Really cool game, you had some really smart level design like the bit where you force the player to run through gas to teach them how gas accelerates the radiation bar. I struggled a bit with the mouse controls at times as the mouse seemed to not properly follow the cursor. Also, gotta say I love the cheese cursor lol

If you could give me a rating/feedback on my game it would be much appreciated! :)

Pretty cool game. Love the art. Not sure if it was by design or not, but the mouse didn't feel very nice to control. The extra control options on the later levels helped, but it was still fairly difficult. I still enjoyed it though, good job!

A really nice little puzzle game - well done! I loved the idea of having to guide a mouse through a maze, and the fact that it controlled awkwardly kind of helped with that idea - it didn't feel like I was controlling the mouse, but instead was guiding it indirectly, which was a nice second-person type of perspective. Some of the levels were too difficult though, I think, since I feel like had to play the level perfectly to get through on time, so fixing that would be nice. The graphics were nice and simple, and I liked the effects too. It had a nice visual style, which is always good to see. Overall, I'd say it was a really nice game, with plenty of challenge - great work!

A little difficult. The rats are cute, and I think they represent this game well.

Very nice game. The art is looking mighty fine. But I had a problem once I started playing. I didn't know how to start. But then I found out. And I have to say it was quite enjoyable.
