The Ratty Game is a parody of Super Mario Bros with a comedy-drama plot, inspiring fight scenes and unlockables. The story is that a two-year-old blue mouse named Ratty is given three little coins to look after and is asked not to talk to strangers. However, he bumps into two thugs ('We're not strangers, we're thugs') who con him out of his money. Ratty beats up the thugs and runs away.

I have been working on this game since Hallowe'en, but wasted a lot of time working on other projects and deciding what to do with this game.

The game takes roughly a dozen minutes to play, with a cutscene that's just over a minute long and three short unlockables.

I am making a sequal which is darker than this one and is inspired by games submitted on Newgrounds during the late 1990s.

Hope you enjoy it, but I'm sure you will!

Thanks,
Caltoons

"{{Weird game}}"

Its a bit of a weird game with many different things that can frustrate you easily.
Firstly, the style is very different to the Mario bros, the enemies touch you or you practically look at them and you die, the levels are poorly designed and there are other things.
The first and second level both start off with an enemy in your way... its very easy to have to start again because you'd jumped too late or early or simply run into them because you felt no threat.
The second levels first platform bit is hard to get around, there's a platform above you and one to your side, its nigh impossible to get in the area you're meant to be going.
Another thing is the shortness of it all, the opening scene is nice but the voices are distorted and the scene just feels unesessary, it also doesn't make much sense.
On the last level you WILL run into a coin which unlocks a minigame, fair enough.
The minigame is a pointless addition to the game, it has to be played then which destroys the point of the platform adventure, I noticed that the paddle could get attached to the ball and only come off with a slide; annoyance.

The last level of getting across the screen without being hit by Bowser is incredibly easy and leaves you feeling cheated.
The game itself is a nice idea and another game is being released for it, hopefully it can make a breakthrough with some attention to the problems with this one.
They just seem to be so many.

Made me laugh a bit.
But you have to change the coins so they are less in the way.
