Finally got there, and now that I could actually use a mouse (to control the mouse ha) it’s fun! I kind of like the way it forces you to choose between movement, turning, and shooting. I always appreciate trackpad-eligible controls and other cross platform ways to play, I suppose you could map to arrow keys for right/left/press both to move forward and it could be about equivalent, but all in fun entry.
I am in love with your shooting mechanics and aesthetics, good job!
Awesome and impressive!
You know I got that cheddar! Love the unique controls and I had a really fun time playing this on stream. Thanks for sharing your work.
Interesting game here. This game is giving me a Hotline Miami vibes, leaving behind all of the corpses. It felt weird to me that I had to stop moving to turn, but yet I can easily spin the gun around and shoot in all directions.
lol thanks (also the mouse probably just forgot leg day)
Unique gameplay with just the mouse! Story and location are quite funny too. Nice job
This was fun! The idea of controlling the mouse only with your mouse was a really cool concept. Although I Got promised cheese in the title and didn't see anything at the end :(
Nice game!
thank you :D (also the cheese comes next round hopefully [: )
Uh, wow. Incredible game. Very good!
thanks :)
lol mousception
I love the art style, and the story is so great!
I didn't read that you needed a mouse and spent ages trying to figure it out on my trackpad, but once I sorted that out it was all fine! Maybe if you continued working on this you could add some control customisation or a set of trackpad-friendly controls too
def should add trackpad support next round
Pretty cool. Feels a lot like endoparasitic. I like the "mouse-only" controls (not sure if thats intended or not), but the mouse should be faster. Also wheres the cheese? think there should be more cheese lying around or something, since its supposed to be a cheese museum.
Brilliant top-down zombie shooter. The ending text got me lol Awesome job, man!
thank you :D
This is brilliant! I love that the character is a mouse that can control the arm. It's so satisfying to shoot the gun
thank you :D
Great short and to the point introduction of the story, preparing for the comical elements that will follow (as if the name was not a give-away :D )
I especially appreciated the starting area being a corridor I had to get familiar with the movement before I could move. While I do understand people's slight frustration with the movement system, after playing through it all I have to say, I now view it as an advantage for your translation between species communication: as a human I can move the human arm with great precision, yet cannot easily walk a mile on a mouse's shoes. That said, I agree with comments about the speed, perhaps having an acceleration added, that picks up speed would allow greater movement through the long corridors. Needless to say, I tried moving with the gun's recoil (beautifully animated and coded by the way, with SFX for shots, and reloading etc.) to some success.
PS: Big face statue is the best.
lol. thanks for all the feedback too :D
The text when the mouse got the arm xD Loved the funny texts all along, great atmosphere (just missing music, but that's me and my sound design love) Well done !
lol thanks :D
Awesome game. I love how comically large and powerful the gun feels when it's juxtaposed against the mouse. I also love the use of the mouse to move a mouse, though perhaps accessibility options could have been nice for people who use trackpad.
thank you :) (also finally someone realised that the mouse is controlled by your mouse lol)
The game is good, and I believe you are inspired by Miziziziz's Endoparasitic. The way the gory art style when humans are dying and the way the controls feel (if it is better) feels quite similar. I like the level, but I wish you can make the barriers to be a bit more precise. For example, from your second and third examples, those small boxes are one giant wall, but it feels like the player can squeeze through that gap. But the realization hits and apparently it isn't.
I like the monochrome aesthetics, but the sudden red blood gives it away. Maybe you can choose a different color that isn't red, but close to it. Then, it will look a lot better. Overall, good submission. Looking forward on the future.
thanks :D also it was inspired by endoparasitic
I have to say, the concept is VERY EPIC! I love the atmosphere and the game is honestly kinda fun :D
However, there are a few things that could be improved upon:
Overall, I think this game has a lot of potential! But please fix the tutorial lol. Keep up the good work! :)
lol thanks for playing :D and will be sure to fix that (if i get to the next round that is ;) )
Yeah the controls got in the way for me, I couldn’t play on my laptop [no middle mouse button to press] (I’ll try again later once I boot up my pc for the other non web entries review). But from what I recall seeing on discord, definitely seems like a fun and very unique concept.
thanks, but the game is a web game?
I realize, I mean that on my laptop I have no middle mouse so I can’t move only pan :) once I’m at my PC, I’ll have a mouse then so I can. Will review then :D
oh ok :)
Controls were hard to get the hang of, but it's cool that you can move by firing the gun.
This is definitely an entry that I'd like to see more of.
thank you :D
