MOUSE - Official Early Gameplay Reveal Trailer

Join private detective in MOUSE, a gritty, jazz-fueled shooter. With guns blazing and a retro rubber hose animation style, battle your way through a corrupt city full of crooks and danger. Inspired by classic FPS and noir films, MOUSE is the explosive shooter you've been waiting for.

MOUSE boasts a unique visual style inspired by the charm of 1930s rubber hose animation, transporting players to a nostalgic era of early cartoons. Assume the role of a private detective navigating a noir city teeming with gangs, mobs, and characters from the dark side. Unravel a quest for justice in a noir city mired in chaos, corruption, and vibrant energy, utilizing a diverse arsenal of weapons, power-ups, and explosives to thwart the takeover by corrupt politicians. The game's playful weaponry and distinctive health display, coupled with enemies behaving like cartoon characters, add a lighthearted twist to traditional FPS gameplay.

I can’t imagine how much work was put into this. It looks so good.

Knowing how Disney lost its copyright for The Steamboat Willie version of Mickey makes this game so much better 🔥

[BP-dnnv]

This looks way better than that bad Mickey horror game they're making, probably because it's coming from a place of actual passion rather than just shock value and a desire to stick it to Disney.

[WovenYT]

Dude this is awesome. It actually looks like a cartoon. All the animations and the style in general is pulled off so well!

[Netsaver]

The fact they can use the black and white coloring to make it look like they're exploding in ink is a nice touch, it allows them to get away with being completely gory but youtube can't touch them really.

“I have a feeling this isn’t over yet” is probably the best line I’ve heard in a a video game. like the way he says it is like super epic.

The tommy gun feels so perfect, I love the slower fire rate and the sound!
Amazing artstyle, can't wait! <3

[MikeWoods-cz]

It looks like a lot more passion is put in games like these, it looks so good.

[TheLegendaryBillCipher]

Hoping Steamboat Willie Mickey makes a cameo. Also glad it's coming in 2025--I want this to run as good as possible when it comes out because it looks fantastic. So please, take your time.

[chisatosmpai]

It's like the aesthetics of cup head meeting the satirical world building and game mechanics of BioShock. I'm very down for it

[desired]

It looks great for an early gameplay reveal. I think I would love to see more of those world elements be rendered a bit differently, maybe done with some stylized cell shading, because it really feels odd to have all this 1920's-30s inspired animations look for enemies and the player and then everything else is just pretty normal 3D assets (unless that's a story element of like some Roger Rabbit situation?)

[ZaynNaz]

NOW THIS is what I like to see from the public domain. Not some weird disturbing slasher film

[DanglromButReal]

This looks so cool! I love how it takes the 30s style animation, gives it an Itchy and Scratchy type violence, and then turns it into an FPS game. This is truly one of the most unique games I’ve seen in a long time.

[tiend]

This is the type of new and interesting different type of games. We should keep getting every once in a while. I would play this. And I hope it comes to consoles.

[zachtonight]

This is so cool! It's like one of those early Micky Mouse cartoons, but with a lot more violence and slapstick comedy!

[cac_deadlyrang]

I love the new variety in indie games these last few years, especially with the oversaturation of horror and RPGs of before.

[uglyahhfumo]

As a giant fan of classic animation this is probably gonna be one of the best new and unique FPS games out there, especially with the art direction. I'm so glad the art of classic animation has been getting attention with the popularity of games paying tribute to it such as Cuphead and BATIM. 
(Also that little detail with the MPPDA approval mark was really neat, just noticed that. Really shows the dedication the devs must have put into this game.)
Really looking forward to it to coming out!!

[D-User-]

This looks like a breath of old air and I can't wait! I waited 100 years for this!!!

[Kekoapono]

This demonstrates how a game doesn’t need photorealistic visuals in order to look great. I hope we’ll see even more games with beautiful art styles like this than with photorealistic styles.

[Radioactive_Skittles]

I’ve had this game on my steam wishlist since the very first trailer was posted of gameplay in a blank space with a few basic walls. I can’t stress enough how excited I am for this game
