Cool game, graphics were really nice. Gameplaywise it was tempting to just hold shift down, making me the player ovepowered, however it got harder after a couple of minutes. Nice entry!

This was great fun and very polished. I loved the theme too, very good job!
Love to see that someone else also did a shmup. :) I was very impressed with the art and sound effects. Gameplay was pretty full-featured for what you were trying to do, and I though enemy movement looked very good.
For the keyboard controls, it would be nicer to be able to shoot etc with Z and X, so I could have one hand on movement with arrow keys and another handling other actions. For the movement itself, I think it was a little too fast. I couldn't tell if it was a high accel up to your top speed or just linear movement, but in either case a bit more noticeable accel when starting movement would make it feel a lot more natural / nicer.
I really liked you game! The cats were extremely cute with their meows. I was transported into a very happy mood listening to the soundtrack as well. It was nice the game started out easy to give time to learn to play.
Cute game! I liked the art and concept of cats invading your dreams. For me, the lead synth in the music got a bit tedious, and the percussion and harmony did not feel dreamy. I think getting rid of the drums might be a good step in that direction, as well as going for a more ambient feel. Having a melody made the music seem a bit invasive as I focused on getting the cats to quiet down. Nice entry!
What a tremendously charming and fun game, with an adorable concept! I slept until 5:46. After a few levels, I just held the fire button down, and I was firing at a crazy fast rate by the end, so fast that my success or failure on any level was probably entirely random. Very fun, and very well done, with good sounds, graphics, and gameplay.
What a fun theme for a schmup! The cat graphics and sound effects were very charming. Some simple animations would have been a nice addition
I like how the increasing difficulty is balanced against the power ups you collect, where collecting enough of the rate of fire power-ups you'd actually stand a chance against the cat onslaught. Very fun, nice job!
Classic mechanics with a cute twist. I like the graphics and theme of this. I would agree with previous comments that the addition of some animations, likely cut for time, would have pushed this up. Overall I think this is a solid entry that you can be proud of, nice work!
Charming game! Controls are tight, graphics are lovely, sounds and cute. It's a little awkward holding left shift to shoot, though I imagine using a controller will fix that.
Nice game, I liked that we are only putting the cats to sleep! When I launched the game it was in a very small window, I am not sure if that is on my end but the game was still playable.
The cat patterns worked well, mostly rushing at the left then circling back around. It also gets really hard very quick, which needs all the powerups possible. Good work on this!
I love the interpretation of the theme! The struggle for trying to sleep in is real. I was a little disappointed that it ended up being a pretty standard shmup and didn't necessarily feel like trying to sleep. But it's a pretty solid entry. Great graphics, sfx, and music. Congrats on the game!
I clicked on this because it sort of reminded me of the Little Nemo comics for some reason. What a delightful little shoot-em-up! The game works really well, no bugs and the controls are smooth. I thought the difficulty ramped up at a good pace too. It did get a little easy once I figured out you could just hold shift and zig-zag up and down -- I made it to about wave 20 before I decided I'd had enough. All of the character designs and the music are really charming and fun! I was impressed with the amount of polish. Nice job on this.
Fun game , like the art and powers. Do think the game is a little to hard ( for me ) .
Haha this game is adorable, and lots of fun! Controls felt nice and responsive, and the difficulty ramped up well. It was a bit hard to see the power ups among all the chaos.
Really fun game, love the music! (survived for 6 mins...THAT WAS A LOT OF CATS LOL)
Lovely game, really enjoyed the sound track and gameplay :D
Great graphics, nice soundtrack. Super fun gameplay! First playthrough I barely survived to 5 am. Second try I got a ton of powerups and basically became a god of cat toys, shooting like a billion cat toys per second, and easily got to 8am where I stopped :D. I can confirm the story of the game is very accurate, my cat always likes to wake me up at like 5 am begging for food :). Great job making the game!
