Thanks for joining our jam!
Great job with the game! The controls are intuitive, although the mouse sensitivity is a little high, and I think the overall UI is good as well. The ambience was great, I liked the environment, the art, the puzzle, and of course, our main cat and dog characters. Love that you setup different poses for the cat all over the place.
I only have 2 main gripes about the game, and it's that there's no pause menu - pressing escape brings you straight back to the title screen, and that the audio levels for the cat are very different. Some are incredibly, incredibly quiet, to the point I thought it was just the dog walking around at first, and having to turn my headphones all the way up, only to fail, made the fail sound that much louder. It would be nice to have that audio equalized a little bit between the cat laughter from different places. I mostly noticed it when it was behind the player.
Small side nitpick, sometimes I would look at the cat, have him be full on on my screen, and I would still fail.
The game runs smoothly, the level design for the room and closet was nice, but I wish the design for the maze area had more to it. Even the same types of walls used in the initial room, just turned into hallways, probably would have made for better design.
The sound design was nice, really added to the ambience, with the light constant static, the fusebox noise, the voice acting with both characters. Sound design is definitely the second most important thing in a horror game after gameplay, and I think you guys did a great job with it.
The game was definitely a solid little horror piece, very self-contained, didn't overstay its welcome, and was overall pretty fun to play. Congrats on finishing!
