Ludum Dare #57compo
Cult of the Whisker
You are a mouse.
While out for a peaceful stroll in the forest, you stumble upon a strange, hidden bunker. As you approach, you're ambushed by... satanist mice.
Now you're trapped. Your only hope is to solve puzzles, stay out of sight, and find a way to escape this dark, eerie place.
PLEASE READ THE TUTORIAL!
- Move: WASD
- Interact: E
- Restart: R
⚠️ Keep an eye on your flashlight meter — if it hits 0, the light goes out.
💡 Refill your flashlight by finding oil bottles hidden throughout the bunker.
👁️ And whatever you do... beware of the satanists.

It's a pretty creepy atmosphere, as befits the game. Level design is a bit annoying, especially when you get into a dead end behind your head and you have to break through a crowd of Satanists who were following you.

Great atmosphere, the SFX help a lot. Having a bunch of cultists gang up on you is pretty scary. I'd love to see one or two more levels :D

Yey, I alive!

Good, challenging game. Even though its simple, it delivers good atmosphere and gameplay. I would maybe add some traps to slow down the enemies some time.

Atmospheric game, I liked the animations of the mice. Almost died due to lack of fuel

I really like that you made a small cutscene at the very beginning. Very few games implement something like this, it's cool! In the game itself, it seemed that there were too many enemies, but this did not prevent me from completing the game, great job :sunglasses:

The gameplay was good, and the overall atmosphere!

The characters are really well drawn.
The heartbeat adds to the atmosphere — you could also add cultist whispering like in Resident Evil 4, when they’re breathing down your neck.
It would also be interesting to see additional wounds on the character as their health decreases.
And it might be cool to have different types of cultists — with maces, knives, etc. It could be the same animation, just different sprites

Really cool visuals and sound design — some parts were even a bit creepy in the best way! I’d love to see more levels, the atmosphere is awesome and I definitely want more. Great job!

I really like the graphics on this one. It's got good sound too, and the puzzles did their job. It had a nice creepy mood to it. Everything worked as it should, and I had no problems. Good stuff :8ball:

Very cool game, but there so muach cultist, they ambush me every time

Great atmosphere. The dripping water sounds with that sense of space are super well done.
The art style is cool too — it really has its own identity. I feel like people enjoy this kind of madness, even if it’s a bit brutal. That said, the second section might’ve gone a bit heavy on the satanists

This gave me chills. The vibe gave me extra anxiety while playing this. Great job!

Really like the sound design of the atmosphere, it set a great mood and added a lot of depth to the game!

nice game
Felt this tightness in my chest when enemies got close. Could've used slightly trickier puzzles though)
Great job! =)
