Solid game.

The cat moves too slow and it makes you move less through the screen. Despite of this I've played a lot cause it's very fun ^^

Nice game

Good concept and great pixel art! Sadly, the random nature of the raindrops can make the game frustrating at times.

Developer

Thanks! Totally agree. Have to study up on how to do that better next time :)

Simple, fast, and fun!  Good art too!  Nice work! :D

Got 147, a simple game but had great art and the controls were solid. The speed was fine if you kept your eyes at the top you could consistently dodge the rain but there were a few points where I felt like it was impossible to react to some of the rain combinations.

Developer

Thank you! Agree with the rain. The RNG is pretty terrible at times. Can either be super easy or impossible to dodge.

It was fun to play. I had a similar concept (:

Doesn't get much simpler than this (our jam-cats could be brothers :D)

Pico8 was such a perfect choice for this jam, and it came out so well. The water on the ground was an excellent touch. Very well done.

Good work, and good luck!

Developer

Thank you! This jam was good motivation for me to actually try and get into PICO-8.

Loved how the ground was affected by the droplets! Wish the cat could move a bit faster, as some rounds felt kind of clunky with the rain pattern. Dodged 92 drops of water!

A very good game! The idea is excellent. Great graphics. Especially the cover! She's awesome! Good music. And you were able to stick to the theme of the project and the constraint. Good design!

Fairly enjoyable, but the cat moves a little slower than I would prefer as certain combinations of droplets felt impossible to avoid.

Very cute game and nice music ! I avoided 83 raindrops

For me the cat is a bit too slow to avoid lots of drops that are near to eachother. The style is really great especially for 8x8

Developer (1 edit)

Thank you! Yeah, I think it's less about the speed of the cat and more that I should have done a better job with randomizing the drops. Currently it can be either very easy or very difficult.

I avoided 71 drops of water!
