Mouse controls? Mouse controls??? I get it. eheheheheheh.

Anyway. Very cool idea, explored and developed with creativity and skill. I really appreciate being able to retry a level after getting a really high par on my first try--satisfies the score chaser in me.

Something I want to highlight in your art direction is the touch of colour-bleed between tiles. That adds a lovely hand-drawn charm to the work.

Very occasionally the sightline would assure me that my cheese would ping off of a corner, only to sail right past it and leave mice wanting for cheese. Could be a skill issue on my part.

A difficult, but generous game. I really like this.

I haven’t even thought about the mouse control joke! Nice one!

Glad you enojoyed the levels and even more for the art, still trying to find my footing with not drawing 8x8 sprites!

Slightline is sadly a bit iffy due to how foating point calculations work, and we haven’t found a good countermeasure in time for it.

Great Game! I liked the pixel art :)

Developer

Thank you! Glad to hear the art was to your liking, still a beginner with “higher” res art!

Very fun game, got a score of 43 I believe. The mechanics that complicate the basic premise were all very well done!

Developer

Nice score! Lovely to hear you enjoyed our additions and twists!

I liked the graphics, and the gameplay was fun. I did eventually end up mostly guessing where to throw the cheese next on a lot of the later levels.

Developer

The later ones are quite more complicated, I was playing “bad cop” with some of the level design. Since we had a par system and not a fix “x shots per level” lose condition I felt like we could to some tricks and still allow players to finish without the stress of having to find our exact setups

My sum of fewest shots in each level was 52 shots during my second run. Basically I reached pars (did better once) during the first half and didn't do much worse during the further ones (obviously restarted each level one million times though').

The game is awesome, I enjoyed it a ton, thanks for sharing!

Developer(+1)

Lovely to hear you enjoyed and pushed yourself with the retry, hope they were worth it! Thank you for the kind words!

my mom says this is baller just like angry birds,, cool game very nice style, nice integration of mechanics+ rly liked seeing ur progress in the discord:)

Developer

Funnily enough we were contemplating the idea of lauching cheese from a slingshot, so not a far fetched thought on her part! Thanks for the kind words, and the Discord talks were super fun, I always enjoy the jam yaps in communities!

Unsurprisingly a banger by Achie & Fletch. Very polished and addictive gameplay with some banging graphics!

Developer

Fletch carried the whole project! Hope you had a lot of fun, and thanks for the praise!

Fun game with quite a bit of content (Couldn't make it past one of the screenshot levels though...)

Only problem I had was some flickering on the level clear screens.

Developer(+1)

Bummed to hear the flickering, will have to look into that as we didn’t experience that on the local build, nor did I through my playthrough … might be a good feedback part for the engine developer! Sorry for the thougher levels, but I can assure you, all of them can be done!

Really fun game! Love how it gets harder and harder. Fun to try to get under par, but also sometimes it's like ... how on earth??

Developer(+1)

I think for some levels (like the first) the par is the minimum possible! But also some of the levels are very difficult LOL

Developer(+1)

Thank you so much for playing! I assure you every level is beatable, and once you get how, it will be the best feeling ever!

What can I say .. this is the GOAT cheese XD .. Stellar job all round folks ..
