Protect My Cheese

Very fun game. I made a video on it:

Hey there, my name is Zakaria but you can call me Zak, I am a YouTuber focusing on Indie Games! I had a new idea which is basically every single day I check hundreds of new released or updated games on itch.io and from a very long process of eliminations I pick up the Top Best Games! I am gald to say yours made it on the list of Top 8 Best games from total of 178 games I checked yesterday!

I am planning to keep doing every single day with enough support! I would appreciate it for you joining the channel and Subscribing to spread this idea even more because this ambitious idea takes a lot of energy and time to keep it going every day and a little bit of support goes the long way to motivate me to keep doing this!

I normally take game requests and do a fun crazy gameplay walkthrough! (You can watch one of my recent gameplay videos to have an idea about that in case you decided to put a game request video).

My main reason (my other reason is down below) to why I am doing this is that I have made some really good friends on the plaftorm here on itch.io and most of their games are not even being noticed despite being really good and well made! So I am doing this to give a chance for those who have great projects and make long and big efforts to their games but still don't get enough attention! I hope this can bring some value and help to you developers who deserve that appreciation!

Note: I will be copy paste most of things written here to the others who made it on the list to let them know! I like to be honest hahah, so my other reason is clearly to try to grow as a YouTuber! No content creator can deny they are trying to grow in way or another xD!

Game Test & Review Breakdown

Protect My Cheese

1. First impression

Ø Mechanic

The Gameplay Mechanic I say is pretty simple and easy, you showed us at the first

Ø Map

The map is great it has a lot of detail in it

Ø UI/UX

I say the UI is great, I love the UI especially the click sound effect, and also the positioning is great especially the part when we’re on the left part of the map the UI will pop up on the right side of the screen so its doesn’t bothering us playing.

Ø Modelling

The Model is pretty good but the mouse is kinda on poor quality, the mouse looking like a 2001 animation model or something.

Ø Feeling

This game is fun but I got a bit bored because of the difficulty of each wave doesn’t really keep me going on.

Ø Audio

The music and the sound effects are great and match with the current theme

2. Bugs & Glitch

Ø Bugs Report

Didn’t found any

Ø Glitch Report

Didn’t found any.

Only the game is kinda framming

3. Rating

Ø Gameplay

7/10

Ø Map

9/10

Ø Mechanic

8.5/10

Ø Literally The Game Overall

8/10

4. Feedback & Improvement

Ø Gameplay

Optimization needs to be done, im using a decent laptop but it still laggy and sometime framed even in the lowest graphic(to make it playable on low class device).

Also the fish that we got from every mouse we killed might need to get lower by like 5% because the fish we got its like too much, my map is already full even though the level wasn’t finish yet.

Also the game needs to be get more engaging

Ø Mechanic

Please make a range preview for the range upgrade,

And also when our cheese got damaged can you make like an effect for every damage we take permanent for the whole level like the red screen effect gets thicker and thicker after each damage we take, and it stays for the whole level.

And the camera moving part, Something needs to be done with that(im still doesn't really satisfied with the camera movement)

Ø Map

The path I think needs to be more visible like giving it some little detail like ashes on the middle or on the edge of the path

Ø Modeling

Something needs to be done with the mouse model.

Give the tower a model upgrade after each upgrade.

And also the stain from the shootout color needs to be change because its looking kinda disgusting.

Ø Storyline

The storyline is already good but I think it needs to get more longer to make it more sense.

Note

Firstly im still wandering the connection between mouse and fish but its not a problem.

This review I say is you to continue this game, I know it was made for a game jam.

If you got a finish update I’ll probably gonna make a review video about this game.

Release It On Other Platform Too, Its going to be very unfortunate if its not.
