Trying to be unbiased... ...hehee, this was fun to play! Good job!
the visuals are pretty good! the gameplay is lacking a bit but otherwise it was fun to play! nice job :3
Great game! It did crash for me though when I threw an axe while really close to an enemy in the second area.
Very retro. Reminded me of old arcade side scrolling beat 'em ups, especially with the 'continue' thing. Couldn't beat that rat king thing though! Wow!
Good work with the story and the intro. The game is very fun too, but the controls are complicated to memorize. Nice entry!
Fun brawler! I couldn't figure a strategy to win fights tough, and seems that sometimes just being close to another mouse decreases my "cheese".
The game's quite hard, but it's also well-put together. Nice job.
Impressive! Lots of fun playing it, cute mouse graphics and story.
It was a little buggy, the enemies would follow where you're stepping parallel to you so they couldn't get closer to you and you couldn't get them. Other than a few bug issues, good job!
I killed the first rat, then tried to run past the second and got stuck (we would both move at the exact same time and couldn't move up or down to get closer to each other)
Nice game! It was kind of hard meleeing the rats with the prison shanks, but then it got kind of easy once you figure out the timing. The graphics are great!
I like the overall feel and the idea, but the gameplay seems a little simple. The beginning was too easy for me, but the boss was fun, nice work! I also liked the retro feel of the game.
Cool game. The fighting is harder than I expected. The graphical style is nice and the music gives the game a nice mood. The only minor complaint is, that the camera lacked behind a bit. I would have liked to see more in front of my rat. Still a good entry!
Good graphics and nice audio. Needs a little polish here and there but it was enjoyable nonetheless. Well done!

IMPORTANT NOTE: If you want to place in the final results, you NEED votes. The easiest way to get votes is by rating other games. Judging lasts for 3 weeks following the end of Ludum Dare. For best effect, rate 20 games as soon as possible. Rating more games is encouraged.
MORE TIPS AND DETAILS AT THE BOTTOM OF THIS PAGE
TEAMS: Teams entering the Jam should pick a single representative to submit your game, or create a team specific account you can share. We currently do not support Team Voting, but sharing an account and together playing and rating games is acceptable.
NOT LOGGED IN?: If you get a message about not being logged in, even though you are, it’s because your web browser cached the non-logged in page. You can fix this by either refreshing your cache or clearing your cache. CTRL+F5 in many browsers. Chrome is a bit more work. Press F12 to enable Developer Mode, then you can right click on the refresh button and select “Empty Cache and Hard Reload”. This option is unavailable if you are not in Developer Mode.
PORTS: Ports to other platforms can be done after the deadline. That said, the sooner you finish your port, the sooner people can play your game, improving your chances of placing in the final results. For best results, provide a Web version of your game, or a Windows version with no dependencies. Also be sure to rate about 20 games to improve your visibility.
MY GAME DOESN’T SHOW UP: If you can’t find your game, it’s usually because the URL to your downloads are missing ‘http://‘. Fix your URLs (http://mysite.com/mygame.zip) and you will show up.
MY GAME CRASHES, IS UNBEATABLE, OR I MADE A TYPO: We allow you to fix crash or win condition bugs after the deadline (in a sense, like “porting” to support more players). We also allow “typo” bugs. I.e. A true that should have been a false, a word that should have been a different word, very tiny changes that you would have caught if you had more sleep. We leave this open to interpretation, but generally speaking your game should be identical to the game you submitted. No new features, just things you messed up last minute. Typos.
Fun game! I found that killing things with jumping is easier than trying to melee them. Very cute story. I wish they had longer arms.
