Ratz

Based off the 1996 game Rats! by Sean O'Connor, built in Java and JavaFX.

How to play

1. Pick or create a profile
2. Choose a map to play on (you'll need to beat the previous levels to play the next)
3. Kill the rats before they overwhelm you!

Installing, Compiling and Executing

$ git clone https://github.com/Greenfoot5/Ratz.git

Design

Please note, as this was a coursework project, the final result was a modified version of design, and the design was not updated post-submission (it was completed before starting the programming)
