Cool game!
Great game!
Interesting idea, but game doesn't feel polished good enough
Really hard! Kidnapping cats should involved carboard boxes but witches works too ! i like the graphics
The movement controls are really slippery! This is a pretty cool game but I am having some issues running it, I could just be having a normal run and then the game just randomly force quits on me. It has happened four times now so I haven't been able to get a run that lasts that long :/. This game would be a lot better with just a bit of extra polish and those issues fixed!
Really cool little arcade game. Cats always makes games better. I didn't bother shooting on my first attempt since it was easier to dodge, but then I realised it restores health. It suddenly gets a bit ridiculous after a while though. eep.png
I support fellow alien dude in his attempt to clear earth from thos murderoues mosnters (cats).
Cool game, but lacks polish. The controls vere not enjoyable. It was cool that the spacecraft had acceleration and lots of inertia, but it did not feel nice for me. Also the projectiles were annoyingly slow, which made killing enemies somewhat unsatisfactory. However, there were excellent music, good graphics and good all around implementation on all aspects of the game. I liked this game, especially the enemy fighters were cool. I wish there would have been some end goal, like collecting 100 cats or collect as many cats as you can in 1 minute or something like that.
Oof I was having a lot of fun, I love Defender, but it crashed on me sadly :(. Good job regardless!
Had a lot of fun with it and really enjoyed the concept! I just couldn't get too far in any playthroughs without it crashing.
Nice! This was a really adorable game. I really liked the artstyle, it fits the gameplay well. While there was a couple collision points where I got stuck for a bit over all played really well and had a great time collecting cats!
This was fun to play! The inertial controls felt just right for an airship, even if it made combat a challenge. The objectives were immediately clear, and the concept was just the right amount of silly. What am I supposed to do with all these cats?? I need to stop and get some tuna or something ...
There seemed to be a height ceiling that didn't apply to enemies, so it might have used a little more polish, but it didn't really detract from the core gameplay. A solid entry!
(did some forearm exercises and i'm in pain, there might be spelling mistakes)
The game was fun and very easy to learn. Controls are simple and you can remember them at first glace. The art style is charming and fits the game. Could do with some polish and game juice. Beyond 60 cats, too many bullets lol. I don't think enemies should shoot offscreen. Also my game crashed for some reason, don't know why that happened. Also the music slaps.
Was a lot of fun and started getting crazy near the end. Audio set the tone very well and made me feel like I was playing an old school arcade game.
The only thing that felt super weird for me was the bounds at the top of the map. Felt like it stopped without any indication and sometimes the enemies would spawn right at the edge and was unable to be hit.
This was silly, crazy fun! I liked the graphics and the music a lot -great job on this! :D
UFO go brrrr, cats go prrrrr! awesome game! nice work!
@nikolaself @taikinaaa Happy you liked it, thanks for playing!
@witchgf Yeah, totally agree, jams definitely feel rushed more often than not especially when you can't allocate the amount of time you want to it. Thanks for playing!
@reikan Yeah i think we made it intentionally hard, like an old arcade game.
@scolondev Everyone is having force quit issues and we think we know what the problem is, the world is procgen as you move around, so it might be generating too far out too often.
@someone Agree there, cats make every game they're in better. We exponentially reduced the spawn timer by 3% but i forgot to cap it at a low level. The screenshot is so funny.
@asfdfdfd Praise be to the motherland!
@martta Understood, thanks for the feedback! An end goal would have been good, but in the old school arcade style, its a play until you lose game, we just didnt have time for leaderboards.
@fullheartgames @tappioca - More crashes, bummer. Happy you both liked it!
@bloodfin Thanks! Yeah our collision system is a bit wonky for sure.
@hawkin Oops, did I forgot to add a height ceiling to enemies? Thanks for playing! :)
@skvader-418 Dang more crashes, also thanks for playing, happy you liked it!
@augmotic Those darn top bounds, if we keep working on this, we'll fix that!
@chase-of-bass @wobbleblocks Thanks for playing, happy you enjoyed it!!
being healed by killing enemies is nice. i ended up bumping into some things because i thought they were only background elements
Really enjoyed this game. The witches on broomsticks was a really nice touch and I appreciated the option to use a controller. When you die the beam sound effect seemed to kept looping for me?
Quite an interesting small arcade game. Nice job.
One of my favourite bits was when you come across a STACK of cats, just waiting to be sucked up and captured :D Only downside with initial gameplay is (could be RNG based) that I could often stay quite low in the sky and avoid all the enemies. If they were able to shoot downwards too, it coulda made it more challenging. Good scope for a jam too, I could learn a thing or two!
I got to 81 cats, died, pressed escape, and kept stealing cats!
@honest-dan ... scope? What's that?
