You need to get out of the lab, easy peasy!
Just remember: what doesn't kill you... might do it next time.
`Сause the rules change every time you can't resist Cheems. It also gives you one new immutable rule. Obviously, color is more important than shape, you can make bridges over water, and some objects conduct electricity while some don't.
What else does a mouse need to know? Oh yeah! Trust No One.

The game is working so much better than before, thank you guys! I did happen to find a funny bug where you can push yourself through a wall using the boxes, and run around the outside of the map. Not a big deal just thought it'd be helpful to you guys!
Thank you so much for taking the time to play our game again! We are really pleased to receive your comment.
As for this bug, I suggest considering it a feature :D
In a sense, this is the only good ending. If you were able to push yourself out of the labyrinth, enjoy your freedom! Because at the end of the experiment there is no freedom at all.
Great art and sound!
Lovely art. Was really sad to see the mouse die so many times :(
Thanks for playing and giving us feedback! The fate of the lab mice is very sad indeed...
By the way, we fixed all of the crucial bugs! Now the number of sad moments can be minimized.
Thank you so much for appreciating our art and idea!
We have since fixed the bugs that made some levels unplayable and have also fixed the hint button to help solve any puzzles that might stop the player from reaching the end. We would be super happy if you could give it another go with the bugs all fixed, but otherwise are still glad that you you played our game and took the time to give us feedback!
I'll for sure give it another shot later today!
