The Hour of the Rat

I've tried to crack this for an hour and it's a rather horrible experience. The idea as cool but the implementation is just pure jank, let's just say that the main parkour mechanic is straight broken, it's ridiculously hard to control jump distance and the mechanic of jumping of street lights sometimes just doesn't work. In the tutorial it works fine, you can sit on the lamp for like a second and it's enough to input next jump but in game you sometimes just fall from it after couple of frames. Also controls are horrible and you can't remap them. Every jump is followed by nauseating screenshake. I really don't understand how socpop manages to fail at the most basic of implementations of mechanics and UX almost every time, cause ideas are usually quite interesting but then it feels like it their first game ever and they haven't even spent an hour playtesting it.

No tutorial makes this this simple game unnecessarily difficult, and the slow movement stops it from being the fast-paced platformer it's trying to be.

This game is the sole reason i ended up in AA.

if you like old ass retro game that used to whoop your ass without any mercy then you will love this game

This game definitely requires patience to fully get. There are a lot of things that don't work in intuitive ways. The game doesn't explain most of its systems, so trial and error is inevitable. There are even a couple ways to softlock yourself if you aren't careful. But if you can get past all that, then you'll have a pretty good time. Even after getting all the achievements, I still wanted an excuse to play more. Give it a shot if you want something that's tough as nails.
