This was a lot of fun in a horribly frustrating way (which I'm assuming was intentional!) I haven't actually finished it because after my cat sailed off into the eternal blue yonder I couldn't bear to restart from the beginning, but what I did play was cute and enjoyable. Loved the touch of the little messages on the checkpoints.

I used 8x8 textures! The message box is an 8x8 texture stretched out by the NinePatchRect.

Hide And SqueakA simple but decent platformer, I liked the look but not sure if I was supposed to infinitely fall off the mountain though?

Purr-anormal Cat-ivityCute platformer. I found sometimes the cat would jump again when landing? Caused a couple of accidental jumps for me haha. Also some jumps were difficult as I could not see the platform below that I was trying to land on.
Nice work for the timeframe though! Reminds me a bit of super meat boy.

Pocket PetCan't go wrong with a classic platformer. Could use a little music and sound effects, but otherwise puts forth a worthy challenge.
Gameplay wise, you might consider having the player jump only on key press down, instead of whether it's held down, to prevent accidental jumps. Also, a button to return to your latest checkpoint, so falling to the bottom of the pit doesn't force you to start from scratch.
Fine work, and good luck! :D

Laser 'Purr'cisionGetting Out Of It is clearly supposed to be a frustrating platformer. It heavily reminded me of the other frustrating games that exist. However, I really liked the concept despite it not being very orginal. Considering that you made this within a day, I have to give you credit where it's due. This was a great platforming experience!
I really feel this game has potential if the Developer continues to work on it.
Overall, a great fun little experience that can be at times often frustrating! :D

Bee Swarm ManiaNice one! Movement is really smooth and the landscape looks very cool! I was a bit frustrated when I missed one spot and didn't see a checkpoint in a while. Cool game :)

[C]AtelierCool little platformer, the movement feels good. A bit frustrating, but expected from a game inspired by Getting over it lol. With more time I could see this becoming a great game.
Keep it up!
