DADDY MOUSE

A brave little mouse needs help gathering cheese so he can get back to his family. This colourful side-scrolling platformer takes him through forests, frozen mountains, volcanic ground, the open sea and ominous castles. Along the way he leaps over traps, finds concealed routes, gathers golden stars and faces tough bosses. It is a gentle-looking adventure with real platforming demands, and the variety of settings keeps each stretch of the journey feeling different from the last. Keyboard controls work on desktop, while touch buttons appear for mobile play.

Movement is supported by extra abilities that unlock as you progress, including an interaction or attack button and a dash that opens up faster routes and tighter jumps. Collecting and exploring sit at the heart of the design, so players who enjoy searching every corner will find plenty to do between boss encounters.

Use A and D or the left and right arrows to move on desktop.

Press Space, W or the up arrow to jump, holding it for extra height.

Use E or X to interact with objects and attack when needed.

Fire a weapon with F once one is available, and dash with Shift or J after unlocking it.

On mobile, move and jump with the on-screen arrows and tap E for actions.
