In my opinion, this game would benefit from shorter tracks. I’m not sure how I feel about the scratch mechanic; it feels floaty to me, and difficult to time compared to a key press. I had a hard time being able to tell how well I was doing with those.
The way the dialogue progresses was a big detractor for me; working through the tutorial, I got very distracted trying to read and retain everything, remember the controls, figure out what I’d already forgotten, etc. Took me a couple times to get the hang of things.
That all being said, it’s a nice-looking game, and relatively well-implemented. The art is good; I like how the hue of the tracks changes with the difficulty, though keeping the width of that button would make it easier to cycle through them.
The writing and presentation were good, and the cat’s a big selling point to me.
