I've been following you on the GameDevLeague Discord so it's nice to see your game get finished. It definately fits the theme! It's hard as heck though and a bit distressing since you've got cats dying of hunger and thirst all around you.

I like the way you implemented the hunger and thirst meters.

My biggest complaint comes down to realism; cats typically feed and water themselves from sources you provide, rather than being handfed and hand watered. I'd suggest you switch it around and have the player try to keep bowls full instead of cats full. That's just my idea though.

All in all I think you did a decent job for a compo game and I gave you an okay rating.

This is the hardest game I've played so far

@MoseGames Yeah, I guess i made it too hard, but thanks for your feedback :)

nice work! I liked the simple pixel art cats. Showing an indicator when a cat is getting thirsty is a nice UI touch that helped me know where i should put my resources. Also, quite an awesome use of the theme! Good work :)

Puh, that was tough...

Very hard game. I ended up running out of food before anyone adopted any cats though. Not sure what I could have done differently.

Tough to play but fits the theme perfectly. Some music would be nice but great job for a 14 hour compo!

Good god, all the cats are dying and theres nothing I can do because they keep multiplying ;_;

I guess this would classify as a clicker game of sorts? I quite liked it though, despite the prospect of a house full of dead cats..

@papacheech @giborn @logicon211 @gris @profan Thank you guys so much for your feedback, you cant imagine how much it helps me. I know I made it tough, i was running out of time and i set some values wrong so it got this hard.

yes

There's not much consequence for overfeeding them... but perhaps that wouldn't be fun :slight_smile: (I mean: I can see that the amount of food goes down, but even that refuses to subtract if the red bar is full-up.)

Not entirely sure, but I think this _might_ be the first time I've seen anyone added difficulty-levels to their Compo-entry. Nice! :slight_smile: (Although it's understandable not a lot of people do this...)

First jam and also finished within only slightly more than a quarter of the time = Impressive!

Nice game! Would you return me a favour and my game? :)
