How does your game fit the theme?
Players are required to complete many "loops" of exploration and mapping due to the restricted number of moves; necessary in order to solve puzzles and navigate to the next objective. Many of the objectives also require looping back on yourself to previous areas.

I steppa' for da' cheese, only a few stepsa' though, thena' I make da' maps, I makea' da' maps!
and if after makin' da' maps there's no more cheese?? fuhgeddaboudit
Nice game, I love the atmosphere and the art. A little feedback: the game became insanely laggy when I opened the map. Also I expected the map to fill by itself, doing it on my own would take a lot of time I guess. So I just relied on my memory alone and got to the other spawn point! 😌
Thank you for the feedback! I'll look into the map being laggy. I wanted to make spawn points appear on the map when you activated them but ran out of time. Thank you for playing 😌
Cool! Unique and tricky.
Cool game, I really enjoyed it. The art was great and being able to map out your progress was a really good idea. I wanted to get to "beyond home" but didn't find enough of the stinky cheese. Loved it.
Very cool game. I would prefer it if I got my courage back when taking a step back instead of respawning. This would make it a bit easier to explore. All together, it's a very nice and cute game. :)
This is a good idea, embarrassing I didn't think of it before! I'll make sure it doesn't break anything with the puzzles first but that is a very sensible change, thank you for the feedback :)
ALWAYS BE EATING CHEESE
I really dig the art style here, and I’m impressed by the mapping mechanic! A cute and enjoyable experience, nice work!
Hello, fellow mouse! I liked the fact the next cheese is placed just enough not to starve, so when I see a collectable few steps away, I know that am not worthy yet ^^ I decided to not draw a map saying to myself that for sure I'll remember... Guess what :D Few circles and completely useless loops later, I decided to give up. But I may be back later to finish it, with proper notes taking this time.
I enjoyed it, thank you : )
Really cute and clever, I really enjoyed the loop mechanic and the exploration of the map.
Love the core mechanic, lots of replayability!
