your art is nice!
Fun game, level 2 was harder than 3 in my opinion.
The sensation of the Q-shot when the mouse is functioning is truly enjoyable!
I never imagined that hunting cheese can be this stressful 🥵 This graphics with the dark environment and the red glowing spider eyes made it spooky. Bouncing from the walls can be a little bit annoying while you are running away from spiders but I guess it is intended. Cool game!
