How does your game incorporate the theme?
We have incorporated the theme Lightshow by implementing a game in which we guide a cat through a series of obstacles using lasers! There are various lasers scattered throughout the levels to distract the cat along the way.

Concept is really cool. I love the retro style to the game, it made me very nostalgic. The cat is very cute! :P
I loved the game! It felt like a classic gaming experience. The game play was great and challenging and the colour scheme was perfect. Also love the music :D ... very catchy!
Not a cat person but having a cat chase around a laser I can deal with! Very cool idea!
The concept alone is really good, but the game play is a bit frustrating. Would love to see a whole game of this cat searching for the perfect napping spot!
Apologies, I accidentally made the field that speaks to justifying your use of the limitation private and there's no way to revert it. Please see the justification for the limitation of this game below:
Only one laser can guide the cat at a time. You need to quickly switch between your available lasers before the cat gets distracted and strays away from the goal.
I love the kitty cat so much
This game is absolutely adorable. I love love love the idea of guiding a cat with laser lights! There was some awkwardness with cat's animations at certain moments (like when you're trying to hold it in place) and the game broke a couple times when the cat was guided off-screen by a rogue green laser light, but when it worked, it worked great.
Implementing the theme "Lightshow" with a cat and laser lights is just a very clever and creative way to approach the idea. I don't know which one of you thought of the concept first, but it was a great way to do it. I don't think you incorporated the "Only One" limitation, but plenty of people missed that.
Super, super great idea for a game, and you should keep working on it and fleshing it out when you're not bound by the limitations of the game jam.
What a concept!
I would love to play the full game of this!
This is SUCH a good game!! I LOVE the concept, I've never seen something like it before! I am so emotionally attached to this cat.
This is fucking brilliant. What a concept. Also struggled a bit at first doesn't take away from the cool concept and beautiful artwork
Struggled a bit at the beginning to figure it out but once I got use to it it was fun. Super cute concept too. Just missing some music.
Levels are nice and difficult, and the graphics are that classic aesthetic of the late 80s, early 90s platforming. Nostalgic trip!
Really adorable design and gameplay, love the concept. However, there is only one level, which makes me sad because I wanted to play more :(
EDIT: There is now finally a level 4, and it's hard, I love it.
