This was very original! Great idea seriously, my only issue is with the motion sickness. Anyways, good game, good job!

How does your game fit the theme?
We wanted to evoke the feeling of not having control over time passing during quarantine, so you use a jetpack to navigate moving hazards that speed up and slow down time! We also wanted to put a cheerful spin on other elements of quarantine where we've had little control, so isolation becomes outer space, and there's cats,and personal belongings just floating around everywhere.

Fun little game. Liked the cat theme and artwork. Felt like it was zoomed in a bit too much, so the anomalies felt like punishment for reading the mini-map incorrectly. If it were a bit more zoomed out you could plan a maneuver around them and react quicker to the pickups

Mars probeNice game! Absolutely love the work you did with the sound effects. The dampening when you are reading, the pitch when entering time anomalies. It's also really fun to play, hard to control but not impossible or frustrating. It's a nice balance. Also the art style is way to cute and everything fits nicely together. I don't have any remarks actually, well done!

Go With The FlowI really liked the theme and the mechanics! The art is very cool. Good job.
But I suffered a little bit of motion sickness because of the camera. Maybe use a static camera or slower turns.

Antivirus InternAs mentioned the spinning and camera work could use some improvements, but I liked the addition of the mini-map a lot to help re-orient and know what to do. I would've been hopelessly lost without it! Also some really good flavor text for the whole 'cats in space' thing going on. Nicely done!

CartastropheI’m really not a fan of the movement (which took me a while to figure out) but else good game ! Apart from that, the art and text are fun and the concept of time distortion that depletes your O2 faster is a good concept that encourages you to avoid or reach for the moving bubbles. Good job ^^

A Key(s) PathPretty fun game, it was also really cool, when you go through the bubble and it becomes fast.

Out of Control PointsGreat little game, it felt fun controlling the cat but also fitted well with the theme when you ended up spinning out of control. However the camera being so zoomed damaged the experience quite a lot for me. I feel like it should be zoomed out 2 or 3 times more. As well as this, I was a bit confused about the purpose of the space time anomalies, were they just to send you more out of control or did they serve some other purpose I didn't notice? That being said, the camera is an easy fix and the rest of the game was great, I really loved the cute art style and dialogue. Amazing work!

ApocalypseJetting through anomalies is incredible!
The rotation of the character is a bit disorienting, though.
I think if you can pack the map with more anomalies, flying through the ship will be like partying when you are high.

For his hopes and dreamsThis was really fun! Only game I downloaded, but loved it! The speed ramped up really quickly but once I got the hang of it I was able to figure out how to control the cat.

Gravity DrifterReally really trippy. Rather nice game overall though. The art and visuals were rather nice and I liked how the spheres would manipulate time as well. Movement was rather out of control and was damn nice. Overall it was a cool game, I suppose I could get a little motion sick but otherwise it was great

Frantic reloadThe game looks really great, I love the art style and the psychedelic time effects. The music is really nice too! My only gripe is that it can be very disorienting, I wish I could zoom out and that it wouldn't spin as much. Great job job nonetheless!

HellslingerThe 2D/3D graphics actually work together incredibly well, hands down best looking game I played (I don't know whether that was an intentional choice, time crunch, or you just not being able to model a catstronaut but it works INCREDIBLY well). The poetry was super clever and is super cute. The controls are just the perfect amount of infuriating and controllable. This game is the perfect length for a gamejam game as well. Extremely well done!

ScrollsThanks so much! I think we actually went the opposite where we wanted as many things to be hand-drawn 2D as possible, but I'm faster with 3D and photoshop so we ended up drawing a bunch of things on paper and then modifying photos of them to get them in game! There is a version of the game that was entirely 3D and we just kept replacing 3D assets with 2D ones. If there had been more time I would have loved to get more environment art in to personalize each of the different cat's quarters more, actually!
