Very cute game! I cleared all stage.
what an adorable (and beautiful) game! Very impressed by the graphics and gameplay! The chopping up of the cat to show segments was slightly creepy though but I enjoyed it haha
Very cool little game, I don't see how it fits the theme tho.
Small but interesting puzzle! Nice job!
Art was very nice, and the puzzles mixed two classic genres of puzzle games wonderfully, but I can't really see the theme.
Good aesthetic and mecanics.
I would have liked more levels, harder, most of them fells like a tutorial (very easy), then there are just 2 or 3 that are somewhat challenging.
transision between levels could be faster too.
Otherwise it's a good entry.
I like the game and it really feels like something you'd find on the real app/play store. The art really fit together with the yarn balls as the obstacles for the cat and so forth.
I agree that the end-of-level animation was a bit slow because I already know from the counter if I have enough segments or not, so I don't want to spend time re-counting.
@thetatautau @gentel We are glad you liked the game, the levels are mostly tutorials, since we run out of time, but the idea was to create more challenging ones. About the transition speed and counter, you are right, maybe is not the best idea to have it that slow, if you already know you won.
Thanks for the feedback, is very useful!
@notekri @edshotmachine Thanks for playing, the idea for the theme is that you are "using" your player's (cat) body parts to unlock new levels, so technically your life is currency... But yeah, we kinda skipped over the theme a little bit :wink:
@avi Thanks for playing, it was never intended to look creepy... but yeah, we need to improve it :smile:
I really like the minimalistic look nice job @majana2. First I thought that numbers meant how much of moves you have and then I failed one level and figured out that you need to use all the moves. Then it clicked and it gave whole another dimension to puzzle solving. Nice job guys @engyne and @majana2
Really cool mechanics. Even if you fail once, or don't know what something is doing, you get it the next time. This is the core of a good "tutorial" (even though it did not feel like tutorial). Cool art as well!
Very polished art and aesthetics, good job! The puzzles were pretty straight forward but interesting. The controls on pc were a little bit clunky, but that's to be expected for a port. Too bad the audio didn't make it into the final product, would've helped the game a lot! Nonetheless a solid entry
What a flexible cat! :scream_cat: Cute art! I love the concept and the puzzles are really nice. Amazing! :ok_hand:
This cat is hella cute :D If it gets to blink and miau once in a while, I think it could be even cuter. I like the way you teach the player. Props for that.
@gecco-xyz Thanks! The blinking eyes idea was there, but time didn't allow it sadly... :confused: Maybe if we manage to update it
I always try to play all games with cats. And this one is really very adorable. Great graphics.
A nice take on the theme and great graphics
Cute graphics, basic gameplay. All the puzzles (Except the final level) were pretty basic (No offense I know how hard it is to come up with interesting puzzles in one of these is) But the base could allow for something really interesting. Also, a rewind 1 turn button would be helpful when puzzles got really different.
I was starting to feel like it was too easy, but thankfully, the difficulty ramps up a little; in fact, some of the levels actually took me a few attempts. The difficulty progression is pretty well done and the game is engaging. The graphics are also really nice, and that stretchy cat is cute! All around, nice entry!
What a cool puzzle! The game suffered a little from lack of sfx / music but it was very enjoyable nonetheless. I would have liked some more challenging puzzles :). The effect after you finish a level was very cool but perhaps it could be a little faster. Graphics are super cute!
It so adorable!!! It was fun despite not having music. I actually spent a few minutes trying to see if my speakers were working correctly ahaha. Cute GAME!!!
Awesome puzzle! Really cute graphics! I enjoyed it alot :)
Nice. Pretty many levels. Cute graphics. I hope you'll work on this after the jam and ship it, I think it has some potential :)
Great art. I missed an undo key, felt that the end level was too long and levels in general were straightforward, except for 1 or 2 at the end were you can see that there may be potential here. The best levels were where I needed to move the cat a couple of moves to use it as barrier to push the obstacles to somewhere specific. Apart from that the art is great! Keep working!
Very cute, this would great as a mobile game!
Had a lot of fun with this one, it's definitely something I'd pick up on my phone to play whilst commuting or something like that. :) +1 for the suggestion of an undo button - I found I'd occasionally hit a bug where the cat couldn't move in a certain direction; undo would have helped alleviate that on some of the longer levels and would help with accidental double presses.
@nate-wec @xmpt-luke The undo button was definitely something planned, but time kinda killed it :confused: Actually, the logic for it is there, so if time allows it we could just implement it...
Great concept and visuals, unfortunately, there isn't any sound. However, I enjoyed my playthrough!
Finished! I love the concepts, and the puzzle mechanics were simple but worked really well. You could easily make many more levels out of this and release it as paid or with ads.
Kinda weird that you need parts of your cat chopped up to get to the next level... but it looks like the cat's okay with it.
I do wish it had audio (stretching and moving sfx and music would add tons more charm), but it's a really solid entry and I wish you guys the best!
I really liked this game, I could see it being made into a lovely little "burn time" game on mobile phones. With variations in cats (decided by the player) and larger, more intense levels :).
@josh-powlison Thank you so much for the nice comment! :smile:
Fun game, looks great and was a good challenge.
Cute small game. I enjoyed the graphics and the difficulty progression. Swiping the obstacles felt a little strange on the web version but I'm sure it feels natural on mobile. I couldn't see the link with the theme. Congrats for your entry!
I don't know why people aren't playing this game. It looks nice and it's very fun!
Yoooo the last two puzzles were hype! You had hinted to it briefly before but the idea of blocking the slidables with your body becoming part of the puzzle is *incredibly* interesting of a mechanic, and I can see some really cool (and monstrously difficult) puzzles coming out of that. There's quite a bit of straightforward warmup puzzles here, but that might just be due to it being a LD game and you wanting everyone to finish. I also do wish there was a step-undo button, rather than just a global restart. Besides that though, you have a very cute exterior hiding tons of potential for great, *hard* puzzles. Good stuff.
