Hiirun

About

Hiirun puts you in control of a witch's cat who is on a frantic chase after her master, now transformed into a tiny mouse. You move through an arcade style level filled with hazards while trying to rack up points. Your main goals are grabbing cheese and using bouncy flowers to reach higher areas. The traps set for the mouse will hurt you if you step on them, and some flowers react badly to magic by becoming deadly obstacles instead of helpers. The game runs smoothly in your web browser or on Windows without needing any special setup. The tight controls make every jump feel precise as you dodge spikes and avoid the magical flower traps. Players have noted the score ceiling is surprisingly high for such a simple premise, with top runs often exceeding fifty thousand points. Veijari kept the art clean and the music snappy to match the fast pace. It is a straight shot of skill based fun that does not waste time on story or complex systems. You just play until you hit your best run or decide to take a break.
