Welcome to our mouse-only foddian game MouseMouse!

In MouseMouse, you play as a mouse trying to escape the cave you're trapped in. However, you have an ally - your own mouse! Use your mouse pointer to control the mouse and climb up the walls to escape in this unique and difficult platformer.


Made for Godot Wild Jam #84, we interpreted the theme 'Critters' by making our mouse pointer a literal critter - a MouseMouse! We hope you enjoy!

(Note: Some playtesters reported the game ran better on Firefox compared to Chrome/Edge)

Amazing game. After ~40 min of going back and forth, 41k seems to be my limit, hard as I try.

It's frustrating. It's supposed to be frustrating. I will do it for the mouse and hopefully not fall too far this next time.

Doing this on a mousepad is surprisingly hard. Still a fun game, though.

When I play this game I feel all the emotions that a real mouse trapped in a cave would feel. It makes me worry, lose hope, and terrified when I start to fall. Falling, falling. Into the deep. No cheese in sight. Just rock and darkness. Home is so far, yet so close. Maybe just a few more clicks...
