Thanks for checking out our our newest game! Pixeljam.com has more if you dig this one.

CONTROLS:
Arrow keys move the rat
Shift key slows the rat (this is important for ball control)
M key toggles music
R key restarts the game
Spacebar pauses

GAME OPTIONS:
Use the options menu on the title screen to play the original maze, switch rats, switch music, and most importantly, play in SCROLL MODE. Some people prefer this method of playing, as it can help you find where you are going.

GAME MECHANICS AND OBJECTIVES:
Collect all cheese as fast as possible.
Collect bonus letters to warp to an alternate dimension of huge cheeses (after you collect all normal cheese). Collect all 7 for a chance at a huge bonus.
Eating cheese and cheese crumbs adds to your score and adds time to your timer.
Apples give you a temporary speed boost.
Balls have multiple functions, and can reveal secrets as well.
Some walls in the game are false... there are many hidden shortcuts around the maze!
Have fun!
