Space Mouse

Space Mouse is a vertically-scrolling maze game. The player controls a cat who is travelling up through an infinite maze. The player gains points as they travel, and the goal is to travel as far as possible. Space mice travel down throughout the level, blocking the player's progress; the player must dodge the mice, and loses a life if they come in contact them. The mice have simple movement patterns but move quickly, and there are often several on-screen at a time.

Space Mouse was released as a type-in BASIC game in a 1981 magazine, and was later included in other type-in software books. A port was bundled with a number of enhanced remakes as a part of Space Mouse 35th Anniversary Edition for Windows in 2016.
