Interesting game! Love how you put together the assets around the theme! To be frank I felt a bit lost in the beginning, but this one reminds me of 'Overcooked' and I always get lost playing that game, haha! 

Great job!✨😊

Really fun game, played it quite a few times. Did find it can be hard to select the thing I want to at times so repairing with the hammer would be quite difficult at times. The cheese also got stuck on the conveyor belt a bit however the gameplay experience was very fun and this game has a lot of potential to be even better than it already is. Good Job!

Look fun and have potential but the game is not reaching it yet

Look fun and have potential to get busy with this. But my station burning and i dont know what to do

Really solid idea with the rat and cheese factory. The art and music worked well and it all felt very polished for a first jam. I did find the controls a bit fiddly though.. selecting the rats or stations didnt always feel right. Once I got used to it though it was fun managing the chaos. Nice work

Ha, this is a fun concept. At some point in the game I was wondering why the rats don’t just move the cheese themselves. Would me much quicker. You did a very good job on your first game jam. The only nitpick I have is that sometimes I would want to click on a rat but end up clicking the slot/controller instead or vice versa.

Very impressive for your first game! It’s my first jam as well. I really liked playing this, but something seemed a little unpredictable with moving the mice around. Sometimes when I click to select, another mouse would run over and start chasing the other LOL. Sometimes the camera would zoom in slightly. Keep it up, you’re doing great!

Nice concept but the controls were a little weird. Felt like the mice were not following what I clicked very well and would get stuck on each other.

Love the concept, reminded me of Overcooked both in mechanics and visually!

Not sure if it's something that's been reported before, but I felt like sometimes my mouse input wouldn't register fully. Like, it would take a couple of clicks to get my mice moving from one spot to the other.

Other than that, I thought this was really cute and well executed, good job!

What an interesting concept! I enjoyed managing the rats but sometimes they get stuck. Overall, great aesthetics and nice music.

Managing the rats were pretty stressful, but in a fun way, and I don’t know what the Red Rat did, but damn did it break its machine a lot. Really like the game. Sometimes the Rat didn’t accepted the order I gave them. Seems I missed the Hitbox by a fraction of a pixel.

The concept of managing a cheese-producing mouse factory is unique. The art and music create a delightful atmosphere. I did find selecting tasks a bit tricky at times, but overall, it's a charming and fun experience. Great job on your first jam!

Great idea and execution. I just felt that getting a hang of the controls was a bit difficult. Other than that well executed! Good job:)

This game was super neat! Love the idea and the gameplay seems well thought out. Good job!

Submitted

Cool idea and great implementation! My only complaint is that I would have liked keyboard controls for the camera movement so I could focus on the mice with my mouse

Submitted

Great job making a game for the jam! I did have the mice get a little stuck on each other, but I really like the idea of them moving the conveyor belts and the belt's controls breaking. I think it would add to the user experience if there was a click or sound effect and clicking and assigning mice to a station.

Submitted

Fun little idea! I liked how the game presented itself visually. I did find the controls a little rough, especially with them getting stuck on each other a little bit, but also just my intuitiveness for how I wanted to control things like the camera and issuing orders, but maybe that's just me coming from more of an RTS and RTS style games background xD Either way, good job! ^^

Submitted

Fun concept, the rat management is well done. A good submission, good job!

Fun, frantic concept with a great Tiny World spin! Loved the vibe and mouse chaos. Really impressive work for a first jam!

A fun game  with great graphics.
