dRAT!

A simple platformer created as part of my "VGC106 Game Platforms 1" class. I tried my best to give it an NES look and feel. But it's by no means a perfectly authentic experience.

Story:

Sewer City, home of the mutant rats is being attacked by the Roaches! Assume the role of Dee, the furious rat protector, to retaliate against the invaders and defeat their leader EmperoRoach!

Controls:

The control scheme is fairly straight-forward. Use the left/right arrow keys to move, and the up arrow key to jump. The down arrow key is used to drop through thin-platforms. Finally, the space bar initiates the claw attack.

Difficulty:

The game has virtually infinite lives. The only condition is that you have to complete the game (defeat the boss) within 15 minutes. If you fail to do so, you'll get a bad ending. Losing all your health will reset your character with 3 hitpoints, but will cost you 30 seconds of time. So dying frequently will drain your counter.
