Shriek

Oh cheese! You are a mouse in a dark place using wits to survive. Can you keep your colony from starving?

This game is a mix of stealth and a platformer made in 9 days for 2021 ScreamJam https://itch.io/jam/scream-jam-2021

Instructions and hints

E = Pick up/Drop        Spacebar = Jump           WASD = Movement          Shift = Sprint

Aim:  Collect cheese then deposit it in the burrow to keep your mouse family alive, or give it to the digger mouse (in the tunnels) to keep expanding the tunnels and have a cheesy destiny (follow the cheese trail).

Hints: 
If you're being chased, you can find the burrow or tunnels for safety.
There is a tunnel entrance right at the start run in there to get away. Or you can just evade if you can.
After collecting cheese you are weighed down and run slower, deposit it or drop it. Though, the more food you collect the more of your colony will survive.
Pick up mushrooms (E) to carry a light.
