Great game! I like the tangled rat tails. Good rat king reference.
OMG! it looks like double king. Really liked the art bro :D
I like the style of this game its concept is great (though, are those rats considered "friends"? 😆) but i really did like the gameplay, it did crash a few times when i died but its alright considering the rest of the game looks and feels great
if you have the time consider rating our game 😊
Awesome thank you so much! I mean like, sorta? Yeah I learned alot on this project, and hopefully the next one I'll have some of those issues worked out. Thanks a ton!
Well, to be honest, the artstyle is very awesome! And loved nearly all in this game, also interesting concept. I'd like just to mention, that the controls seems to be a little bit slow(the character movement and the subtitles). Also, thought, you should add some kind of level loading, because it takes some time after death(also, it crashed one time after death). So, I just think, that you should work more on this project after gamejam, because it has great potential!!!
Great game, well done <3
Awesome thank you so much!!! Yeah, there are some things that definitely need some tweaks. Thanks for the feedback, it's truly super helpful. Thank you :)))))
An interesting concept, partially fits the theme, though you're not really "stronger" together. You're kinda just... throwing rats, watching them die and then standing on their corpses. Which was... a bit gruesome, interesting, but gruesome. The platforming sections were interesting, though not too complex and a decent amount could be pretty simple cheesed through by just stacking rats. A few specifics tho:
Thanks!! Yeah, it ended up kind of deviating a tad. We're pretty new to this, as a team, so keeping focused on our core concept is still a skill we're developing. Thanks for helping point it out though - I completely agree with you. Thanks for the feedback! it's massively helpful. A ton of those were things I wanted to work on, but due to some poor time management on my end, i talked myself out of touching up. It's helpful that someone noticed them - I'll definitely pay more attention to stuff like that next time around. Thanks for the feedback!!!
The character art is fantastic - love the gruesome, cartoony look. I think the platforming/rat throwing controls can be tightened up a little, and I'm sure you know but I think you need to be deleting things between scenes/deaths. Good work.
Thanks! We're really proud of the art was well. You're totally right, about both things. The controller was written a bit quick, I was trying some things out, and I didn't come out perfectly. And yeah, I figure that out - right before it was time to submit. It's a learning process. Thanks again!
Nice game, I loved the art style and the animations of the rat king while jumping and falling.
One thing I noticed is that the music was a little bit too low in sound, had to turn my sound up but it is nothing that is not fixable. Keep up the good work.
If you do have a chance please provide some feedback on my submissions as well :)
Thanks!! Very fair - that's something I should've been more aware of. Thanks for noticing it!!! Also, hell yeah, will do right away!!!
I absolutely love the art-style and audio, the whole game overall feels as something with actual release potential! My only critique would be the controls, they feel very floaty in general, give me more of that sweet rat movement, but it is only a minor issue, it definitely does not hinder the overall experience.
Thanks so much! We really appreciate it! Also I totally agree with you - the controls didn't turn out exactly how I wanted them to, and they still feel a bit floaty. It's a learning process, yknow? Thanks for taking the time to play + comment!!!
Learning is what we are here for!
I really really like the art and gamefeel in general. There's some freeze sometimes, but I managed to pass through almost all levels. Great game!

Thanks a ton! Yeah, I noticed that while I was working on it. I found the problem, but we unfortunately ran out of time to really be able to fix it. Thanks a ton for the feedback, we really appreciate it!!!
Great game! I don't think I've seen a concept like this one! Also, the art is great!
Thanks a ton! We really appreciate it!!!
I loved the pixel art! Also would be great more visual feedback when you die.
Thanks! I totally agree - just ran out of time, and didn't get to fully implement everything I meant to. Thanks a ton!
You need to add some screenshots for the game so people see what they're getting into. Seriously, it's fun and the art is great, you deserve more votes.
thanks for the advice! We're getting on that right now! We really appreciate the help
Game looks amazing. i really liked the art style. dialogues were enjoyable and funny. it would have been great to have some visual representation of charge and players feels a little too slow
Yeah I totally agree. The artist for this game (@artbykib) is incredibly talented. Thanks for the feedback , I really appreciate it!
