i managed to get three endings of the endings (somehow unlocked all four on the menu tho?) and it was really cool trying to figure out what i needed to do :D and as always the art is absolutely amazing! (also are the things on the menu from septembit? cause i feel like I've seen them before lol)

you got me good Malek!
Great work! Some of the endings do fit similar criteria I should have safeguarded against hehe
Indeed, you are right, reusing the Septembit assets to fit the narrative I wished to convey
Hey Patrick! Thanks for giving it a go and leaving feedback!
Maybe some of my tweets ended up being confusing as I might have decided to exclude stuff or things didnt manage to make it in the game hehe.
Of course, there was a slight bug that refills the well by consuming one blue cat, so that makes it all the more confusing hehe
I will definitely give you a shout once I make such a video! Endmark games plays it at 01:42 https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2090879520 (if that helps)
Thanks for sharing that! Yup Endmark’s playthrough was very similar to mine, even the mental points of aha’s of uncovering new animations and so forth. Though I was somehow less focussed on the cats disappearing or changing, maybe because the animation of the button and the laser firing was more prominent I didn’t notice.

Hey Potatuetata! (that was pain to try and spell properly lol)
Thanks for sticking with it and getting 3! I know how weird it can be, having seen people stream their confusion a few times now hehe.
Glad you enjoyed the corrupted one! It certainly was fun to animate and see how the eyes worked XD

Hey Dev Pirates!
Thanks for dropping by and for your kind words!
Congratulations for getting to an ending first of all, and for being patient to find more than one! I tried to leave a comment that links to a tweet that has some suggestions if you REALLY want to try for the other ending. But to be honest, after the bugs that made it in, there might be another way you get the ending that I am not aware of yet hehe

Hey Q34! Thanks for playing! Glad you liked the art (and the cat picking and the pun :D )
I tried to communicate without language, so I didn't include the math language either. I just used points on a dice to show or actually "hint" progression to the player. When you pick and move cats, and put them in the grinder, things appear and ... move along the story you chose. It has technically 3 + 1 endings you can choose. As a player, you are also going through your own story. "How long will you keep playing?" and "what will you notice?" and "game full of bugs makes this more confusing than it needs to be" (this is my story hehe, a few annoying things I forgot to control make the game even more confusing). Hopefully i'll make a YouTube video over the next 3 years about this, so it will all be revealed there :D
Thanks HalfSmore for trying it out! When you mean you played it twice, meaning you got to see my logo splattered across the screen? XD
You have a set of actions you can complete. Points in dice go up (“no language” was part of the constraints, so not even Arabic numerals used hehe).
Then, depending where you invested your points, you might get one of many endings. Thanks for the support!
