Organic Mouse by Jenny B
You are a Harvest Mouse. What are your plans for the winter? Prepare for hibernation, or maybe start a scientific career harvesting lab grown organs.

First time ever creating a game for us! Learned how to use Godot on the fly.
2D Platformer with four potential endings, made with Godot engine. Custom Graphics done by Jenny & Karita. Custom music by Nam Hee Kim - https://nhgk.bandcamp.com/

Gameplay- direction arrows, 'awsd' and space bar (hold to jump, double jump allowed).

I enjoyed the graphics and the music. I really liked the moment when I realized I have become i little red lab mouse :D
One thing you could improve is how your colliders match your sprites. Sometimes I found it a bit hard to see where I could stand on and where I could pass through.
Overall a really cool little experience, you can be proud of yourselfes :)
You could mainly improve on the controls, having something more dynamic, but those concept are not easy to put in place.
Overall very cool :)
That was a really strange career choice for a mouse...
Wonderful game! I really liked the cute graphics, well made!
The collisions were a little bit strange, but the game was still very fun!
Well done!
The graphics are pretty cohesive, though at times I struggled a little figuring out what I could move through and what would block me--a visual indication for the difference would be welcome.
The music is very nice and sets a great mood. Some jump and pickup sounds would have been the cherry on top.
Nice job, keep making games!
This was also my first game jam and first time programming for a game and there's a lot to learn! Hope you had as much fun as I did!
Really liked the idea that your character and goal would change based on what you decide to collect, it was such a clever spin on the theme.
Unfortunately the first info screen disappeared way too quickly and couldn't read it all, which consequently felt like I was missing part of the story. However I loved the sudden change in atmosphere when you went down the science path, the music and character design especially was really effective in showing that. On that regard, I really enjoyed the music throughout.
Controls are probably the part that needs the more fixing. They felt pretty clunky and "floaty", and it was also kinda unclear that you could double-jump until I accidentally managed to do it. A snappier movement would go a long way in making the game feel more fun and engaging to play.
Great job on your entry!
