Actually, you've hit the nail on the head. Our entire visual development strategy revolves around laboratory mice.

Essentially what happens is this:

1. We get a really big experimental maze with a glass top. This is fitted with speakers.
2. We put a couple of hundred lab mice in it.
3. We then play music really loud and film the movement of the mice.
4. We try to model their behaviour in software.

The different visuals come from the differing levels of stimulants (coffee, sugar, etc.) and depressants (U.S. Election/U.K. Flooding coverage) the mice are given before the experiment.

It costs quite a lot, but we spare no expense to bring you the best visuals possible.

ObDisclaimer: No animals were harmed during the making of this software.

My cat does the same thing, swating at the visuals too. Of course, he does the same thing with the lights on the switch, so I don't think it takes much to amuse him.

That sounds like the title of a trashy porn flick.
