Embed a half sized Ratmaze..

(original publish date: March 8th, 2006)

Hello retro game lovers! Hope you all enjoyed the interview last week. Rat and Burger Boy are still on good terms. I think Rat already forgot all about Burger Boy's cheesy transgression..

This week we've been working hard on Gamma Bros, and it's getting closer and closer to being kinda done! It's great fun to play so far. We'll be Beta testing in a few weeks, so if you want to seriously help us test it out & make suggestions before most people will ever see it, please email us at games@pixeljam.com. First come first play.

So, Ratmaze! I've recently created a map for Ratmaze, and have outlined the route I took to get the best time I know of, 102.3 seconds. I'll probably add that map and route outline to a new blog here in a few days. I have some finishing touches to make on it so it's easier to follow.

Here's something Miles put together for anyone who might like to embed ratmaze in their own web page or profile , etc. It's a tiny, playable version of Ratmaze (without the music) and, well, ths is it right here. try it out:






Cute, huh? There's even a RESET option now, (however it seems that if you actually finish the game and hit reset, it kinda breaks), so just reload the page if you want to play again after finishing. If you're interested in adding this to your page or site, just add this code exactly as it is to your HTML, where you want the game to appear:

type="application/x-shockwave-flash"

While this code is simple and shouldn't cause any trouble, By using this code and playing this game you agree that we are not responsible for any errors, problems or performance slowdowns that may result from your use of this game and embed code.

So, there you go! I hope it works. Let us know if it doesn't and I'll add the code to an external text file instead. Also, watch out that you don't already have a bunch of other stuff embedded in your page. There's only so much some people's browsers and computers can handle. If you do embed it, please add a visible link/credit somewhere near the game to our site "http://games.pixeljam.com". That would be great. Thanks!

Okay, Ratmaze cheat map coming soon...
