I'll post a high-resolution copy of this on my profile.
A lot of this design doesn't really show up in a gif this small.

really cute. i think if u give the mouse a different color from everything else it will stand out more.

cheezyswirl on Jan 09 '06

$5, great game, no color needed imo

caseface on Jan 09 '06

omg i love it. $5 just the color on the cheese looks good to me! i love it in blue.

kasia15 on Jan 09 '06

plans on Jan 09 '06

that mouse is brainwashing. it's making me give this a good score.

queebuck on Jan 09 '06

I agree with everyone who said that the mouse should be more distinguished.

CapelliRossi on Jan 09 '06

I laughed out loud when I saw this.

PatheticIndividual on Jan 09 '06

So freakin' cool.

BloodyMidget on Jan 09 '06

I loved that game...but I do not love this design...it is poorly executed from the perspective perspective (wow I have never gotten to use that word twice in a row and have it make sense)...2 mostly because I love the game.

Matuso on Jan 09 '06

That's awesome...

elmo77 on Jan 09 '06

i thnk the mouse needs to stand out more

b-day on Jan 10 '06

The mouse is cute but the drawings are bit too amituer

b-day on Jan 10 '06

could do better

unstitched on Jan 10 '06

I love the drawn on a peice of notebook paper feel it has. It's sketchy and the perspective's off but this is a t-shirt, not a perspective class. I think it works for the content. Lots of fun and refreshing. Would buy. $5

Poonam on Jan 10 '06

mouse is cute!

stripthebarknow on Jan 10 '06

the skewed perspective was intentional in this one; i wanted the shirt to have the same chaotic and ridiculously complex feel of the game. so i wanted the design to kind of sprawl around the shirt. so the perspective isn't "correct", but it's what i wanted for the design.

Loli-tan on Jan 10 '06

Excellent perspective, you're stupid and cannot relate to the actual game's abstrct and perplexity when assembling if you think otherwise. 90% of the goddamned game was building it and I don't know about anyone else but I hardly if ever played the actual game, I just played with the pieces to trap the mouse. It was hard enough as it is to keep the thing in working order for a whole game session.

You know what else was like that but needed no assembly? Hot Potato. Who was lame enough to use the cards? </3

Kaleidoscope*swe* on Jan 10 '06

wayyyy to big

inayellowsub on Jan 10 '06

the mouse trap is overall a little clumsy in design....maybe you could tighten it up a tad?
but im absolutely lovin the concept...if you work on it some youll def have a print im sure.

ill give it a 4 for now.

lovesloudmusic on Jan 10 '06

i think it looks great; about the mouse being more obvious, maybe you could make the cheese a bit larger so the yellow spot is more visible from farther away. that would probably draw attention to the mouse better.

Mister_Fiend on Jan 10 '06

the fun is catching. mousetrap. i love how it's just about to spring on that cheese chomping rodent.

mckinb on Jan 10 '06

Ok, but not on a khaki background

therobbbster on Jan 10 '06

mousetrap. im guessing you go to burning man.

love_lingers on Jan 10 '06

awww... the ball is fallling ... i guess the mouse gonna get caught after all...

still .. i love the design... it's very cool loooking

5$

trotsky on Jan 10 '06

mmm goldberg. mmm mousetrap.

there should be more shirts with those two components.

Katie_ladie on Jan 11 '06

i loved that game!!

megielu on Jan 11 '06

Mouse Trap was great, my favorite game, very nostalgic, i love it!

MsSaltron on Jan 11 '06

i like it becuase i love this game. the blue and brown both dont work for me, the brown is too sketchy looking and the blue is just a color i dont like, maybe a darker blue or dark gray.

inertia7 on Jan 11 '06

clean up the design, use bolder lines, ditch the boy jumping on the plank, minimize the "perspective" and make the mouse more prominent... but i do want me a mouse trap shirt, so don't give up on it...

xladykinsx on Jan 12 '06

its a good design, i don't think it would word with more colour, i think you've got that perfect, just a few tweaks with the perspective and it'll be amazing :D

Sauza Gold on Jan 12 '06

the mouse is freakin adorable.

letsbeheros on Jan 12 '06

haha oh man, mouse trap rocks.

AlixAri on Jan 12 '06

i love mousetrap!

instant pleasure on Jan 12 '06

great design 5$

st.eve on Jan 13 '06

ha ha..i love it...would love it more if it had more colour to it!

thomasmccluskey on Jan 14 '06

its too big, takes up way too much space.

how about having the mouse in the foreground and make the rest of the trap smaller in the distance, therefore taking up less space and focussing on the main part of the shirt?
