I love the stealth mechanic, and the graphics fit the game really well!
Loving the art style - reminds me of childrens novel illustrations. Gameplay is good fun, if a little too speedy for my tastes.
But those policemen looks so tasty!
Nice graphics and music. Animations are very nice as well.
Cute art style. Pretty unique! I found the game very funny. The way the people reacted is hilarious and gives them character :)
Visual style is very good. I was eat all people (not policeman) and nothing. There is have end?
Really nice and "thrilling" gameplay. More influence on the behavior of the AI could be interesting.
Police officer are maybe a bit too fast for me, and I didn't found winning conditions, but the game is fun and I'm really fond of this game's graphics.
Very unique and good visuals, but the controls of the rat isn't that good. Sometimes hard to get into a side road.
I loved the music and the art. The title screen will haunt my nightmares!
Wow! Simple gameplay, great mood via audio & graphics and good feeling? Niiiice!

IMPORTANT NOTE: If you want to place in the final results, you NEED votes. The easiest way to get votes is by rating other games. Judging lasts for 3 weeks following the end of Ludum Dare. For best effect, rate 20 games as soon as possible. Rating more games is encouraged.
MORE TIPS AND DETAILS AT THE BOTTOM OF THIS PAGE
REMEMBER: The “Theme” category is only for the main theme (You are the Villain). Don’t penalize for not using Goats.
TEAMS: Teams entering the Jam should pick a single representative to submit your game, or create a team specific account you can share. We currently do not support Team Voting, but sharing an account and together playing and rating games is acceptable.
NOT LOGGED IN?: If you get a message about not being logged in, even though you are, it’s because your web browser cached the non-logged in page. You can fix this by either refreshing your cache or clearing your cache. CTRL+F5 in many browsers. Chrome is a bit more work. Press F12 to enable Developer Mode, then you can right click on the refresh button and select “Empty Cache and Hard Reload”. This option is unavailable if you are not in Developer Mode.
We’ve identified the problem, and should have the page caching bugs fixed for next Ludum Dare.
PORTS: Ports to other platforms can be done after the deadline. That said, the sooner you finish your port, the sooner people can play your game, improving your chances of placing in the final results. For best results, provide a Web version of your game, or a Windows version with no dependencies. Also be sure to rate about 20 games to improve your visibility.
MY GAME DOESN’T SHOW UP: If you can’t find your game, it’s usually because the URL to your downloads are missing ‘http://‘. Fix your URLs (http://mysite.com/mygame.zip) and you will show up.
MY GAME CRASHES, IS UNBEATABLE, OR I MADE A TYPO: We allow you to fix crash or win condition bugs after the deadline (in a sense, like “porting” to support more players). We also allow “typo” bugs. I.e. A true that should have been a false, a word that should have been a different word, very tiny changes that you would have caught if you had more sleep. We leave this open to interpretation, but generally speaking your game should be identical to the game you submitted. No new features, just things you messed up last minute. Typos.
I like your visual style. The muddy banjo music adds to the charm.
