Very fun and nice casual game i had a lot of fun solving the puzzles. Also very cute cats, overall love it !

drgcandle 2024-04-16 05:00

Ah, this game is insanely cute! How did you whip up such an adorable thing in no time? It's totally winning me over! I'd pay good money for your GIFs as reaction packs!

ulziton 2024-04-16 08:06

Awsome visual and smooth gameplay, well done

2024-04-16 08:25

wonderful and fun to play withhhh

charl-v 2024-04-16 08:43

No way!! Amazing!

sparkydoc07 2024-04-16 08:48

Wonderful game!

I appreciate the twist on the summoning theme (i.e. thanks for not making another ghost platformer)! The gameplay is simple, artstyle is adorable, and mechanics are brilliant. Also, I would like to appreciate the fact that you gave me an option to switch between perspective and orthographic.

A few things I would have really appreciated, 1) That the summoning circles be controllable with keyboard input like WASD 2) That the camera be free to turn/spin around the game field 3) Some form or tutorial or intro screen, since I didn't understand how to move the summoning circle until I read the game's description from the ldjam website. Ideally, a game should have all relevant info in the game itself

You've earned yourself a top score. Enjoy!

P.S. the ldjam website allows you to upload a WebGL build directly on the game page!

Great game. I really like how it plays. Would be great for a tablet or cellphone. Dragging your finger along while solving a cat puzzle. Had fun with this and I like how it looks too!

misoukun 2024-04-16 08:50

So lovely. It take me a few times to find out what to do at first. But then, I can no longer stop to finish all levels.

alecto 2024-04-16 08:51

The visuals are really nice but I am lost as to what I am supposed to do.

xun 2024-04-16 08:54

Amazing!Cats are super cute, and I'm really into the art style. The music is incredibly soothing, and the puzzles are so addicting!

inkweeper 2024-04-16 09:07

Wonderfulgraphics, audio and level design!

shardykins 2024-04-16 10:26

Puuuurfect little game, wonderful to play with a really tight loop and a cool set of mechanics that build on each other naturally. I got through all 20 levels while I should've been working.

bittripbrit 2024-04-16 10:29

Incredibly fun puzzle game, really good mechanics and challenging levels.

pralista 2024-04-16 11:15

Hi everyone, thanks for your Paw-some comment & feedbacks! Glad that you're having fun with our little paw-zle game. We'll take notes to your feedbacks and see what we can do to make this game better :smiley_cat:

promzona 2024-04-16 11:26

Suuuper cute game. Nice puzzles, it was quite enjoyable experience

Overall a really good game - Gave a nice jam!

manabreak 2024-04-16 12:13

Very cute! I also like the puzzles. The first few got me thinking that this would be a really simple puzzle game, but when you introduced the combinations, I was proven wrong. Very nice job!

afk-shark 2024-04-16 12:58

Oh, this is such an insanely cute game! Very pleasant in gameplay and visual <3

codechomper 2024-04-16 13:54

I like the chill nature of this summoning game. Completing the puzzles were challenging but doable. Also the controls were intuitive and I was playing right away. Nice one, congratulations!

frankiewhispers 2024-04-16 14:11

Great work! relaxing and it got challenging as you progressed

The art style is SO CUTE and the gameplay is a fun challenge! I am really impressed by the extra polish on things like the score sliding in/out between levels, the little idle animation (and bloop sound!!!) on the animals, the floating title card in the menu, and the orthographic / perspective switch. The music choice was perfect, too :D

ahistyap 2024-04-17 03:45

As expected from the developer of Am I Your Type! Adorable and fun game :heart: Man, that music too :heart: :heart:

tstapely07 2024-04-17 08:32

So so cute! Very well polished too, I loved it!

mephistase 2024-04-17 08:57

Anime cats invocation! Huge amount of content for a beautiful and really well crafted game ! The possibility to rewrite path took me by surprise by how good it is.

Small bug: you can erase invocation circles by combining them and then reversing.

macibacsi56 2024-04-17 10:51

Wow, this is amazing! Good job, congratulations! :)

2024-04-17 14:58

I found this game was cutee😍! I like the graphics, the sketch, the sound effect, and the animation of this game. This is a game that I would play on my free time when I'm bored. But I was kinda confused to differentiate the dog and the cat, because they look pretty similar🤔.

nardandas 2024-04-18 06:24

Really cute little puzzle game! I share the issues with differentiating the dog and cat, especially their circles, but that's fairly small. I really liked the chill mood!

irex 2024-04-18 06:26

Really liked this game ! Super cute and relaxing but with some challenge

jiri-hysek 2024-04-18 06:37

Wow, it looks paw-some indeed! The graphics are super cute, there are even various biomes! Audio is spot on, and I don't even know how much content there is because it's a lot! It doesn't even feel like a jam game, you could publish it on mobile platforms right away :) Great work!

meepster 2024-04-18 06:41

Wow this is a really good submission!

Really loved the opening to the game.

Gameplay was well explained and very addicting.

Art style and sound design were absolutely charming!

Also cool to see another fellow puzzle game about summoning cute animals :)

Well done!

the-neon-shark 2024-04-18 06:44

Phenomenal polish. Game plays smoothly and is dripping with personality. Very well made. I'd appreciate an undo button or a faster reset cycle, but otherwise it's perfect!

martenj 2024-04-18 06:52

Nice! First I thought, now I can create a DoggoCat but okay Im not allowed to combine them. Really lovely art style and nice level switch animation!

momotiktik 2024-04-18 06:54

Such a cute little game, what can I say, I'm a sucker for kitties and doggies! :) I love the art style and music is also very relaxing, after 15th puzzle the difficulty ramped up quite steeply :D really nice work, I enjoyed it!

daandruff 2024-04-18 07:42

When you start out with a darn theme-song, you know it's going to be good! Awesome game. I loved the puzzles and would love to have this as a phone game while killing time. Really nicely done!

ffenril 2024-04-18 11:50

Your game starts with its own theme song? How??? 🤯

It is so well polished, so cute, sounds great, and fun! Really, great job!

pralista 2024-04-19 05:28

Thank you everyone for the kind and paw-sitive feedbacks! Didn't expect to get this much appreciation :smile_cat:

anifan-gelati 2024-04-19 17:54

I rate all cat games. And they're all beautiful. Yours is no exception)

momod 2024-04-19 19:32

Wow your game is stunning !! the art style is so cute, and the little animation at the beginning is really cool too ! Great job ! :D

asfdfdfd 2024-04-19 19:56

Incredible game even without taking 48h into account! Great entry!

nsadie 2024-04-19 19:59

Wow I really loved this! Very cute art style, but I also really liked the puzzles! One of my favorites so far!

nabil-shelim 2024-04-19 20:44

Why is this so CUTE :cat:! Congrats to the team for such an amazing and well polished game. I would love to play this on my phone.

metablep 2024-04-19 23:34

_Paw-some_ game, cute art and relaxing music. What's more impressive (to me personally) is that you made it with `Construct` in such an incredible quality. My only wish was being able to undo the circle merging instead of resetting the entire level (unless it's already _paw-ssible_ and I just couldn't figure out how). Otherwise, really well done. Props to your team :smiley_cat:

braktheman 2024-04-20 19:50

Well crafted puzzles, good vibes, nice sound design. Couldn't quite finish it had to tap out at stage 17 but I really appreciated the difficulty curve even though I didn't complete the game.

Only small criticisms would be some sort of way to undo previous moves (unless there was one I just couldn't find) and making it easier to differentiate the circles for cats and dogs. These are just small nitpicks though. The game was fantastic.

chybby 2024-04-21 15:09

Really cute and fun! Really clever idea to combine the different colours! Overall really polished entry - I liked how the level floated in when loading. One complaint is that I found it difficult to tell which summoning circle corresponded to which animal on the side.

kanity 2024-04-22 18:47

Song! Music! What the heck, I didn't expect to be blown away so quickly xD Intro is fantastic!

And THIS

THIS! Too cute!!

And the puzzle levels visuals are so polished, everything just looks so perfect and complete, very impressive +_+

neontropics 2024-04-24 20:33

Really good graphics and general vibe! Also props for the music, this is the first entry with vocals I've played hah.

The puzzle gameplay was good and clever - I didn't beat all the levels as I'm just a bit too impatient in general for lots of these games, but what I played was very fun.

prepe 2024-04-30 18:02

3 seconds in an I am blown away already. Are you from a game company, because the quality is through the roof. The only thing that was anoying me was that the reset animation. Took a bit to long for my taste, but other than that great work.

pralista 2024-08-01 18:37
