Nice game. I figured out some of them. Nice design. and nice cat :)
So I have been playing this for a few days now and I believe I have it solved!
Except objectives 13 and 15.
The way I solved it was if the number matched the 5th letter it set that amount of lives, but also each number was associated with a color, and since the lives left did not match the eye color, it would be impossible? Or am I missing something still and it is possible?
Wow, thanks for playing that far!
And congratulations on figuring out all five patterns!
You are absolutely right, objectives 13 & 15 are currently impossible to clear.
It's completely my fault too. I changed one of the pattern after setting up the objectives and I didn't check thoroughly enough to make sure everything still worked.
I plan to fix this issue (and a couple others) in the post-jam update.
Anyway, sorry about the inconvenience and thanks for the feedback!
Oh and I love your team's game, by the way!
Definitely one of the most memorable entries in this jam in my opinion
Interesting idea to generate different beautiful cats :)
Great game and so many options, good take on the theme as well. The cats looked amazing! :)
The UI and the puzzle mechanics could use some directions, took me a while to find out how to proceed and create needed cats for the objectives.
That was a great deal of different types of cats. Many surprises!
Wasn't able to play it. Maybe it was my browser? Looks cool though.
Oh, that sucks :/
What happened exactly? Did the game crash while loading?
May I also ask what browser you're using?
First of all, the game looks really good :p
Too bad there was no audio ? or maybe it was bugged for me...
I think the game could do with a few tips on how to generate specifics cats but other than that, this is amazing and really fits the theme.
Interesting idea and good execution! But I am confused about the objectives screen. How do you clear an objective? The first one asks for blue irises and I got that, but nothing happens. Later I seemingly cleared an objective but I don't know how. Is there a bug or am I just doing it wrong?
No you didn't do anything wrong, the objective screen suffers from a couple of bugs.
One of them is that it only checks if you've cleared an objective when you switch (with the left / right arrow keys) instead of checking at all times. Hence the confusing behavior.
Anyway, given the buggy nature of the objective system, I think it's more fun to just ignore it altogether and simply focus on figuring out the patterns for yourself.
Oooo, George is such a cute kitty, can't wait till he wakes me up at 3 AM!
I have found some patterns, I feel like (especially for eye color, eye amount and tail type), but others have been a mystery for me. Pretty funny game!
Fun and creative idea! Not sure if it's completely random or if there's a pattern to discover.
I just hope the cat doesn't get hurt in the process.
There are so many possibilities! I couldn't even begin to figure out the pattern, but you have very cute art and it's very on theme.
Way above my pay grade to work out the puzzle element but man it was fun playing with that cat. Great game!
Loved this interesting puzzle! The cat is adorable and seeing it morph is so fun! I couldn't figure all of it out though D:
Great game!
Kittyyyy
I made square pikachu and if that isn't evolution idk what is. xD i tried so many combinations the hecc
PI-CAT-CHU Ö.Ö
the art and overall composition is incredible.
10/10
Well done! More selection than drift, but that's me being an evolutionary biologist :D Loved the art (interesting placement of the third eye at times, ha). I _think_ I was starting to figure out some patterns but it was taking too long to generate the strings I needed (and I wasn't sure if there was a way to generate them less randomly, which then again wouldn't mimic drift). Nice submission, it was also fun to just button-mash generate a bunch of random cats.
Wow i made a cat with three eyes! Super cool art style!
Enjoyed all the different art, would have been nice to have a bit more instruction on how to change the different forms.
