Hi and welcome to my first GMTK Game Jam game and my second overall game jam game! This was a very fun experience, and I will do more in the future! The theme of this game jam was "built to scale" and my game accomplishes this theme because you can strategically resize the rat to make it through spaces where it wouldn't have been able to go.  Anyways, enjoy the game! PLEASE GIVE FEEDBACK! I am new to his and any comment whatsoever will make my day :)! Also, I'm sorry if I made this game too hard, looking back, I should have made it easier. 

CONTROLS: 

WASD or Arrow Keys: Movement

Space: Jump

LeftShift: Dash

Q: Size Up

E: Shrink Down

Story: you are a rat and you have just discovered the ability to shrink and grow your body! You are also feeling very hungry, and you want to steal the Legendary Cheese! Avoid the cook and work your way through the kitchen until you find it!


Sorry, the art and music aren't very good, I'm still new to this :)

the chef killed me so i rage quit but it was pretty fun

As a fellow rat enjoyer, I like this game. I think the art for the rat is really nice and the dash looks nice too, shrinking and growing was fun I think bound to the mouse wheel (haha get it) could be slightly more intuitive, the chef with the gun was funny and I like the cheese at the end, I like rat I like cheese I like this game. 

This made me laugh until I cried, this was so fun you're getting all my stars! Feedback, well, this was my first game jam too, first time doing anything to do with game development (even though I only did the art stuff) so being the art person maybe I can just give helpful feedback that way. 
I think the overall look is cohesive and that's great! and I didn't run into any bugs. I kept trying to press W and S to scale up and down, rather than Q and E, but I'm not used to playing games like this so it could be more intuitive for other people. I've played like ten times now and can't find the cheese.... 

fOUDN THE CHEESE
Okay so it is winnable by someone medium-versed in video games. 

This was great! 

Thank you so much! I will take these suggestions and make the game better!
