Reminds me of bomberman, but without the bombs. Not bad, but some sound would be nice and perhaps some effects for collecting stones and mice.

This made my brain twitch around for a while, very nice :)

**Gameplay**

Similar to sokoban, this is a very easy to master puzzle game. The puzzles are simple and effective, I never got bored. One problem I had was that sicne the screen was tiny, it wasn't easy to see the numbers written next to the rats.

**Ambiance**

Maybe lacking due to the lack of music. The plot is cool though.

Played probably half of the levels, which was a considerable amount of time. Nice work having a fair challenge.

This would make a nice mobile game - it's a good little puzzler. My only real criticism is that the screen was a little small for my old eyes.

The cat animation is great - I like how he/she appears to lick his/her lips at the end of each level. Just add some purring and miaowing and it'll be good to go.

This game took away half an hour of my life! Great! The only thing that I'd like to see - is a little bit bigger resolution. Everything else is a good one! Good job, man! :smiley_cat:

Nice take on the theme! The game is easy to pick up and the built-in levels are fun to figure out. Really cool that you included a level editor! The graphics are charming and have that old-school Windows shareware vibe. Runs great on Linux using Wine.

Pretty cool puzzle game with a little crude graphics but cute animations. The gameplay is rock solid and the levels are well designed. Played this with my girlfriend watching and she said she'd totally play this on mobile until she beat every last level, so you might wanna consider further development. :)
Great job overall!

Nice game! The concept is simple and easy to understand, and I love the level editor!
The graphics are OK, but it works well with the game. The built-in levels are really fun and challenging, you let the player progressively understand the mechanics of the game... Really well done.

Congrats! And I second @erkberg : this would make a great mobile game.

This game is really fun! I just missed some music and sound FX but it is totally understandable because of COMPO and stuff xD
Really good job, I enjoyed it a lot :)
