Love this game! Really good take on the theme. My only suggestion is that the attack could be mapped to a mouse click or something else (Might be easier when using WASD). Graphics were really impressive

I liked the artwork on the selection screen, though the in-game graphics could use some sprucing up. The idea fits well with the theme and is quite amusing. Well done on programming in AI, though the characters could be more balanced (Astrocat blasts everyone into outer space!). It's difficult to tell when some characters use their special abilities, so some visual feedback would be helpful - perhaps a character could glow when their ability is in effect. It would be great to see the introduction of local co-op in a future build.

I wanted to try and play this game, but the download for mac did not work. Could you fix that?

I must admit I am quite disappointed. I loved the character selection screen art. And then, the game appears and there is nothing like the previous screen. Moreover, the in-game graphics lack of clarity. You could really improve the game just by reskinning it! Anyway, a jam is always a challenge and you passed it. Well done!

@djeycreations Hey thanks for playing! I get your upset at the in-game graphics, I feel if we were to remake it or continue on we'd definitely reskin the players and probably resize them for greater clarity. Thank you for the feed back and I'm glad you gave it a try :smile: //Fletch

@ametentia The cats are awesome. I wish you'll be able to use them as in-game player characters!

@joshuc Hey sorry about the issue, thanks for bringing it to our attention. We'll look at trying to fix the mac version. For now we're going to remove the download link and have another look at building it to work without fuss. //fletch

@joshuc Hey, I think I have fixed the macOS build now and have uploaded the new .app. If you are willing to give it a go that would be great as we don't really have any other way to test the macOS version. Thanks -- James

Thanks for fixing the macOS build! I found it very fun, and the idea was very innovative. The game looked polished, and it looked like a game I would play in my free time.

Wow the art are greats! Thats a shame the in-play arent as good, thats why I only put 4.5 in graphics, anyway, I love the ideas of special move, and I had fun, good job guys, this is a nice entry !

Funny game ! The game parts are too short for listen a music ^^

Interesting case study. I was completely convinced I would find a graphically interesting game from the thumbnail, and the only screenshot here, showing the only art that the game has that is actual art. But the game graphics and mechanics are very rough instead and fairly simple as well. This game sells itself well thanks to the thumbnail, but I found it quite shallow to play it.

Really like the art style!
