When I wasn't feeling good about the theme, I used the time to work on my path/steering behaviors - something I'd been putting off on all of my projects really ended up shaping the game. Even though its only 3 levels long, these mice can be pretty tricky!

Tips: (since I didn't have time for a tutorial) I recommend letting the rats come to a stop around corners and quickly sneaking up from behind or in grass for the easiest catches.

Thanks to everyone who has played it so far - I'm taking all of your opinions to heart and can't wait to play your games too!
