i killed the big rat but suddenly i fell out of the map. please fix it in future terms. also i didn't see anything that fits the theme of balance. game was fun
I like rat smashing... Sometimes I accidentally click an upgrade when I level up mid smashing. Nice game!
Interesting! The aesthetic is really brutal. I think if you are gonna go for the graphic violence you should add some particle effects and some models of the guts that fly out like bloody mess in Fallout.
squishing rats is satisfying, the lighting issues make it a bit annoying to explore, the upgrades could be more interesting. overall i still had fun
The game was really fun — the simple job of smashing rats with a hammer worked really well! I liked the aesthetics they fit the vibe perfectly, although it was maybe a little too dark at times. The music and sound effects were great, especially the little 'ow' the rats make.
I did run into a possible bug: I think the map generation might not be properly removing the previous map, because by the 4th floor, there was a lot of strange clipping happening. After I killed who I assume was the 'Rat King' (unless you play as the Rat King?), the floor glitched out and I couldn’t progress through the trapdoor.
Also, if you could enable the Fullscreen button in the Frame options, that would help — right now, if you exit Fullscreen after launching, you can’t get it back without restarting.
Overall, though, I had a really good time with it!
