Ranked from 29 ratings. Score is adjusted from raw score by the median number of ratings per game in the jam.

How does the game fit the theme?
Even thoughall mice look the same, clicking on the strange yet similar looking mice causes random effects to take place on the screen. Even though it seems as though nothing can go wrong, there's always a chance it will.

What code and assets did you not make from scratch during the jam (if any)?

Really well done for your first game jam! I'm impressed with how many different effects you managed to cram in and I want to keep playing just to see more! Some people have already mentioned but it seems there is a mismatch between the expected screen size and the window size assigned in itch! Make sure to line up the resolution you set in the project settings in godot with the play window size you set in the itch settings for your project, then there should be a fullscreen button included as well!

A nice intense little game! I think the game may have some scaling issues though since i could see some cut off text at the top, you can try adding a fullscreen button to fix this next time :D Anyways good job on the game!

Like the music and the main mechanic is fun! Maybe more player feedback (count of how many mice you've caught/maybe a goal amount) would be nice, but for a first game jam this is a really good effort :)

Cool little mousecatching game!

I think adding a fullscreen option's all you need really, game's pretty fun otherwise :D

Super fun and absolutely awesome! I love this genre, and the visuals are so creative!

Simple but fun! Unfortunately I had issues with the resolution but in some ways it made it more challenging. Good job!

Fun crazy game.

I would try to leave a bit more spacing around the buttons & allow the game to be played in fullscreen, would definitely match the gameplay I think

Good and short game! My high score 30 mice)

Cute little clicker game! It's honestly pretty hard I got to about 29 mice before losing in the end. I like the sound effects and the paw hand you use to catch the guys.

If you were to add anything maybe just add more variation to the gameplay loop if possible but it's not necessary for a game jam. The color change when you lost a piece of is quite interesting, but I think you could have added more "flavor" or emotion to it. Still a nice little game overall

Nice, short game! It's difficult and I enjoy it! Good work! ;)

Very short game and fun! I think it should’ve been a fullscreen game because I am pressing of the window accidently!
The game art and theme looks good.

Short yet very fun game! Hope you get more ratings!!

I caught a lot of mice, but it did also seem  that if my mouse was too near the edge I could not catch mice any more and they often ran to the edge for cover.

Fun game!

I really liked the screen effect when I made a mistake!

While it was difficult to tell the correct and wrong mice apart, it was still fun to claw away and catch them! I like the different changes in visuals when you get a wrong one to punish you and make it harder. Fun game!
