Your itch link doesn't work

torami 2024-10-07 22:47

@theyflower holy thank you for reminding us - forgot to publish the page haha. Please have at it now:))

I really enjoyed the sound design and visuals, though I found the combat to be somewhat confusing. Should I be running past the rats or actually trying to fight each one I come across? :) Either way, great effort, and again gj on the atmosphere!

The walls are fire!

Gives a feeling of running around as a rat, has a nice little mood

I loved running into an enemy rat and headbanging to techno together until one of us died :P

really fun little game, i like the rats a lot

Cool concept and nice visuals. Maybe it is an issue with the browser version, but the movement controls don't seem to respond half the time.

mymdz 2024-10-09 10:20

It has a good atmosphere and sound. But the control is hard, as it requires accuracy from the player

sp1d3rb0y 2024-10-14 17:37

Nice visuals, and a great feeling of getting lost in the sewers which contributes to the atmosphere. Controls can be a little irresponsive sometimes, but maybe it's only the browser version. Nice work!

fun experience, sometimes the rat would have the zoomies and become really fast

cloverfall 2024-10-14 17:55

Graphics are really nice, controls felt stiff and sometimes got stuck and couldnt really move properly. Movement speed also seemed a little fast for a rat but nice game overall

xparker 2024-10-14 18:57

Is it just me or is the world randomly generated?

In any regards, quite well done. Controls seems a bit clunky on WebGL.

the sound and graphic made up a nice sewer vibe, right click in browser is painful though

leckert 2024-10-15 05:01

Love the vibe created by audio and visual effects -- even the camera angle made it feel like a dungeon crawling experience. Amassing an army of rats was addicting and satisfying, but it would be cool to get a bit more feedback during combat. Maybe adding rare rats with different stats/abilities could help incentivize exploration more too!

Nice work. The rats look very nice! Survival in the sewers sets up mood pretty well. I feel like your run can be ruined in a moment when a bigger group or several groups come to you right away, but I guess that's part of the game. Nice work :)

greenpig 2024-10-15 15:44

@xparker yes it is, we spent like a whole day making the algorithm for it. I feel like you are the only person who realized this :D

jack-sims 2024-10-15 22:24

goof mode is a clutch addition

torami 2024-10-16 00:38

@renier weird, we haven't even encountered that bug but thank you for pointing it out were definitely gonna have a look at it as we are refactoring the whole thing now haha.

torami 2024-10-16 00:39

@jack-sims thank you thank you, I made the first piece of music (without the talking) and then we agreed that we were gonna go for a more unsettling mood but we still wanted to use it so we settled on this, glad you liked it:))

vknauss 2024-10-16 01:38

I like the look and mood a lot, is there an objective I'm supposed to find in the tunnels?

cam-moore 2024-10-16 15:13

I a rat king! Actually I died XD

torami 2024-10-16 15:31

@vknauss not really for now, the objetive is to get as big of a rat gang as you can haha

volkolak 2024-10-17 21:03

Cool stuff! also with a fun mode as an extra)

kja8a8 2024-10-25 01:54

Rat Dead Redemption sounds incredible! The sewer world, battling rival rat gangs, and simple controls make it super fun and easy to jump into. The auto-fighting feature is a great touch, and the strategic rat team-building adds depth. It's clear that a lot of passion went into this game!

A suggestion: add more about how the "reputation" affects gameplay to make players even more excited about the strategy.

Nice game! Good job!
