Has everything a game jam game needs, and I can definitely see potential for more. I kind of skipped the tutorial because the rats were about to explode, so i didn't read the text. That way i didn't really understand the charmeleon mouse at first. When i understood everything after a few tries, it was pretty fun.

I was expecting wack a mole but was plesently suprised with thunder mice, i had a hard time differentiate betwen the difrent yellow mice but i had a good time
Fun game, got to wave 9 before I lost. I like the different rat behaviors, that was cool. Distinguishing between the bomb and chameleon rats was difficult, but I liked that the chameleon rats change when brought to the wrong mouse trap. The visuals and sound effects were very nice! Would love to see this expanded with even crazier movement patterns!
Really fun game! The game is simple but there is good design! For example you know in advance which rat will come as you hear the sfx. Nice game!
Suggestions(optional):
- 2 more types of rats
- make the green rats kinda recognizable so that the decision making is more interesting (as rounds will get naturally harder you will have less and less time to decide which would make this change even more interesting)
- 1/2 more abilities for the cat! The stun is already really good but why not one which closes the holes or stuff like that!
Really unique idea and well made! I had trouble figuring out what the 'tell' was for the difference between chameleon and bomb rat, but I could figure it out for the rest. Very fun idea, I made it to wave 10!
Really cool game, simple but fun. I sometimes got zapped or something by the electric cat, Idk if that was something that can be dodged or I was making a mistake.
Really good implementation of the theme "chaotic"! got really into it didn't realized that a whopping 30 minutes passed, that was really fun!
Oooh this is a nice idea it was fun to play, I also love how the art and music both fit with the game itself!
Such a cool game! Fun and chaotic! The sound effects are super cool. My hands almost feel empathy pain when the mice exploded...
I don't know why the sound of a car starting up while a mouse spawns is so funny to me, but cool game!
it’s really felt almost complete that’s really cool that you came with this, in a week!
I really liked the core gameplay. It would be fun to see it explored further
Neat idea, reminds me of the bomb om minigame from New super Mario bros
A very good explanation in the tutorial, which is rare for jams haha. The gameplay is fun!
