Very interesting gameplay!

I think using rock, paper, scissors as a mechanic is very interesting. It was fun having to think of which button to press for each rat. I started to associate each number key on my keyboard with each weapon.

I did feel the game was a little too easy however, and felt very little threat from the rats once I learned that my character was invulnerable to them.

Overall, it's a really nice game and I enjoyed playing it! Nice job!

Thanks for playing and for the review! Yea, balance was very difficult for us this game since some people think the game is too hard and others think the game is way too easy. We erred on the side of being easier to give most people the chance to see the end of the game.

For the 2.0 updated version I think we will have more customized (and streamlined) controls (based on all of the great feedback we've gotten), and I think that will make the controls more accessible which should allow us to dial up the difficultly again without frustrating players.

Glad you enjoyed playing!
