I really like the blend of 2D and 3D. The bosses were pretty fun; I had trouble with the third boss for a while because it isn't obvious that the player can stand on the speaker as a platform. There's also some delay with the slam and jump that make them a bit difficult to control.
I'm playing in browser. Having earned a ticket from the tutorial, I can't enter the boss fights by clicking Z. It seems like something's broken. Any help?
(Animator here) You have to back out of the arcade machine and exchange the tickets with the counter cat -- unfortunately we ran out of time before we could make that flow more obvious :/
Ok thanks. Gosh, sorry, now that I've beaten the rat I can't figure out how to get two tickets to exchange for the second boss fight. I've tried doing the rat and the tutorial multiple times. I was actually getting excited... lol. Wait. Somehow I started getting tickets. Okay, this game is cool! I can't seem to get a high enough score on the rocket rat, but I feel satisfied with this game now. Thanks for the good time.
I had a lot of fun playing this game. The art and the animations were really good. I had a lot of fun. Good Job.
If you are interested, could you please play my game too. I would really appreciate it.
I really like the cats artwork I thought it was both cute and cool looking at the same time!:)
This was absolutely the most unique game I have found on here so far...wow, it was confusing, but fun and interesting good job 4/5
The 2D pixel animations are soooo cool! Love the concept too :D
Very fun game. I particularly liked the hub, it was really creative!
Really good job with the 2D animation!
Great game! I like the mix of 3D Menu/Hub with 2D Boss battles. The boss battles themselves are very challenging and take some trial and error. They are quite creatively designed & it's cool that they match the Rythm of the music.
