Liked the fighting style (tho I wasn't super fun of the charge attack). Super creative idea and fun overall, congrats!

Fun: I like the fighting style, the idea of fighting buttons with the mouse is good, could have added other attacks tho, and the mouse sometimes feels unresponsive, otherwise, great work

Presentation: I like the art style, simple yet good. The sound design is good as well. Did you draw yourself, or did you use assets?

Creativity: good idea, done well, fits the theme, great job 👍👍

That was a fun game! I like that the character you control is the actual mouse and the art of the mouse was very well done, especially the different stages of damage! If I were to make a suggestion, maybe it would be to make the spawns a bit more forgiving, I found that when respawning (or when an enemy would spawn) I would take damage right away as they would be extremely close. Other than that, great entry for a first jam!

I like the style and concept, but I think the charge attack either needs pierce or something. It's punishing in that it leaves you open after using it on the return.

EDIT: Also, the fantasy of taking out out the IAP things in modern mobile games is so satisfying.

The concept is cool but the controls could be refined. I like the style!

The contros are kinda funky, it was hard to get used to know how to use the charged attack and the cursor easly clipps through the walls and I find it weird how the curson doesn't exactly follow the mouse's movement, overall it's a good n' funny game, but it NEEDS polishing moistly everywhere.

Funny game! Although I find it too hard lol. There seems to be a lot of bugs around when your cursor gets off the screen you can't do anything and with the inputs in general. I like the music and the sounds though.

This is a really cool idea, I had a lot of fun playing it. I couldn't get very far though, but I'm pretty horrendous playing on mnk.

nice game! it felt kinda difficult because you make contact damage but also take damage if u touch the buttons

Cool idea, but needs a bit polishing. The mouse got out of the frame several times and feels like its not detecting me holding it. Has great potential tho

This is a nice concept, really different from everything I have played  until now. The art is nice, pretty much what the games promisses.. The message when you die... kinda weird. I liked the concept you though with the theme and that was great, for a newbiew it was pretty solid, controls were unique and different, I liked it. Nice job!

Very creative! i love the chara design as well as the idea. It would have been better with a background some visual effect and a level design(like wall in middle of the level. You usually glitch in the walls too and it force you to start over again) exept those smalls details (i know you missed time) the idea is really interesting !

Nice game, cool art as well. Controls are a bit wonky, but I managed to finish the game :).

Really nice dude I left some comments on discord but ill put them on here too just in case you miss them!

I really enjoyed it, the game was fun and i got the knack of moving the mouse while fending off the attackers felt good! As a first game idea this is super good dude good job! One piece of feedback would be to make the mousetache to snap back to the position of the mouse quicker after an attack, the idea is sound but the visuals aren't keeping a consistency But dude as a first attempt wow you should be VERY proud

hahaha, nice game. Credits got me🤣🤣😂😂

really fun concept, pretty janky overall but a good entry nonetheless

Congrats on your first jam! I really think the concept is a great one, and I appreciate that it's all mouse movement and not wasd, since that really makes it feel like youre the cursor. The movement was a little unpredictable at times, which made the game kind of hard, but I see what you were going for an I like it!

Submitted(+1)

The concept for the game is really fun and I love the narrative that the cursor has beed with the rest of the UI. Buuuut at some times the combat feels a bit clunky and getting the mouse off screen can be frustrating, but those are fixes that could be done if you decide to continue to develop the game! 

Overall: great and fun concept!
