Game gets a bit hectic once you have a number of cats showing up, especially with the movement speed. That said, i believe that was the mood you were going for! Good job!

The game is pretty nice.
I noticed quite a few bugs (or intentional features not sure) : the "complete" text getting stuck to gertrudes, cats entering into other cats and the movement being blocked for a little while.
The music and the sound effect are pretty discrete and scare but there nice. I like Gertrudes' face, unfortunatly we can't see it while playing :P.
You put music and sound effects which is cool. I'm getting the feel you wan't the game to be fast paced and crazy so maybe next time to get that effect try putting a faster music in the background so it matches the intended mood more. Also feeback is important in a game, a sound effect when a task is completed could have be nice too.
The movement feels a bit weird, especially since you start slow and then go faster and faster when the map is quite small.
Overall it was a fun little game, cheers !
@eerongal That's how the game gets harder, the amount of the cats in the end :D Thanks for playing and rating!
@ashtrail Your analysis is awesome, thank you for the bug catching, unfortunatelly I didn't had enough time in the end to fix the bugs because of the deadline; but you got the spirit of the game, and that's what matters :D Thank you very much for playing and rating :)
I really enjoy mood of this game! That moment when you are surrounded with cat noises everywhere, desperately clinging for your last bits of sanity, it made my day! Progress bars were glitching sometimes, looping from "complete" to zero over and over again, but your choice of theme sort of makes it a feature rather then a bug.
Thank you @killnaprimer! The high amount of cats is proposital to drive the player crazy, you got the mood :D
The movement was a bit too wonky without a consistent speed, but this was still fun. Those cats will haunt my dreams. Good job!
Nice game! I actually liked the movement. It's true it was a bit weird at first, but then you can drift with Gertrudes. We also did a Crazy Cat Lady Game, but for the jam :upside_down:
The tune was catchy :) The movement was a bit odd but its no worse than when I made my first 3d game in unity for an LD haha. Keep practicing and you'll get better. The audio was spot on and I liked the concept of the game. Congrats on your first LD!
Pretty cool idea and nicely done! the controls are a bit annoying and it is easy to get stuck in the borders collider but the game's feel balances this out ;)
I found the music really enjoyable to the mood. Cheery enough at first, and getting more annoying as the game went on and the cats become more demanding
FYI. This was almost my future, almost moved in to a house that would have made 4 cats in the house!
@merrol That's all about drifting old ladies around :D Thanks for your comment!
@kunonooni Yes, that was also my first 3D game from the scratch, it's not that easy compared to Unity 2D Physics, I struggled a lot hahahaha thanks for your comment!
@raphael-huot Awesome, hope you liked :D Thanks!
@masterkrepta The music was the last thing I did, it was kinda rushy because I had not enough time to finish it, but I tried my best. Hope you didn't get crazy with your cats :p
I was about to lose my sanity, then the game-over message came. This is nice, I like this interpretation of the theme. I am not a fan of the controls but they are not that bad. The first time I saw the cats intersecting, I thought it was the effect of losing sanity :D Good Work.
Just wanted to say that I fell in love with the model as seen on the first print screen. Gertrudes <3
...
Sometimes I take care of a cat but it doesn't go away. And is it impossible to perform the same action more than once at a rowwhen there are multiple cats on the same spot?
The cat models were also alright and I appreciate the old cat lady take on the theme. Keep improving your work. ^-^
Granny helped 15 cats before she lost her mind. I like the concept but the controls make the game very difficult. I felt like Granny-tank who needed to rev up her engine before she could get moving. Also in the webGL version the game doesn't properly restart when I press the restart button. The Gertrude model is fantastic though!
I think the game was good, I personally thought it was slow paced and the controls were a bit jerky, otherwise good entry!
@yetman Well, I aggree that the controls aren't that good, but the game isn't supposed to be easy too :p Thanks for playing!!!
@nathalia-hohl Thanks Nathalia! It took a lot of work to make her model, if you want, you can download the source code, there's an .FBX of the Gertrudes model :D Thanks for playing!!!
@mathijs750 The granny tank hahahha I lol'ed !!! Thanks for playing!
@owen-davies Thank you!!!
I enjoyed the game, getting Gertrude to move correctly was difficult, but the overall concept was fun. I did enjoy how the game got more difficult as the time went on. Quite a good first Unity 3D game and they are VERY different than 2D. :)
