A new twist on the rat catcher myth. And it’s great!

Loved the theme music. Very heavy, very catchy too. It’s still ringing in my head.

The main part was sufficiently tricky and failing left me wanting to try again. Which I did. Gotta love the ending

A great game, loved the atmosphere and the lighting! Definitely fits the theme.

Loved this! Simply oozes style and atmosphere, the lighting / architecture and sound design were top notch and I loved how ominous and imposing the guards were. First playthrough I did crash at the second area but I think your update fixed that! Boy did that second level challenge me tho, I may have cheesed the ending a little heh.

Not a streamer but I figure all playthroughs are useful for dev so I included my run! It does showcase a little glitch in the player animation that occurred for me, but not gamebreaking by any means :) Adored this project though nrghh I wanna lil gothic rat army irl!

Developer

Submitted

Brilliant, love the gothic feel! Interesting controls with third-person point and click style too. Unfortunately it crashed when I collected the 5 rats, but I'll go back to try the 2nd level soon.

Developer

Thank you very much <3 <3 !!! I think it's just impossible to finish the level 02 for now :/
But if you want you can check on the game page I posted the outro !

Oh cool, I'll go and check that out, thanks!
