Simple but fun. Physics based mechanic can always bring interesting situations. What could be useful is some indication for crosshairs that show when it will shoot (tapering circle etc.). Tracking them could be string challanging GIT GUD moment, because when there are 10 crosshairs you can't keep track of all them. Other than that the game works excelent!
That's a very interesting mechanic that makes you use both instruments, All the elements nicely fit each other: cats that hit baloons, cats that need to be hit themselves and without long reload this mechanic could be senseless.The only thing that makes it feel more clunky is cats sliding, which makes it hard to calculate traectory. May be some of the upgrades fixes it but i could figure it out. Overall very nice!
Regardless of the ... dcomplicated first impression(I immediately got stuck between door and wall with 10 FPS in fullscreen mode) I can say that such compilcated combat works even though the game was made for 3 days. Enemies have behaviour patterns, you can beat them without taking damage. Yes, technically the game is not perfect: doors lock in realtime, thus you can get stuck or just leave a room until the door closes and isolate this room forever, melee enemies often miss although visually they hit the player. I couldn't figure out how to use these psionic abilites. The art is amazing, especially animations fell very smooth, it is clear how much effort is put in them.
Pixel art is cute. Key art is amazing.. The fact that music is getting wierder and wierder is fun even at my 1700 pts, I can't even imagine how it will sound at 10k. Dash is practically useless, because all attacks are easily dodged by just walking and when you get overwhelmed it almost impossible to guess where to dodge.
Visuals are cool as hell, everything, characters, enviroment, animations, particles. Everything is on top.
Gamedesign is pretty basic but with it's feature: paired effects which I've only seen in Shotgun king. Some of effects are really valuable and change gameplay, both positive (such as immunity to melee/ranged damage) and negative (inverting controls).
Technical condition is okay but there was one major bug on the screenshot: upgrade cards just scew on click and cannot click them anymore. One all three cards bugged, you're doomed because upgrade doesn't pause the game (which is also a big problem)
Art is pretty, crate mechanic is quiye interesting to play around but technical condition leaves much to be desired: player constantly clips through the crate and player can retain some force after death and move. In order to handle game you need to constantly switch hand between keyboard and nouse (or have three hands: for space, arrow keys and mouse).
Exteremely good pixelart, effects and visuals overall. The flying sword is quite interesting mechanics in terms of that attack is coming not from the player but from the sword itself. Gamepad controls are barely playable due to missing right stick aiming, thus in order to attack enemy behind yourself you need GO back.

Brilliance of this mechanic is at level of its simplicity. Very enjoyable mechanic and level design that can create interesting puzzles without tons of elements. Quality-of-life moments such as undo and controls display are always pleasant. Controls themselves are not very comfortable. May be it would be betteto bind form switch at QWERASDF buttons to not reach out for digits.
The game is extremely beautiful and enjoyable at the concept. But it has some troubles with controls. May be it would be better to have separate binding for rope grab, beacuse the situation when rope is close to the wall are often and its almost impossible to hook the wall — character grabs rope back. Also its not always obvious which wall you can hook and which not.
Special thanks for full gamepad support :)
Very unique concept of puzzle dungeon crawler and great art!
Niggles:
Camera is not too comfortable to move, it is too slow. It would be nice to be able to drag camera with mouse which will also release left from keyboard.
It is not always clear how walls are placed on a card. They can be more contrast.
Traps don't make much sense because you can just not add them to dungeon.
Techncal perfomance is not perfect. The main problem is camera. It is now fast enough so player can leave the camera view. Controls are not bound to camera view so when camera looks backwards controls becomve inverted. It would be easier and better to just make top down isometric camera.
Gameplay is fun (but pressing E to pick up rock is bit annoying. it could picked up itself)
Graphics and music are awesome.
It doesn't seem like house cooldown is needed because makes game ve-e-ery slow. There are situatuions where you can't make a proper turn due to lack of options (there is only one house) and you just have to wait. Also it would be comfortable if character trait were represented by icons so you don't have click on each character to see them.
Art: No words. Spectacular pixel art and smooth animations please my eyes.
Sound: Awesome atmospheric ambience. Even my cat got scared by the sound of the rian.
Gameplay: Combat is really coll and tactical. Dash works perfectly.
—Details—
Camera: I can never see what is under your feet therefore I always have to jump into the unknown and sometimes this "unknown" is spike. Also when I run about 80% of screen is behind and some enemy may suddenly apeear ahead.
Jump: It has very long delay. It causes no probles but it very unusually and I can not preciesely count timing if I want to throw spear in jump. But may be it is just my problem.
Perfomance: Why is your game eating 50% of my CPU?
P.S. I didn't finish the game because I got stuck in front of wheat-head man. Does game go on?
