The year 2064 is a cruel, heartless place. The world has devolved into a psuedo feudal system, corporations represent the new feudal fiefdoms and CEOs are the new kings. Society has stratified into new social classes: managers, the new lords and contractors and workers, the new serfs. Freshly 'redundant', Victoria "Mouse" Hart suddenly finds herself neither. Previously contracted to the Arisana Corp as a corporate thief, she was skilled in infiltration and corporate espionage. Now she stands outside a hot dog stand in the pouring rain, seeking a new kind of work, and a little revenge on her old masters.

Made in 15 days for #LOWREZJAM.

Gameplay

Mouse 2064 is an unforgiving shoot first or die side scroller. You have a limited number of bullets. As the levels get harder, you will have to successfully balance this fact with using your stealth, your reaction times, hacking terminals to regenerate your energy bar, and the countdown timer, to successfully complete each.

Fast completions, using less bullets and setting off less security alerts will lead to a higher score.

Stealthed:

Drones

Drones move quickly throughout the level. They can also see you when you're stealthed. They have a medium reaction time. Use caution around them.

Everything else was created by me.

Known Issues

The WebGL build may not show the muzzle flash properly (sprite is z fighting with background layer and the background wins) Fixed? Hopefully.

Sound doesn't play on energy pick up (no feedback).

HUD energy bar doesn't meet the 64 pixel limit.

Still sorting out using the gamepad in all the main menus.

I have no way of testing the Linux and Mac builds.

Still unemployed.
