Pressed for time?! Same for this rat, but he can manipulate it! Join RedEyes the Rat at the home stretch of his life. Sneak into the bank, steal the diamond, evade the guards . . . and then get out! But most of all, be clever, trick time, and take back what’s ours from the Pigs who control all the banks in Swine Island City.

Post news Report RSS Rats - Time is running out! Alpha demo out!

We recently released our first playable. Rats - Time is running out! a blend between Gauntlet and Pac-Man. Rats will give you a taste of a Heist in a unique and funny environment.

Posted by on


Our focus is to recreate a sort of Pac Man on speed in which you will feel constant pressure all the while forcing you to be concerned about the time. You will need to be focused, quick & strategic in the same time in order to succeed. In the end, you will feel the adrenaline rush of a heist & receive a greater sense of reward when you successfully complete any heist.

Alpha EXE Installer

The demo you have access to on our kickstarter (and on IndieDB) is in pre-alpha, which signifies that it is incomplete. Amongst other game elements which are mentioned further down on this page, for the release of the game we will have variants of pick able items such as a stinky cheese that will repulse the guards away. You will notice as well, two types of loot: coins & the diamond. One of the major game mechanics that will be available for the release is the ability to use the coins you have accumulated to purchase equipment or upgrades for your character in your hideout in between heists.

Nice! Will you be able to beat some missions using stealth or is it mainly just escaping from the cats as quickly as possible?

Thanks! We don't want to go too far about the stealth mechanism(and focus more on time), but yes, some level can be just about not getting seen. There is also few ideas about rooms where time passes differently and we want to add some items that changes the way you play too (hat that can make you invisible for a whlie, cheese that makes you smell so bad that guards run away, etc.)
