Rats World. A little world where rats wander and play.... what secrets does it hide?
This is an exploration puzzle game with somewhat obtuse mechanics and lots of hidden passages. It is a Sekret Santa gift for fotocopiadora. I didn't make it entirely by myself; I had some help with the audio from my friend Hubol (hubolhubolhubol.com).
fotocopiadora's wishlist was:
- rats/scorpions/bugs
- plenty of menus (of the videogame sort not food menus)
- secrets
anything not in this list is probably ok as well though
Controls:
Arrow Keys or WASD: Move
Enter or Space: Action
Credits:
Graphics, Design, and Programming: Sylvie
Music and Sound: Hubol
You can listen to and purchase the Rats World Ost on Hubol's Bandcamp: hubol.bandcamp.com/album/rats-world-ost
If you get stuck, here are some general hints. Use ROT13 (rot13.com) to decode them.

I made an account to say that I stumbled upon this and got a huge kick out of it! Nostalgic gameplay and clever, cute aesthetic.
Thank you! I'm glad you

Completed this early today and really liked it! Would love to see more games in this style.
Yay, thanks for playing!
Yay, thanks for playing!
My previous game Planet Grunch has a similar focus on finding secrets to progress, but it has difficult action elements and limited lives. Sparkly Rainbow Kitty Fluff Adventure is also a secret-heavy game but there are some tricky platforming sections. And they don't really have any RPG elements like stats to level up and characters to talk to, so they are pretty different games, but if you liked the exploration and secret-finding aspect specifically then you might like them.

This was so cute.

I will definitely come back and try this again.
Thanks!
Thanks for the nice comment! If you try again and get stuck, the ROT13 hints I included in the main post might help you figure out some of the mechanics.

I got real frustrated, but I am very happy with the reward at the end
Glad you liked the ending!

happy ending
short version: i loved this so much !!
long version:
i really dislike rpgs. like, a lot. i think so many games add rpg elements and they make me never wanna play them, which is why i stick to tinygames and old games. i'm also not a fan of dungeoncrawlers, anything not realtime, and pretty much everything what this game is lol.
i loved the aesthetics, so i decided to give it a chance, also because i want to play all sekret santa games.
so i started this when i was teaching. well, it was just worktime, i wasn't playing this while lecturing lol. i can handle non-realtime games in situations where i might be interrupted at anytime, so i decided to just do this.
it was a lot harder than i thought it would be. i honestly felt like quitting a few times.
not sure exactly when it was, but i found a secret and it just clicked for me. i finally found the magic in this game!
i ended up having to let it go for the night, on a thursday. i was looking forward to tuesday until i can play it again.
i didn't finish on tuesday either, and i enjoyed it even more. same with thursday.
i just finished it today and it feels so good. i can't believe you got me to like a game in a genre that i really really dislike. now if only you could make strategy games tolerable lol jk
it's like playing puzzlescript games, they look so cool but i don't have patience for them, so i need an opportunity to slow down and focus on them.
also because i finished it at home, i was finally able to listen to the music and sounds lol they're so good
now i'm sad because it's done):
thank you so much!!<3<3<3
p.s. this is going to be a very fond memory for 2019 for me
Wow!
Wow, thank you so much for this really nice comment! I'm glad you liked it!!
