Futari Nezumi

This is our entry for Low Rez Jam 2019, a puzzle game featuring mice and geese!
Featuring Puzzle and Travel from Gruber's Pico-8 Tunes Volume 1. Also available on Itch.io.

Pixels, Design and SFX by Nette

Story

Once, there was a peaceful town of mice. Every year, the geese migrate through and cause a whole mess of things, but then they leave. This time, Mouse Central Intelligence learned that the geese plan to migrate in for KEEPS. So it's up to special agents Minx and Fufu to infiltrate the geese's industrial complex, capture the executive migration orders, and swap them out for the dummy ones that will send them to Antarctica instead.

The Characters

Minx is brown and is a toughie. She can lift anything her size, and can knock out a goose in one punch! X to pick up a box she's next to, or to knock out a goose from behind!

Fufu is grey and is nimble, can roll and crawl through small spaces. Use X to roll into the vents or behind a turning goose!

Controls

  • Left and Right to Move
  • Up to press switches and enter unlocked doors.
  • X Switch between the two mice.
  • Z (Fufu): Roll. Roll into a vent to change floors.
  • Z (Minx): Strike. Strike a box to lift it (press again to put it down). Strike a Goose to daze it for a moment to get past.

That's me, I'm the artist!

There's 5 levels right now (and probably forever, the game feels "done"). See if you can beat it and see the ending!

The characters are so cute! It’s amazing what you’ve managed to achieve in such low rez.

And this game also taught me some Japanese! :-)

Good puzzle - but maybe add a black outline around the 2-mouse players and possibly opponent sprites ? Hard to see in the 64x64 enlarged pixel screen.

Thanks for the feedback! If we come back to make an update to it, we'll consider this!

Very nicely done!

Not really a fan of 64x64 rez, art would be so much better at normal resolution :/

Thanks for the feedback. The game was made for LowRezJam which stipulates the 64x64 resolution. We made the best of what we had to work with. 😊

Mices looks very adorable <3

Fun, also I love how you could put such character in their sprites, literally just the small eye differences made their personalities show.

This game is great! However, you should make the goal more clear. It took me a while to realize that you should get both mice in the checkered area.

Thanks for the feedback! This game was programmed for a jam over 2 days, and we consider it "done", even in its imperfect state. If we ever decide to grow on it or make a sequel, we'll be sure to put extra effort in the quality of life stuff like instructions.

This game came up on discord and a bug was found in this line:

if(flr(rnd(2) == 1))

What was probably meant:

if(flr(rnd(2)) == 1)

Oh gosh thanks! It makes me happy that it came up in a discord chat though! 😊

Nice game, mind if I adapt it to my very own non-Pico 8 video game production?
I've happened to come up with my very own video game style and pixel art.
