I love this concept, being hunted by the cat feels pretty fun, I think there is lots of room to expand upon the gameplay and add more mechanics and complexity as the game doesn’t feel super fun to play in it’s current state, having some more chaos would help it go a long way :]!

BORZOINK!I am always drawn to games with a pun in the title. Also, you can never go wrong with a cat game. The camera was a bit wonky at times which was disorienting, but it added to the overall suspense of the game. I like @Romain.P's idea of adding the ability to move the yarn in any direction... It might help the flow feel even better. Nice job!

SPRINTCute idea ! the house seems very big, I had some trouble controlling the yard ball, maybe adding more control like the ability to go sideways or backward could give a better feel to it !

Farming Like A BossFun concept! The cat just wanted to play :') I think showing health for the yarn might be a good way to let players know how close they were to their demise

Mouse n' Key!You made a horror game!! That cat is everywhere at all times whenever I turn the camera! The animation was really solid, and loved the screaming trumpets(?) in the soundtrack. I kinda just bolted to the bed after I found it cause the cat can't go under it and I'm a wuss :) But yeah, had fun exploring the house with that cute cat scaring the hell out of me! Great work.

You are the CodeFirst, the music is really cool!! I love how the chromatic sounding piano comes in (I kinda wish it played more bass notes because they're cool), and the smoother second section is a great contrast.
I was kind of confused about the goal of the game though. I now assume that the goal is to survive as long as possible, but to make that more clear it'd be nice to have a timer (that would also give the player an idea of how well they did). Also it'd be nice if you weren't forced to face forwards at all times so that you could see the cat behind you.
Good job on finishing though :) the house looks nice and the music is my favourite part

NenupharI like the premise, and the art style is pretty appealing. I liked how the yarn ball looked. The controls were a bit wonky, it would have been nice to be able to back up as well. Also had a weird drag where it was usually pulling to the right. Increasing the deadzones for the mouse might help a bit but hard to say for sure. Also I wish the camera was tilted a bit farther up just so I could see more of the art and layout because I really loved the look of the house.
Love the idea of running away from the cats as a yarn ball as well. It reminded me a bit of "I Am Fish" in a good way.
