Several years ago, we completed Rat-a-Sewey, our first small game in Unity, and put it out on Itch.io as a downloadable. Since then, I've moved over to Godot, and wanted to rebuild this game in the new engine and as a web playable. And it's now officially out!

Of course, in addition to remaking the game, I wanted to make a few additions and improvements:

• You can no longer click on the hunger meter and drag it like a UI element. Hey, it was my first game!
• Music now crossfades nicely instead of just jumping from one track to the next.
• Screen shake - with an option to disable it if you want, of course.
• Tweaks to Charlie's speed and how the difficulty ramps per level.
• Adjusted the drop rates so you get slightly more food items and it won't just drop 10 poison pills in a row like it used to sometimes do...
• It's now more obvious when you level up.
• New rat hand pointer icon and UI sound effects.
• A surprise new hazard when you make it to level 6!

I would love to hear what you think! I didn't want to change it from the original TOO much, but let me know if you think there's anything that needs improving. Otherwise, enjoy!

And just because I haven't mentioned them in a blog yet (who has two thumbs and is terrible at blogging?) - I've also been doing a bunch of game-ready assets like icons and 3D models and a couple of mobile games on Android you can check out if you'd like!

Here's a sketch for a piece I've been working on for a while.

If you're interested, the full color version is up on my Patreon now, with the timelapse coming within a few days.

I'm happy to announce my new INPRNT shop! I set up a shop there because I'm very impressed with their dedication to offering high-quality prints, made in the U.S.A., and with a very fair percentage of each sale going to the artist. Not all of my work is up yet, but if there's a particular piece you want to see, please let me know.

They offer full archival quality giclée prints, wrapped canvas, frames, acrylic and metal prints, as well as cards, stickers, and even phone cases. Since everything is printed when it's ordered, they can also offer a greater variety of sizes than I'm able to do through our own Etsy shop.
