- 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. - Hry
Knowing how Disney lost its copyright for The Steamboat Willie version of Mickey makes this game so much better 🔥
Perfect Timing
Imagine a steamboat Willie Mickey DLC
@@sonicthehedgehoggaming4808 I just want them to straight up call the protagonist Mickey and the girl in the poster Minnie. Maybe use Michael and Minerva instead to fit the action/noir vibe but make it clear they're darker and edgier versions of the couple.
I presume this is no coincidence. From what I remember Disney goes pretty hard against use of their properties.
Looking forward to see where this goes. Certainly not what I was expecting to come from the copyright release :)
why would it make it "better"? Disney specifically allowed copyright to drop so the laws governing it doesnt get extended, allowing them to use other properties like some comic heros they didnt have rights to before now. it was a calculated move, and this game wouldnt exist if the copyright was extended
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.
True
At the same time I kinda think it would be funny if they cram in Mickey somehow, either as a dlc skin or more amusingly as the final boss
Another reason it will probably be good is that they made this before Willie went to the public domain so everyone else was scrambling to make something as fast as they could they actually spent time on it
😍🖤
Smells like discord
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.
I heard Disney is still claiming videos, but yeah i hope we see him
“i’m glad its not coming out for another year” 🤡
@@WickedlyChillthey're claiming those videos for having the music and the whistle
@@jackrogue3696 makes sense, but another question is when do those become public domain
@@MegamaXX500”A delayed game is a good game, but a rushed game is forever bad”
“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.
🥰🖤
I can’t imagine how much work was put into this. It looks so good.
Well, the graphics are obviously simple because the models are filled with gray colors, but I can’t help but notice that it looks very stylish. I see that the graphics are not the highest quality (in terms of 3D models, as I said earlier), but the authors clearly did it with soul.
About the same amount of work most games with this budget put in.
It looks cool because it's different
@@mechanicalmonk2020Absolutely right
@@AlexGameShow24 Stylish? They are 2D cartoons sprites in a generic urban shooter setting! Its more then enough to what the game is going for.
@@SuperSky9But it looks cool and interesting. This is what “style” is made of.
(if I'm wrong, then.. yes, I was banned from Google😅)
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.
Uuuuuhhh..... there's literally all the most gorey games on youtube, and without color filters
@@Narcan885A lot of those videos are probably demonitized or age-restricted because of the gore though
I’m sure they work thinking about CZcams when designing their game.
Made of ink
They clearly did that to self-censor the blood and avoid rating problems.
"Back in my time games aren't so violent"
The game:
NOW THIS is what I like to see from the public domain. Not some weird disturbing slasher film
Tbf the slashers are more for fun than to be taken seriously. But yeah this aged like a fine wine
@@EggsBenedict-te4nj I understand that but growing up with all of this it just gives me a weird sense of uncanny valley, not in a scared way but more in like “I can’t believe what I’m seeing” kind of way.
The tommy gun feels so perfect, I love the slower fire rate and the sound!
Amazing artstyle, can't wait!
Same, It was also used heavily in World War II and my VFW member had one and it was heavy but powerful
usually I'd agree but you specifically pointed out the fire rate... a real one has a pretty fast fire rate. noticeably faster than the one in game
@@Chubby_Lemonprobably for balance reasons but i really hope this game is moddable once it comes out so people can adjust that if they want
@@M50A1 yeah no doubt, Nothing against it. Happens to the Tommy Gun in almost every game and that's fine 👍
Just saying I wouldn't call it "perfect" like that
I though those usually fire between 700-800rpm.
Dude this is awesome. It actually looks like a cartoon. All the animations and the style in general is pulled off so well!
@@RepentandbelieveinJesusChrist. what, that doesn't even make sense to what I said. also I'm not religious, stop trying to force people into becoming christians.
@@WovenYT I think it's one of thise Christian Bots they are annoying af

@@ninleyarchival bro, you know thats absolutely not real right? literally how would some chinese text cause you great harm or something. just delete your message and move on.
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.
Unless someone started playing games like a month ago, this is well known for decades.
Game with solid art direction have proven themselves before. You can check out Hollow knights, Cuphead, Darkest Dungeon or Disco Elysium. They're all games with very memorable visual that works perfectly with the game's concept.
99% of games on Steam use stylized graphics and are not photorealistic. Try actually playing games and not blabbering on the internet
probably why halo 3 aged so well
Ig you started a war
I'd like to see more of these 2D-3D games, mostly for the aesthetic, not just because they're a technical marvel.
It's like the aesthetics of cup head meeting the satirical world building and game mechanics of BioShock. I'm very down for it
It absolutely reminded me of Bioshock and I love those games. This is day 1 for me
Well, technically, it's the aesthetic of 1930s cartoons that inspires both Cuphead and this.
Ugh please just say 1930's cartoon style instead of cup head style lol
@@TwiliSleepy Never.
@@TwiliSleepybendy and the ink machine style
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?)
I had the same reaction when I watched it. I love the concept, though, so I hope they pull of something good.
The assets need to be done in a watercolorish aesthetic to pair better with the toon style. It would also be great to have a few missions in a 2 or 3 tone technicolor aesthetic to reflect the cartoons of the era
I think that's exactly how early 3d shooters looked like, but since they've chosen that specific style of animation for the 2d characters it feels off
Dunno, I think it looks good as-is
Pretty sure the developer did this to mimic how in 20/30's cartoons the background and every element which didn't require to be animated were far more detailed and of a darker color compared to every "moving" thing like characters, doors ecc. ,(,You can see that in this game as even door have a "cell-shaded" look to them.)
This is so cool! It's like one of those early Micky Mouse cartoons, but with a lot more violence and slapstick comedy!
The latter of which can be seen in Itchy and Scratchy from The Simpsons.
Knowing how long they been working on this game for and that the fact they finally get to release it with no copyright makes me happy
It looks like a lot more passion is put in games like these, it looks so good.
A lot of passion put into the glorification of violence. ☺
@@WordsInVain what?
More passion than Disney in the last decade.
@@WordsInVainyup! and you can't do anything about it☺️
@@WordsInVainYeah, just like Tom and Jerry
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.
New and interesting type of game? It's a first-person shooter. It seems like the only thing this game has going for it is the visual aesthetic.
@CrispyGFX I know, but it's still different. a lot of the new games that we see are just copies of other games. And Mechanics So yeah, the first person shooter aspect has been used. Numerous times, but it's all about the delivery of how they use it.
@@CrispyGFXi think that is what the OP is referring to. Its like Cuphead, which was an action platformer but with an art style usually seen in traditional animation but not in video games
@@CrispyGFXyou do realize that eventually every type of gameplay, visual, narrative is going to be tried before so there won’t be anything new and unique and I believe we’ve hit that point.. yes it’s a first person shooter but you don’t have be different with every single aspect of your game to be unique
@@bodacious117 your comment actually just proved Crispy's argument to be correct and his point still stands. Now that leaves the debate on whether or not we all accept the thought knowing that there won't ever be anything truly different anymore going forward and that the most innovative things have already come to pass, or if there's still a proverbial envelope out there to push on ways we haven't even begun to comprehend yet. I thought I'd jump in and play devil's advocate because you both make very good points that you think contradict but actually fall in line nicely with each other. Personally I thought the same thing like "oh, yet another FPS game with a new coat of paint." But I realize that's not inherently a bad thing, if they can make it interesting beyond unique graphics. Because unique art styles can't carry something alone and if the gameplay gets stale it'll quickly get forgotten to time amongst the countless others in the sea of endless content. We can all just accept those facts and be happy with things the way they are, or hope to see something truly different and possibly be left disappointed in everything that isn't. I think the answer to true happiness lies somewhere in between.
Now that OG Mickey Mouse is public domain, he could be included in this game as a bonus skin. Perfect timing.
Now they need to add the Steamboat Willie mouse to this.
This game looks awesome! It's like if the older Mickey Mouse was a playable character in the old Wolfenstein games.
Me clicking on video
“Oh Disney made a new game”
1 second later
“Definitely not Disney”
😂
i mean by the current release date of this game, the stesmboat willie version of mickey mouse would have been public domain for at least a year
It very much feels like a classic Disney-inspired DOOM clone
The fact that this is coming out just after the Steamboat Willie copyright finally expires doesn’t seem like a coincidence.
@@majorlazor5058 more accurately 0:02
They should have a finisher ability where if an enemy gets stunned then little birdies start flying around there head and then you can go up to them and finish them off with a comically large hammer.
I did like the piano drop, though.
Enviromental kills are a nice touch. @@srellison561
perfect
>ledo swap added to funny cuphead remake
@@j5ylim396
Who are you quoting?
Now that steamboat Willie is in the public domain, they should include him!
Ahhh the joys of public domain
I love the new variety in indie games these last few years, especially with the oversaturation of horror and RPGs of before.
Horror and rpgs are still here
FPS games are more bloated than ever, thanks for wasting my time game awards
Tho this one gets my approval
Rpgs are not oversaturated at all and we haven't seen really good horror games in a long while
@@abbas-aliibnmohammadal-nam929 The operative word here being “good” horror games lol, plenty of gartens of banban lol
'oversaturation of rpgs' and then its literally just Undertale, Omori, OFF, and Lisa
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.
"Oh me, oh my!"
It's just another first person shooter. The novelty is in how it looks, that will wear thin quick. All these games are the same.
@@fuzzywzhenah there's definitely plenty of difference in the FPS genre, if you know where to look
Games like COD and Battlefield tend to all turn out similarly, but then you have games like ULTRAKILL and Deep Rock Galactic which are radical departures from most other FPS games.
This looks like a breath of old air and I can't wait! I waited 100 years for this!!!
There is no coincidence, this was planned to be released once Steamboat Willie entered public domain
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!!
Disney Mickey is gonna show up in this game I can almost promise you that. Why? Steamboat Willie entered the public domain.
;)
@@Not_interestEd-Secret boss fight.
I'll agree with cuphead, but I still can't get along with the mentality behind Bendy, as it seems to be simply "it's scary and weird because it's old" which doesn't seem like actual appreciation to me. I mean, wasn't that how they even marketed the game at first?
@@kandigloss6438 Have you played the game? That’s not the reason why it’s labeled as horror!
@@ClunkisMunk No, I haven't played it, modern horror games aren't really my thing to be honest. I just remember the early marketing as "RUBBERHOSE HOROR" and have also seen a lot of younger people talk about how scary and weird older animation is in relation to this game.
Charming. I hope they do more fun and cartoont weapons like the "hand gun" and the dynamite. The potential is there.
They literally showed both of them in the trailer so I don’t know what you are talking about
@@Codyb162 "I hope they do more fun and cartoony weapons like the ''handgun' and the dynamite" If they were talking about adding something that wasn't there they'd say "I hope they do more fun and cartoony weapons like a handgun or dynamite". I don't know why you interpreted it like this
@@Codyb162 Not the fastest runner on the track, are ya?
@@asian_inasuit9239 sorry read it wrong
Best way to use public domain in my opinion. Keeping the original look while making something new! 👌
I can tell you have been working on this it looks way better keep it up fam
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
Check out Fallen Aces by NewBlood if you haven't already.
When was it first posted
@@Zach_Bobalike a year ago 2023 or 2022 I remember this is old news until this new trailer came out
Mickey is now in Public Domain, make him a playable character
Steamboat Willie, not Mickey
@@Till27_SpenceIt is mickey, but from the episode Steamboat Willie. The character's name is Mickey.
Loving the juxtaposition with the old-fashioned animation and intense violence. Also the juxtaposition/blend of 3-D and 2-D animation is amazing!
What a beautiful job. Let's just wait and get it out as soon as possible with the development they've done and the trailer. Honestly, we'll wait and take as long as you want to upload the game. The more polished it is, the better it will be. My support for this project obviously comes from half of the English community.
It's nice to see how much inspiration there is from Blood. Really underrated Boomer Shooter
Just imagine if it is as hard as blood.
The artstyle for this game is amazing.
wow, es simplemente impresionante e imaginarse todo el trabajo que hay detras de Mouse, mis respetos
I’ve been following on this since the beginning and wow this looks good.
Wow this game has made some progress!
I remember first seeing this game when the levels hadn’t even been fully textured.
Can’t wait to see how the final product turns out!
One of the most creative projects I've seen in a good long while.
Looks like a cross between cuphead bendy and the ink machine and BioShock
This looks so much fun and I love the extras of the new paper and old music.
If Toontown crossover this game, it possible happens public domain approach until crazy things more happens.
This is def going on my wishlist!
This is the kind of stuff that makes people want to play video games.
I have a feeling they're going to add a Steamboat Willie easter egg.
Geezzz. Take my money already! Man, this is cool!!! The music... aesthetics...the hand-shooting gesture was a nice add/combo.
Looks realy cool, Ive been waiting for ages for something this unique to come along!
This looks AMAZING so far, love the blend of 2D and 3D elements here, it looks really reminiscent of the classic animated films
Now that Mickey is in the public domain you need to use it
Glad to see people using steam boat Micky for more creative things than horror stuff (I know this trailer came out before he went public domain. But I assume it's about him and they just didn't show it because they were waiting for it to go public domain)
Looks like someone's super ready for Mickey Mouse to enter the public domain.
The rubber-hose art style already makes this great. Definitely getting this when it comes out!
This game honestly looks really really fun I can’t wait
Animation looks great, I can only imagine how much work was out in great job.
I cant wait to play this, this game feels like a breath of fresh air
This looks SO amazing. I just hope that there'll be a patch that let's us play in Technicolor.
With the vibes of rubberhose animations and Bioshock style atmosphere and gameplay, this has the makings of something phenomenal
Man, I hope that there is a mod that adds color, or that the devs add that as a unlockable.
The art style looks great reminds me of vintage cartoons
This looks so charming! Bro I remember seeing the first very early alpha stage of this and seeing it now looks so good. I have high hopes :)
Imagine a multiplayer mode, that would be awesome
Local multiplayer will be great.
Yea😮
CS2 killer:)
Actually that would be really interesting
Literally could put Mikey Mouse and Minny Mouse as a boss. With NO REPERCUSSION.
I really hope there’s more to it than just shooting because I wanna love this so much just based on the art alone
I personally was surprised on how this looks. With the quintillion fps games out there, its nice to see something different
WE NEED MORE GAMES LIKE THIS! And I plan on making my own in the future.
I feel like the bosses could use some work for the 2d style but this is early access gameplay! It looks amazing so far!
Looks fascinating!
Though I would prefer if the backgrounds looked more sketchy and paint-like.
And maybe if something moves, it could turn into a 2D-looking object. That would make it look more legit.
But that's just me. It does look great.
Wow this looks incredibly unique, I usually don’t play these types of games but I have to commend the artist for the design
Glad to see someone actually doing something creative with the public domain. Reminds me of Who Framed Roger Rabit
Guys were ready for that copyright to end !
Amazing work
Hey now you can have Steamboat Willie Mickey Mouse as a playable character.
this is everything id hoped public domain mickey to be
How did it take me so long to find this!? New favorite game
If they add all the humor from that style of animation and Easter eggs and make a lot of content with it, it will go down as one of the best shooters ever
Wait you can get the cup head finger gun by drinking a cup of coffee? That's perfect lol
First person shooters aren't my thing, but this is the most unique one I've ever seen. I hope it succeeds big time.
Love the old type style and just looks fun and so smooth just can’t wait
GameSpot, Subscribed because your videos always make me smile!
Wow, it looks incredible! The artstyle and animation reminds me a lot of Cuphead, but still different and unique in its own way. It seems really great!
This feels like a game that would exist inside the Bioshock universe
Bioshock was the 60’s era, and these kind of cartoons are 20’s era. It would not be strange of the normal world in bioshock actaully liked these as retro cartoons ^^.
How did I miss this? It looks awesome!
Finally! Something fresh!
This game looks way better than any AAA game i have seen, No CGI, just gameplay , when a game is confident to show real gameplay, you know its great
You have not seen any AAA games...
No CGI? Do you know what a game even is Lol

Man I’m so pumped for this game.
This is currently my most anticipated game of 2025.
I'm so excited for this, I've had it on my Steam forever now. I am excited for the Toxic Crusaders game as well
I would definitely buy this game if it ever comes out
This is what they should've originally put out as their initial trailer! This looks so much better now that they actually have something to show off.
I would love to think that legendary animator Ub Iwerks would find this project super cool! Love the art direction for this game, gonna look forward to development updates soon!
Yeah I’ll definitely be getting this when it drops
looks so diiferent to other shooters a breath of fresh air
The amount of work they put into this is so beautiful and cool
Just in time for Steamboat Willie to hit the public domain. Nice
now that he's public domain...i wonder if Mickey will be an easter egg...or worse: *The Main Villian*
Now this a game worth looking into, tired of the realistic looking games.
So true!
I wonder if they will add steamboat willie in this game since it’s public domain now
I love the style of this game I’m definitely gonna play it if I can afford it
Looks incredible.
