Mouse hands out potatoes in his latest trailer
After Kill Knight or Prince of Persia The Rogue, the Triple-I Interactive conference delivered news about Mouse. An FPS that captures the black and white aesthetics of yesteryear and the atmosphere of film noir with a mouse Hormones “Spike-D” spinach. By ingesting this not particularly popular dish, the private detective the player plays can inflate his forearms to deliver severe blows to his opponents. And if his arms fail, the anthropomorph can always make the powder talk with dynamite, a pistol, a shotgun, a Thompson, or even his hand, which can also fire deadly bullets.
Mouse doesn’t implicitly cite his references, but it’s obvious that we can see Popeye, Cuphead for the visuals, and a bit of Doom for the frantic action. And unlike Disney films, there is blood here. Certainly in black and white, but still bloody.
“Mouse has a unique visual style inspired by the charm of 1930s cartoons. Take on the role of a private detective operating in a dark city where there are many gangs, mafias and dark characters. Travel through a city plagued by chaos and corruption and use a diverse arsenal of weapons, buffs and explosives to thwart the city’s takeover by corrupt politicians » (via Steam). Mouse will be released in 2025 on PlayStation, Xbox, Nintendo Switch and PC consoles and could be a good surprise.
