The opening was really solid and I really like the audio and graphics, but I couldn't figure out what to do in the second level. If it was more clear I think it would be a pretty awesome game!

Also, nice to see another game with stretchy cats!

second level is broken because we lost it but thanks for the feedback!

Nice game! Here are my basic thoughts:

  • I love the visuals, with that handdrawn pixel art style and the bolder main style
  • The music is really nice :)
  • I think throwing the cats in the air would add some cool gameplay, even for later/harder levels

I like it though, cats are cool :)

This is a fun idea!

I'm not entirely sure where to go on level 2, so the level design could have been a tad better, but otherwise this is really well made!

I love this game, plus the music makes me laugh, it sounds like I'm hearing "Meow", is it possible or just an effect? great job !

I really like the cats :)

Really good idea! Nice job!

First one I've played with 16 bit aesthetics, I like that aspect. I tried but really couldn't figure how to get into the floating door and I thought the pillar would be a platform.  I understood and messed around with the mechanics anyway. Fun idea.

Came for the cats, stayed for the puzzles. Loved the music and incorperating the mews was really smart. Good game!!

Cute art, smart music (sounds like cats meowing).
Those screen transitions were exquisite.

Had never considered stretching a cat before, very creative idea for scaling

Yeah, that was really fun. To my understanding, level two is broken, which is a real shame, because this game leaves me wanting to play more of it

Best cat game ever! artstyle was extraordinary, music was cat symphony.

I loved the art, great job!

A lot of effort was put in the visuals, it's rare to see a cutscene in a game jam. The cat stratching mechanic is very interesting as well. I think if the controls were better, and some bugs where cats are just stuck in a stratched position are fixed, then it'd be a very solid game. OH, and the cat SFX is gorgeous.
