Cute game! It only took me 2 lives to figure out how to play (I didn't read the instructions beforehand), so it's very intuitive. I love the graphics, and the music fits well. I especially liked that you included a sleep scene at the end of the day cycle. The bouncy cars were funny too. Sometimes if I walked too close to the spiked balls it would count as a hit, but it didn't look like I touched it. Overall great job!!
nice, same thing as the previous toke a bit of time to figure out the controls.
Really solid game. The art is really nice, games are simple and fun, and the sleep sections offer a nice break. Turning around with the player has a bit of offset and not perfect. Some games simply become impossible at later stages. There's also not enough warning of what to do in the incoming challenge. Overall, great game!

This was pretty nice. I like the PICO-8 style! The theme was pretty simple, but it works well. I loved when the cat would sleep, that was a pretty funny addition. Unfortunately I wasn't a huge fan of the gameplay. The controls were a bit too floaty for my style, and the difficulty scaling after a certain point made it impossible to get any further. As far as a concept for an arcade game goes, this one is really cool and with some polish (and heavily leaning into the )this could actually be a decently fun turn-off-your-brain game.

Love the style! It's a nice jam entry!
Great twist on the theme. It is also nice to see some PICO-8 games made for the JAM. Some small suggestions: the physics feels very much like ice. This is good for a ice level but a bit strange on grass. 9 levels is maybe a bit long and repetitive. With 9 lives you could maybe have increased the difficulty a bit more clearly based on how well players are doing. the pauses between levels could maybe be shortened based on how far you are with finishing levels to hype up the speed of the game even more. The hitbox of the player felt bigger then the looked like (but that is just wat is velt like and also a limitation of PICO-8) Overall a really nice game, simple enjoyable, nice sprites nice musics with nice small minigames.
Interesting to have new music for each minigame. You don't usually see that. The sleeping minigame was unexpected & kinda cute. The controls for some games felt a bit awkward, but it was fine overall.
I like this game style! it returns me into my childhood, thank you!

Fun! I'm loving the mini games approach to this jam. Presentation is top notch - different music for each level really makes the game full big, lots of good art, and I live the sleeping scene. Physics are a little slick, but it's still fun. Nicely done!
I had to spend couple seconds before I could understand how to play the game. But after that, I could survive long enough until I got 13 score.

Lovely little game, the graphics are beautifully done as is the audio! I found it a bit too easy and let myself die to see what it would happen. Very nice overall
Got ran over by a truck in the first seconds i knew i'd love the game

Love the warioware style type of game. Very nicely done!
I loved this! Gotta love Kitty Cats, and I'm always a fan of any Pico games. I had some weird issues with the collisions, but otherwise it was a blast!

Super cute entry :cat: I loved that the levels get more difficult over time, and the bouncing cars really made me laugh :laughing:
Great entry, congratulations

Cute game! Like the graphics, music. The movement feels a bit too slippery for me and sometimes the hitbox seems to be a bit too big, but was fun to play!
Oh, the cat is so charming! And I like the sound of the game. It's challenging at first but then you get used to it and the game just gives you more challenge. No bugs, no troubles. Thanks!
This is one of the most impressive PICO-8 game's I have ever seen. You really outdid yourself with the artwork! Everything is so well made, and all the minigames are easy to understand. Furthermore, the sleepy time!!! Thank you so much for the little bit of downtime! It really goes a long way.
I recorded myself playing so you can get extra feedback: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Q8Q3zwbGjc
@100th-coin Thank you so much for recording yourself playing and for the kind words!
Reminds me of Pureya! ^^ Godd job. I love a game inmediately if there are cats hahaha
First playthrough, I got a score of... 9 😅 Nice game!
@100th-coin thank you so much for the playthrough video! You definitely got further than I did lol

Game is super cute! Minigames were a bit repetitive after a while, and a couple of them were way more difficult than the others (roller+ball and ninjas). Loved the sleeping scene; that was a really sweet addition! Art and visuals are very good. Controls feel a bit unresponsive for some of the minigames. Overall very good work and great amount of polish! Well done.
I enjoyed the game. The graphics and sound are so good! I liked the survive aspect, and the level design! The napping situation was good to let the player rest a little, nice game flow!
Cute and fun game. Everyone knows that cats have 9 lives, but mine had all 16!
Great visuals and soundtrack. A bit repetitive after a while but fun to play anyways.

Lovely pico 8 game! I think I rarely saw ones that looked this good ✨
The concept is simple and well executed. I liked the nap times to make a bit of breaks between increased difficulty levels. Made it only to 12 but had fun anyway!

This was just absolutely fantastic! Short and sweet! I loved the art work and music, and the player controller felt very tight and responsive. Great entry!

Really nice minigame collection! Very juicy as well, I love the transitions and the hit animations. The different music tracks for the minigames were a nice touch as well, I enjoyed not having the same loop on repeat. The cat graphic was very cute and I loved the different backgrounds on every minigame too l.
I did think the controls were a little bit finicky - especially playing on mobile, I would have loved x or o to be jump rather than up. I did also wonder if some of the minigames were impossible once the difficulty ramped up? Maybe I just need to get good 😁
Really nice entry!

What a blast! Some really beautiful art with instantly understandable gameplay! Plus a cute cat and a sweet little nap!; Thanks for this one!
Cute art style, and good implementation of the theme and the gameplay is fun. Good job! But to be honest: I found the music a bit annoying. :-(
Very nice implementation of the mini-game format. I especially liked how the rocks minigame gives you a heads up when one is about to fall.
