Rat Race
A downloadable game
Janitor vs Rat
Its closing time at the supermarket, but a pest still remains. Can The Rat reach the exit first, or will the Janitor beat them to it and prevent their only hope of escape?
Goal of this Project
This project was made as part of a University project where the theme was a multiplayer game with a rat and a janitor in a supermarket. From that theme, I created a top down racing game that meets all of the criteria whilst also learning a lot about local multiplayer.
What you will Find
Players play as the rat and the janitor and must race to the exit, using their unique abilities and 3 unique items to turn the tides in their favour. The rat can hold two items and scurry through holes in the floor while the janitor is resistant to negative item effects and can push cleaning stations to open new paths.
