Cool but maybe over use of audio? Still good job!

Cool game. The sounds were funny. A+ for cats.

I liked the game, but the sound was too loud. At least for me.
Btw, I was dying without know the reason.
And I think that we should have a better balance between use attack to move, or actually attack.
I was loosing a lot of energy just to avoid the end of the screen.

=)

Thanks for the great comments. Agreed: audio needs balancing. I do like freaking my cats out when they here the cat fight. :)

If you get hit while defending, you get points back.

Thanks for the comments!

Not bad. i like the sound effects, and the game was pretty challenging too!

Not bad! :D

This game just isn't really that fun. I think it's because hard to lose unless you intentionally try to. Perhaps it could use some balancing? The enemy cats could also block to make it more challenging.

Even though, good use of the theme. Graphics are simple but get the job done, even if it would be nice to see some kind of animations. Music is nice but sound effects are a bit grating.

Great job on finishing the compo.

The game made a lot more sense once i realized that blocking gave you energy back, but then it also became a little too easy. It's an interesting mechanic, though.

I get a lot of decodeAudioData errors on Firefox (linux 64 bits). Works fine on chrome.

I was playing with speakers, not an headset, so I thought the audio was ok. I just didn't find the gameplay that much fun...

Gahh, the sounds :D Perhaps played a bit too often.

I think some more feedback on a successful attack/defense could make it more intuitive to see when you've done something right.

Interesting anyway, keep at it :)

Thank you for the great comments! I definitely would have added those things if I had mare time. Mostly I am proud I got something done.

Well, I think it could have had better visuals, audio and at least some kind of reasonable ending as I traveled multiple screens.
Keep up the good work!

I found the game interesting. I had trouble keeping from just what appeared to be random dying. I THINK I killed a few enemy cats, but sadly - not really sure. It has good potential. The audio, while at least was there, needed some balance and some variety.
