Nice game! Loved the idea :D

ruba 2017-12-05 16:05

Very nice clicker/cat manager simulator! I like graphics, animations, sound and humor. Awesome work!

bram-ve 2017-12-05 20:54

I liked it a lot! You've implemented a smooth difficulty curve, i had no problem picking it up and did get very challenging in the end. Good job, also nice cleaning animation!

tywiggs 2017-12-05 20:59

all my cats ended up hating each other this game is prob my future

thebillington 2017-12-05 20:59

Did not enjoy this game. Seemed so easy at first and ramped up very fast in difficulty, can see why someone that likes cats may enjoy this but the little bastards can piss off if they're gonna fight and still want me to give them food and shovel their shit. 10/10 would never play again!

Edit: Great job on the animation! Character models were fantastic

amir-bayareh 2017-12-05 21:03

I was laghing for about ten minutes dragong the cats all around the yard!

Nice game, a little bit difficult to aim correctly. Sometimes the clicks just didn't work for me. Nice graphics and aesthetics!

mess110 2017-12-05 21:04

Great graphics, at one point I was just cleaning cat poop

goddess 2017-12-05 21:05

Went really difficult really fast, with a slower transition it would be playable longer. Liked the graphics. Cute kittens :)

Great idea, seems like popular one also, here's another example: https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/40/cat-lady :)

Nice! Finished on day 7. Nice to see mouse only controls in other mostly keyboards entries.

sun-wukong 2017-12-05 21:16

Ah, the cat game! Nice animations and smooth gameplay. Couldn't put myself into scaring the new cats, they look into your yard so cute! So I got overwhelmed quickly. Good job!

arturasd 2017-12-06 20:30

Great theme execution, nice graphics, liked the concept, overall, well done!

paveldlouhy 2017-12-06 21:20

This game is as hard as it is cute! It looks like I will not manage to beat my record which is, ehm, 5 days. Thumbs up for attention to detail. 5 days? Let's try again! :)

pcmaster 2017-12-06 22:21

@paveldlouhy, thanks :) I personally scored 7 and my very supportive girlfriend 8 :) The more you have, the worse it is!

split82 2017-12-06 23:12

Nice feeling of the backyard! Good job.

idinakloppstock 2017-12-07 10:55

Nice game, at the first try I didn't know that you can scare away the cats on the fence and therefore I was quickly overrun. At the second try it worked better, it was fun! And cats are always the best choice! :)

amigopadilha 2017-12-07 11:11

Nice game, I got overwhelmed by cats! Very fun to play! Great job!

dlaha 2017-12-07 11:38

I love the sound effects. Very funny game.

failedstarfish 2017-12-07 13:54

Very fun game. There was a lot of cat poop, I should probably never have cats.

kutase 2017-12-07 19:37

Fun game. Graphics looks good!

cosmic-adventure-squad 2017-12-08 08:33

Loved it, got a good laugh out of it! Definitely got difficult a little too quickly though.

sungk 2017-12-08 15:30

This game *whisker*ed me away to a world of pain. *Cat* they all get along? Taking care of so many of them can lead to anyone's mental health *droppings* down. Experiencing all of this is making me want to *jump the fence* and become a dog person. I need to lie down, I'm not *feeding* so good. Oh, I'm just *kitten* around. The game is *cat-tastic* and I give the graphics nine out of *nine lives*. Ok, I'll get out right *meow*.

pcmaster 2017-12-08 16:27

@sungk! :rofl: Thank you *catty* much!

zax 2017-12-08 17:15

the graphic is great , i like it keep it up! and don't forget to check out my game too :)

ratbird 2017-12-08 18:44

Awww, cats. Its always good. And game mechanic good too

frozedon 2017-12-09 06:01

Wow, just wow. Well, got to 8 days. But, the real high score is stacking 3 cats on top of each other. I want to see if someone can do 4!

Anyway, awesome game. Thought it was pretty clever and funny.

louis-denizet 2017-12-09 10:06

Good use of the theme, it goes out of control pretty quickly and you can't go back! Well done anyway ;)

danielhart 2017-12-09 17:15

Lovely game, stacks up very quickly!

mgadrat 2017-12-09 22:42

I had much fun playing this game ! And even managed to make a cat pyramid :D The kittens are very cute. We had a similar idea, with chickens.

starlin 2017-12-10 22:04

I can't take care five cats in Day 5! :( so sad! Really fun to play with, also feel bad to get incoming cats away. Overall, love this game :D

frenk 2017-12-10 22:24

Very fun game guys! Loved trowing cats over the fence

araani 2017-12-11 05:26

So many cats! Good job!

lazard 2017-12-11 14:08

It's already difficult to have a real cat but having that much is juste impossible. Really nice game, the gameplay is fun !

lonewolfdev 2017-12-11 17:01

Hahaha really good game, love when you let all the cats in and turns all really "CATastrophic", if you know what I mean.

zgragselus 2017-12-11 20:40

Damn, I couldn't bear kicking incoming cats of the fence so I got swarmed quite quickly. The game has lovely graphics and audio, and the gameplay is fast-pacing and quite fun to play.

Fits the theme perfectly, so I can say just... Keep up the good work!

maybe 2017-12-12 00:20

I can see clearly the connection with the theme, really well thought. There could be a upgrade with a litter box or more food for the cats. The sound was really good and gave me a good feedback on what was happening all the time.

Overall fun game to play =)

Big thanks @maybe! Of course, food and other features were planned, but we had to CUT a lot in order to make it. I'm pretty proud of us being able to somehow focus on what turned out to be exactly what we could manage in the constrained time. Also investing almost 2 hours into sound was good, I'm certain now! :)

arron-fowler 2017-12-12 16:46

Quality, stressful and sort of fun. Made me think of cat ladies in a new light. So much poo!

zenkerdus 2017-12-12 23:28

Love it! Feel inspired to do a poop game too! Poop is great.

t8rh8r 2017-12-14 01:51

That pooping squat though! Pretty good realistic textures, especially for a ludum dare time frame.

The pacing is a bit fast. I never get a sense of success, which feels unfair and ultimately makes it a game about losing. This murders the fun factor. I feel like many games fell into a similar hole with this theme. I do think the features you had to cut for time's sake would have fixed this. So I won't hold it against you. It is good to see you were conscious of this pitfall even if you didn't have the time to implement around it.

Excellent work overall. It was very cute, effectively communicated what was going on to the player, and had a good level of polish.

jk5000 2017-12-14 18:37

The idea is simple and good, and it is easy to learn how to play. Both the sounds and graphics is really great. For me the game gets too difficult too fast, and I would have preferred a slower and more relaxed version of the game. But overall a well made LD game. Well done.

nabo369 2017-12-15 16:57

The Game pretty fun to play, the amound of poop i had to clean tho....

artcat 2017-12-17 02:10

This is a pretty solid entry, as solid as their doo-doos. Them turds are about 1/3 the size of their mass. Stupid cats! Pretty fun entry. I managed to get to day 6 being a manager for a bunch of simpleton kittens. These cats will never work for me!

Congrats on a finished entry! Good job!

ethan-kennerly 2017-12-18 01:13

When I cleaned up poop and flung two fighting cats apart I felt capable. If you continue to develop this game, at first I was confused what to do and what the goal was. I tried to fling a cat over the fence, but the cat didn't fly.

2017-12-19 16:04

I reviewed your funny game in my jam compilation : https://youtu.be/Z-H-WO1iqss?t=99 It's in french but you can ask for translation if needed :)

chem0pren 2017-12-19 20:21

Thanks for playing our game @satanos translate would be awesome :)

2017-12-19 22:18

Here it is : "As Les Nuls (famous french comedy show) said, cats are really lazy ass! At first you only have one in your garden, but soon several climb on the fence to invite themelves, and you do not hesitate to chase these unwanted guests, but every day one of them will join the party without asking you. These cats are not only happy to eat in one of the 3 bowls present in your backyard, they often find them fighting and also, to make big poops, without any shame. Of course it's up to you to separate them and clean up behind them. At the top of the screen 2 gauges, happiness and hygiene, if the first hits zero or if the 2nd is filled it's the end of the game. The rather natural animations of the cats accompanied by realistic meowing make it a little fun game, even if, after 5 days it becomes almost impossible to manage everything at the same time!"

chem0pren 2017-12-20 07:57

Thanks @satanos This is best review of our game so far :D

2017-12-20 13:30

@chem0pren You're welcome, congratulations for your work :)
