  • I really enjoyed the idea of this one and how fun it was. The presentation overall was great. But I feel like the connection to the theme could be stronger and I also ended up falling through the world while playing.
  • That LOSER screen is BRUTAL, but it made me laugh so hard! Overall I think this was super creative and a lot of aspects of it were well-executed, but I found it frustrating that the firehose most often shot to the left of where I was intending (a crosshair might've helped) and there were lots of holes in the level geometry that I could see/fall through.

I finished the game with pleasure, the music just finished me. The 2D graphics are just perfects also the sounds design and the voice who's nice. Just a bit lost in the corridors some times :)

Developer(+1)

Appreciate the review and kind words. Sound design was a really big focus in the development and we're excited to hear people commenting on it!

I love your interpretation of the theme (having cats in a game is always a good idea) and the mix of 2D art with 3D environment. It's a fun game overall ! You all did a good job here team :D

Nice game - I love the idea of saving cats as a firefighter, and I love the implementation too! The way the menu was integrated with gameplay was great, and I really liked how the game looked with those bold black shadows and high contrast. Shooting felt really satisfying as well, particularly how it got higher and higher pitched the longer you held down, and the cats purring and meowing to get your attention was a nice way to keep you on track too. I also liked the voice acting, which not only gave some background info on what I was doing, but also gave the game some personality; it's always nice hearing another human's voice. Nice work on making this game, it was fun!

Thank you for the Feedback! Appreciate all the details you went into with it, glad to hear you enjoyed the game :)

I really, really like the concept of this game! The use of the main mechanic throughout and the hold esc are nice touches! I also fell through the level a couple of times and eventually out of the world. Though, all in all, an enjoyable game! 

Developer(+1)

Hey thanks for the feedback! Good to hear that you had an enjoyable experience! We fell out of world a few time too, haha unfortunately we were not able to spend as much time as we would liked on the level design for that area! Fun Fact: there are actually TWO playable areas besides the main menu. we have a "testing grounds" that we left in... and I do not believe you can fall out of world there:)

I actually fell out of the top world into the testing grounds! haha 

Developer

Haha great bug!

the voice acting is surprising but works very well. humor works pretty well. the idea of using the main mechanic in the menu is really a really good idea, big gg to all of you

Developer(+1)

Hey! Thanks for the feedback! I think the mechanic in the Menu was a great touch and something that Raphael came up with. Got to love when you have a couple of really cool programmers who bring awesome ideas and playable prototypes to match. Had a lot of fun with this game from Ideas to creation to  execution :) The Intro voices were something we thought of on the fly and it was one of those "wouldn't it be cool if.." things that we were actually able to throw in!

Very fun game! The camera's FOV feels a bit low for me personally, and I couldn't turn the mouse sensitivity down, but it was still really fun.

Developer(+1)

hey thanks for feedback! the FOV and Sensitivity were definitely something that came up in our very late stages of testing and tweaking. We just simply did have the time to spend on getting those portions of the game right, unfortunately. But I am glad you had fun!

Fun game! I managed to fall out of the world though lol

Developer(+1)

haha yes so did we, unfortunately there wasn't nearly enough time for the Level Designer to make the Apartments Level the way that he envisioned... The reality of a Level Designer in a 2 day Jam :p once the Assets are in and Mechanics are good then we say "ok now make us a level" aaaannnnnnnd then boom its time to submit. Thank you for the feedback we are glad that you had fun! :)

Developer(+1)
