i tried to think of a story theme to match as well as the overall design have an 8x8 tile restriction. the story is driven by a small cat and a boy who feels small and is frightened by this fact.

I like it! Just a tip, center your sprites so they'll look consistent when you move the character in different directions! The music is nice, if not a bit repetitive, and I like the story idea. Good job! Rated :)

Wow! I love this game!! The story is simple but well told. It made me think a lot about myself and the way I view myself in comparison to the significantly larger universe. There's a nice message that I wish I would have learned when I was younger. Excellent game!!
