Hehe... digging the music and them. Nice work.
nice job man.. but I think you need to rethinking the object. its a bit ambigous :-s
Really love that music hehe. Very CATchy ;)
surprisingly good. great music and mood. quite hardcore.
nice job keeping to the theme! the music is jammin but the incentive to play is kinda lost.
Thanks for the feedback. The object is to survive the nightmare as long as you can. Try different strategies and see what works best. We want people to play a few times until they figure out the best combo for upgrades and weapon types. We plan on refining and polishing the game more in the next few weeks.
Hah, that was a pretty funny game. Disco music was nice. I thought it was pretty difficult to tell what was going to hurt me and what wasn't.
The disco colors were great. We could all use a little more neon in our lives :)
I love that the "quit" button doesn't work. I played about four billion times.
Fun little game! Controlling the cat's movements feels a bit sluggish, though.
Appreciate the feedback everyone!
@andrewkennedy - Pretty much everything hurts you.
@Wampus - One cannot simply "Quit" a nightmare.
@WatercressStudios - Try buying the movement speed upgrades when you see them, they help. :)
Made me lol
Love the music!
This game promises disco kitties, and it delivers.
Whoa this is difficult. The music and aesthetic fit together well though, I just never got very far to enjoy them further.
This is really fun! It's a little hard to see your shots when you are on dance floors though...
Music is incredible :D
HUH. Mate.. Im feelin like a Disco Kitty.. XD nice/cute job! .. what cutejob.. ok.. XD check my projec too mate x)

Haha, brilliant!
Nice graphics, very stylish
very nice music..
game really hard, also better feedback when loosing life would be nice
That music is fantastic!
Awesome
We also made a Disco game, so I had to check yours out!
I'm generally bad at games like this, so I died a lot!
I love that the words were all obstacles. and the music is groovy!
-Kitty
Bullets are nearly impossible to see and the controls are really floaty.
Shooting/hitting enemies feels really soft and unresponsive.
Rad music though.
The music is really something haha
Good job!
Sort of funny. Off-Theme, but that's alright. It would be better if it wasnt so hard right off the bat.
Awesome game :) love it
very nice soundtrack!
Pretty funny.
I like meow-disco ! XD Just for that, you got a good rate ! :D
Good Job but I had a hard time seeing just the eyes in the dark areas :) But the music and concept very good
nice, very funny game :D love the audio
Fantastic mood and music! The gameplay was kind of confusing and the menus are a bit unpolished but overall this is awesome
I liked the music, well done.
well done, establishing the game is in one screen, and the zooming in. 5 stars.
Excellent audio to my ears, fun game at the same time :)
The transition of going to the gameplay screen lags a litte for me though but the rest of it are smooth :D
Cool disco theme with really good music! It was really challenging as you stated in your description. I found it difficult to purchase the right upgrades since the enemies are so relentless and there are obstacles randomly everywhere. I just ended up picking up the closest thing to me. Good job!
The music was fun. It was hard to tell what was dangerous, though.
Had a few problems with the cat rotating when my mouse was close, other than that good.
Haha, I loved the mood, the music is really catching and I enjoyed the game, good job!
Got 7750 after a few tries. Great music, liked the theme use!
Nice game, the music is quite funky haha!
Liked it, even with my terrible dancing skills.
Great dance music in the game. I dancing a little when playing it
pretty funny, cool music too
Ha, cool game. I like the disco music.
UI looks a bit crude, but it's okay.
I don't think limited information is a feature in a fast reaction, hardcore shooter. The game is hard enough as it is.
Really like the disco-cat theme and the music! :)
Nice disco game :)
Thanks for the feedback everyone! We really appreciate all your comments and were taking all of it into account. We definitely plan on polishing this game and releasing it at some point in the future.

freakin crazy this game ;-)...love the music
Great music (yeah, I'm thinking of "Saturday Night Fever") and engaging gameplay :-)
Well done!
Music is really good, but gameplay is lacking for me. I found it all very weird for the sake of being weird. Solid controls and shooting etc, but I don't have a desire to keep playing. Solid entry, but not for me. :)
Cool music x3 I like that the fish are following the cat and not the other way round!!
It can be slightly confusing to know which are "good" or "bad" items.
Fun game but I don't see the connection to the theme. It was somewhat hard at first but once you get used to the controls and the enemies it gets a bit easier.
Kick-ass soundtrack
Awesome music :)
I think it's a good interpretation of the theme + disco + kitty + shooter = strange but fun game. A little difficult to stay alive for long, but maybe I need more practice :)
Grooviest music I've encountered in this LD so far. :)
Fun and challenging! My main suggestion would be to have the 'replay' button on the game over screen immediately start a new game, and have the 'quit' button return to the main menu. Music is awesome! Good job!
The music is good, but the gameplay could do with being a bit tighter. Also, putting it all on the player to figure out what is going on might not be the best strategy.
Played a few times and really enjoyed it even though I couldn't really figure out exactly how you upgrade. Wished it was a little more clear. The game's a little hard, I could never have time to heal as I had to keep moving and kiting the enemies.
I thought it was great that the fish were faster then you, but you could move to the side and they were not the best at turning.
I think the cat should of not been black, you completely disappear into the void of space XD
Great job guys!
Pretty interesting game.We like the music.The graphics are funny too, but you could made a larger disco floor.
Quit does not work.
This is awesome!
Nice idea reminds me the 90s hehehe. congratulations on finishing LD
I really, really like the disco. also nice job making a good game that follows the theme, and not like a game with a snowman :)
The music is great in this!
Great music! But I had no idea of what was happening. I just kept moving an shooting until I died.
Great entry, thanks for sharing this. I would add a crosshair, make it clearer how the gold mechanic works. Punishing, and thats good! Keep it up guys.
The music was great.
Love the colours and the audio :D
Didn't really know what was going on most of the time. Also I'm not sure the screen moving around really counts as fitting on one screen, even if it did the whole zooming in thing at the start, just my opinion thought.
Aaaah I'm gone crazy :D This is cool.
Wow that was so hard... but who cares cause' DISCO KITTY!
wow that was a nice one. great job !
Great music! I liked the little cat too. Sometimes it felt as it had two heads when moving through the dark areas. I think those dark areas need to be much less dark so that you can see the area around you. Maybe have a light source over the cat or something.
The game was quite too hard for me, got to 1k as a record. So I think the mines and such were too many, at least in the beginning.
Never saw any recharge either, so I think the disco floors should recharge health much faster and as a counter effect they could themselves have a timeout so that they go dark after a while and you have to get to the next floor. That would also better justify the whole reason for moving around. Top that off with some killer cat dance moves if player stands still on a dance floor.
Difficulty can be successively increased with denser enemy spawns the longer the cat survives.
I think that could make for an interesting dynamics. Good start for a game though.
Well done :)
Nice music ofc... pretty hilarious and odd.
The map / game world didnt really feel like it had any markers or ways to get a sense of where i was or what i was doing too much.
Very good game, addictive music. Check my game too: President's bodygurad simulator.
gud music ..lol
Great music! And visual is cool, good job =)
I too think the music is amazing - obviously it is perfect for a disco kitty :)
I have absolutely no clue how to play. For me, only two direction keys seemed to work. I shot a bunch of guys and nobody seemed to die (except for me). That being said, I still really enjoyed this game... wait the music just changed while I was typing this... just awesome! :)
Really enjoying the music selection. :D
Fun game! Not sure how it fits with the theme, though; the entire game isn't on one screen any more than any other scrolling shooter.
Interesting game! I feel like the cat has too much stuff coming at it on the first level, so it was a little challenging, but still fun!
Innovation n/a: The game isn't innovative.
Fun 3/5: Its too difficult.
Theme n/a: I can't find any useof the theme.
Graphics 4/5: Great disco colors.
Audio 5/5: Best aspect of the game!!!
Humor 5/5: A cat on a disco? REALLY??
Mood 5/5: FREAK OUT TIME, PEOPLE!!!
Overall 3/5: Not a bad game, but it needs to be easier.
The music is funny, and also the idea. When playing is quite difficult to understand the things you have to avoid and the objects you need to collect for upgrades, I think you should make that visually more clear.
jeje, i had fun playing it ... i love the music and it is quiet playable ... it has all things needed to be a solid entry .... then, solid entry :)
Disco Kitties? Mew've cat to be kitten me right meow.
Dah mew-sic is groovy, man. My kitty likes to dance.
I like that there's quite a variety in the songs. Fun game! Pretty difficult, and it's cool that you can aim for completely different upgrade paths in different play sessions.
I felt that speed upgrades were a bit too necessary though, and I never could figure out what exactly the "FPS" upgrade did.
Man I loved this very innovative and fun. Fits the theme very well. Didn't notice it after playing a while the whole game in the start screen haha :D. Good job.
wayyy too hard!
Not going to lie. As a logo designer I was expecting this game to be a train wreck based on that alone. Was pleasantly surprised. Fun game.
Damn, that's some groovy music, well done!
If you were to continue with the game I'd recommend that you up the graphics and take some time making the enemies behave differently. I'm all for this, so send me a message or something if you are gonna continue : )
70s Disco-tastic!!!
Good music.
LOL ))
Well, gotta say this is a pretty fun game! Nice mood and music, challenging but fun and last but not least: UPGRADES! gotta love upgrades.
Only minor critique: black cat on black background, little hard to see^^
such sexy music, wow
Odd little game, but I had fun with it. :) Love the disco tiles. The wobbly movements of the cat made me laugh. Good job!
good audio, very difficult game. good work!
Excellent music, keeps well with the disco theme. I also liked how the blocks changed color to the beat of the music; it was a nice touch. The cat was very hard to see against the black background, and it was hard to maneuver around obstacles while still shooting the enemies. I think I found items and health up, but for some reason couldn't use them. Some directions on this could have been more clear. All in all, loved the disco theme and music, but gameplay could have been tightened up to make a better overall experience.
Very nice ;)
A button to quit the game is useless for a web version of your game.
Very interesting take on the genre, and very challenging!
Great!!
Quite the confusing game, but I like the music! I Included it in part 19 of my Ludum Dare 31 compilation video series, if you would like to check it out :) http://youtu.be/hTIxzyGfxwg
Pretty fun and addictive game plus I'm really digging the disco music (sometimes I like to move backwards and pretend the kitty is moonwalking :D).
