First of all pawtastic game :D
Plus points for all the great cat-puns at the end :D
On the topic of the game:
In Visual novels it is always difficult to get interactivity and the illusion of choice right. The fact that whatever you said was translated into a meow was an awesome way around that! Jesse schelle writes in the "Art of Game Design" making games is finding a essential Experience and making your players experience that.
I well and truly felt like a Cat being ignored! Well done :D
A few things i would have liked more of:
- more cat sounds on the catiano! :D, no really, great idea that. I'm just a really bad Musician.
- a few more quests and just a tad more interactivity. maybe be able to actually go to gramma and finally get that cuddling we never got? I was a little bit dassapointed not to have gotten my own goal at any point during the game.
and thats it, really. Great entry into the Jam. I had fun playing a cat :D
Oh and one more thing: the game would have profited greatly by a volume control... as would have so many of our games this jam.
Extremly cursed game :-D But also super pretty Meow!
We recommend to not skip the dialogue for a reason ;)
Lovely entry! I really enjoyed how your complex monologues in the dialogue selections got translated into "Meow!"!!
The art and the animation are great!
A bit of platforming would be fun as well!
Anyway a great game. Kudos for the memes :P
A game with a beginning, a middle and an end. I could use a little bit more interactivity, but being a kind of visual novel, I guess it is fine. Congratz on the submission!
The art style is absolutely gorgeous! And the Meow-piano is also such a great touch!
It took me a moment to realize that advancing the dialog is triggered by clicking, after initializing the dialog is done by pressing 'e' and there is a small issue with sequence breaking, but some of the text is super cute and very funny, so going back and playing through it again was very enjoyable =)
I watched the part in your stream and I was dying a bit inside xD
I'm glad you enjoyed it! :)
