A game about cats is always a safe bet 😀

Apart from the bugs that could be abused to win levels easily, this was really fun game to play.

I like to break this game, and like jumpads. Very cool art of cats!

Hi mate, the game concept is cool but a bit hard to understand for me, it's really weird to see but really cool ! So might be a tad too confusing but overall good rating !

Very nice. I feel like most levels I sort of just shoved my cat into the boxes or bounced into them from the green things rather than picking them up. Wish there was a way to merge cats

This is ingenious! You got a lot of mechanics for 2-3 day game. I was enjoying (and glitching haha) at level 3... until the game suddenly got reset?! Not sure if I hit `R` button or sth. I particularly like physics elements and this is full of it / and even 3d xD

I like the puzzle elements a lot. The scope of your game is big. You did a good job in this short amount of time but the big scope makes it impossible to cover many edge cases / thus the glitches. I'd play more later on, GJ!

EDIT: will certainly check more levels later - now saw description that I could skip sth if too hard haha

Very good puzzle game base on the physics, there are lot of idea in here, the control is a bit tricky to push the box on the trampoline but it's what that make good and fun !

Cats and boxes—what more could you possibly ask for? It’s a match made in heaven, and I’m absolutely here for it!

The idea is interesting, I liked it, but I would refine the mechanics a little, because it's a little difficult to play in some places.

Hahahah I love the funny style! Really clever game, purrfect 😺

I think the idea of the game is fun and the art is charming. I got stuck in some places because the cats like to fly off lol, a trampoline outside the level could help the player to reset less. Cute game!

@emmagsmith, Some levels can really cause difficulties, I added a skip level button to the pause menu

You have perfectly captured the chaotic energy of cats.

Really cute game - I really loved the meme you posted. I had some issues "dropping the box" and I think your game could really use a "restart on R" hotkey - but that's just small things, great game for the jam.

I really like this game! there was a bug that makes you fly when uninteracting with boxes, so could maybe there's tricks to speed run this lol. I love all the mechanics with this one

@wt64, I do not know exactly how it works, but there is also running on the walls. At the last level, you can try. If anything, there is a skip level button in the pause.

Nice game! The box pĥysics are a bit tricky, but thankfully the blue area is forgiving

I launched my cat a really far away and ended up outside the level xD Even though the physics are a bit finicky it is a nice concept for a puzzle game. Doing tricks with the weight and everything is really quite cool!
