Hide and Squeak by MrDave
Switch between a man and a mouse as you try to avoid guards and get points by whacking them in the back!
Controls:
Move: WASD or Arrow keys
Attack: Space
Shapeshift: E or Shift (hold down)
(works on an AZERTY keyboard)
As a mouse you move faster and can use the holes to get around, but you can only attack as a human.
The mouse holes on the edges of the map wrap you around to the one on the other side.
Featuring:
- Pathfinding
- Groovy sound effects!
- Dynamic sounds that get distorted (listen to the sounds of the footsteps)
- Rodent action
- Sneakyness
- High scores.
- Atleast one funky screen transition.
- Did I mention my voice?

Love the awesome sound effects! Gameplay is fun, visuals do their job (viewfields extending through walls makes for a challenge when there are a lot of guards) and did I say the sound effects are awesome?
All in all a really cool game! :)
i like the look, sound and the footsteps...
make a bigger map, give the guards the chance to come into play - its too easy to just stand at the door and attack.
great work!
Simple but works and good fun. Audio is the kind tongue in cheek programmer audio I like. Game works as intended though field of view for enemies is a bit weird (through walls?) and it feels like it could be tweaked in some way.
Good one, kudos :)
This is a really good entry and a huge amount of fun to play. Keep up the good work.
A+, would be a mouse again.
Got 50 guards, can you beat that guys? ;)
i think the game is crippled by how easy it is to reset aggro on people. i could easily get enough kills to where my framerate was suffering too much to continue just by walking up to people and hitting them before they killed me.
LOTS of potential in this project though, great job :)
Game itself is fun, a well orchestrated classic, but I didn't really got the use of the shapeshifting skill.
The core gameplay was fun too, though! I could easily see something like this being expanded into a full release. Great job!
The audio was annoying to me but some might be amused. :P
The gameplay was innovative and worked well. I just wished I could toggle mouse mode instead of holding down a button.
When on a hurry, I could enter/exit quickly as a mouse on the holes until the enemies move away ;)
Great job.
