This is a game about a guy with a bag who gets help from his rats in battles! He uses them to fight monsters and travel. Move the rats around the bag and help him overcome obstacles on his thorny path!

I like the idea of picking the action from the grid, very unique mechanic. It was a big tough and it felt a little out of my control if I lost or not. Cute rat! And cheese!

Excellent work. I really liked the mechanics of selecting items on the grid. However, when there are two enemies, it's a 99% loss.

@artalasky Due to the fact that the combat system was made at the very last moment and because of the time spent fixing some bugs, I was able to play only after the game was published and noticed the problem that the game is really complicated and relies on luck to a greater extent. But thanks for the feedback anyway!!

@mrpaket The main thing is that the essence of the game is clear from the first seconds and that this mechanic is cool. :)

Really nice concept! It really needs balance but you could really iterate on this to make a cool game!

@lastuck Oh, of course, I had a lot of unrealized ideas. Thanks!

This is an interesting concept! I did feel it was a bit random and a tad unbeatable. Also I would've preferred to control the game with only the mouse - having both keyboard and mouse felt redundant.

@aviv-levy To be fair, it's worth noting that searching for arrows on the keyboard after controlling the mouse can really disrupt the game flow, as I myself noticed. Thanks!

I tried a few times, but didn't manage to beat 2nd level (with 2 enemies), sometimes I got some attack, sometimes my board was empty and I wasted my energy for nothing. In general I think it is a good idea for the game with management resources, but this needs some polish in balance

Though balance is shaky i can't deny the funny smol drawing style and interesting concept for gameplay, so... looking forward to new updates!

I like the innovative mechanics, but didn't manage to win even after multiple tries, as randomness was often against me :sweat_smile:
Good job!

A fun little game with a cute art style! It would be even more enjoyable if the main mouse character could level up and grow stronger.

I love the core gameplay idea, but couldn't pass the 2nd round either. I think it would be better as a level-based strategy game, lacking the randomness might help.

@mantou Instead, he will collect more and more items and will be even lazier and lazier!

Really cool idea and cute game but too hard and random for me. I wanted to give it a real try but I kept failing really early and it never felt like I could have done anything to win. Pretty cool!
