Loved the sound effects. Wanted to see what happens if you keep breeding hundreds of cats and you actually covered that eventuality. Like the link to the theme. If I were to suggest improvements it would be that the collision on the main character should be essentially the bottom half of their body and the bathroom floor put on the correct layer (the cats disappear underneath at the moment).
Allright, I'm a crazy cat man! I like it! Sound and graphics is really nice. Like the idea also, even though having that many cats is cwayzzyyy! 8-) My hiscore: Cats=501, Score=8243. There is some bug/feature that makes you go through walls sometimes. I also got stuck in the "bottom" om the house wall, could not get out. Was "glued" down. Is there a way to restart the game, wo reloading the whole thing? Btw "kissa" means "to pee" in Swedish. Quite fitting I guess. =)
Mmmmmau. I hope this is what I'll be doing in my retiremet.
Art style and sounds are charming. Fun while you can manage the cats. Good Job.
loool The sound effects are funny!
I've spent some time trying to figure the mechanics, a tutorial at the beggining should be great. I've liked the art too!
Good entry! :D
Love the art and sounds, nicely done!
Great idea, love the graphics and it looks fun. Needs more instructions though. Why do the cats die even when there's food on the floor?
I like the art, and with some adjustments and more animations, I think it would be really nice and stylistic. I didn't really like the movement, I got stuck a lot in the corners, and a felt like I was glued to walls at time - I'm not sure if this was intentional. Pretty fun idea though, and good for a jam game, well done!
I like the old man grumbles. :) I had trouble getting my cats to breed, but my house had turned into a giant bowl of pet food by the end.
@howardcs There seems to be bug at the moment that cats try to go to destination where the food deviated from instead of the actual food location. They do eat the food if they happen to cross over it however. Have to fix it at some point. @rixium I think the getting stuck problem deviates from box collider, circle collider might have been better option to avoid getting stuck.
kept just spamming food all over the place randomly.. looks like that works. The art is interesting and kind of nice
You always got me with cats! :D Really nice graphics and funny soundeffects. Sadly i can't manage so many cats, even with food on the floor. :(
Well, that was a weird experience, but hey, cats!
Nice game.
Miu mau. One of my cats died DDDD:
I'm a bit confused by this game honestly.
Firstly I start with two cats with F next tot hem, I ASSUME this meant Female. So I didn't really expect to get more cats. And it would turn out I'd be right as both cats refused to eat anything.
So, I try again. Again two F cats. This time however one DOES eat and promptly spits out two kittens. OK so I guess they're pregnant when the old man takes them home? Anyway. This turns out to be the one time any cat WILL eat. Food is lying around all over but they just WANT TO DIE!
Ah I see you mentioning above about the deviation bug. I guess thats this.
The sound effects were amusing however and you have what should be a fun little concept if you stamp out the deviation bug.
133 cats!
It got a bit hard in the end or rather it felt like there wasn't much I could do to be a better cat hoarder.
In principal, in the beginning you have too much food so it is hard to know what the purr-pos is. The cats are generally happy and there's not that much to do. Where the food ends up while throwing it felt a bit random and perhaps it would have been a better feeling if the food was actually thrown a bit further out from the character.
As the cats amassed I still had the same delay between feeding so there wasn't so much I could have done before or while things were getting all cat. So I think the game would benefit from removing the restriction on time between feedings but have re-up stations somewhere so you have conflicting objectives of feeding everyone and refilling what you carry with you.
How many cats until the game explodes?
@juri The F was supposed to be food and on the other side of the food meter there should have been the traditional male and female signs. Alas we didn't have enough time to make the upgrades so the meter is pretty bland...
@local-minimum Yeah, I realized that the players would just spam the food and the cats would hardly ever meet each other. I could have improved that male cats would have chased female cats down but didn't think about it during the development. Maybe next time we'll have better ai :) (btw, we were planning on the food delivery system but had to cut it out)
@davi Currently there's hard limit of 500 cats where the game calls it quits (otherwise the frame rate drops too much and well...)
The position where the food spawns is a bit too random and the game is very confusing at first. A button to restart the game would have been nice too. Overall a amusing little game. **5/5 stars in the category weirdness**
