Can't play the game screen is really small!

panicmore 2024-10-07 23:11

the game window is too small - can you please resize :)

ferelily 2024-10-07 23:13

Same as above. Game window is too small, and I can't click anything

Besides other comments - I liked the music!

The window is a bit small but hey, it kind of fits the theme :D I could play it easily when I just zoomed in the page, it was a cute game :)

Simple game, but it handles pretty well and looks nice. I can see potential in a lab rat themed physics puzzle thing like this

simple game, easy, but a bit slow

I love the game mechanics, and the character design of the rat is so goofy I love him! The scientist staring is also a creepy detail, I wish the ending wasn't as abrupt but I understand it due to the time constraints of the jam!!

Didn't have any issues with the window size. Took a few tries (kept getting the boxes stuck in annoying spots) but managed to get to the cheese. Fun idea!

I love the art and the animations! I would have liked it to be longer but I understand it's hard with the time limit, even more if it's your first game, good job!

Rat animations are superb, gameplay a bit cluncky.

I like what you're cooking here! The game flavor is on point!

The concept is good. The music and art really set the tone.

It would be nice to see more fluid character motion, and an evolution of the puzzle mechanics.

Love rats, takes a gangster on to survive labs. Nice work!

Cool implementation! within the jam game is great. but did not like that there is no nickel to indicate the player controls (that there is a run, for example, and only with the help of it can move boxes)

Very nice artwork and mood, great job for your first game :)

The art and animation is top notch. The music selection fit really well (good job crediting it). I loved the human peering in the background, it took me a minute to even notice it. Overall mood was perfect. I did get stuck several times and it felt kind of lucky to get the boxes to stack. Doing a couple of simple levels with more dialogue from this gruff jaded mouse who has seen some stuff would be been a good addition.

Nice art and animations, also the concept is matching with theme, great job anyways 10/10

Very cool sketchy art style! The game itself is a bit janky, mainly because it's really hard to control how the boxes move while you're pushing them. I'd recommend locking the rotation so the push force goes into moving the box across the floor, if you're going to use the physics engine. The game was very short, but I can tell you guys pushed really hard to get this game out of the door. Great job, hopefully you can expand on these ideas and give the game some good polish. :D
