hii speed comment cuz ratings are closing in literally 3 seconds but I really like this game and I wish I had played it earlier because your game not only plays well but is super cute and I love all the juice you added (i.e. sound effects, transitions, UI, everything is sick) and honestly it reminds me of some of my favorite casual games to play. I think this is a really good contender for top 3.

The game is visually very pleasing, the cat is very cute and the color palette is perfect, The level design is very well done, and feels well polished for a game made in only 8 days, really a very good job!💛

Like it very much! Good job, especially for only one weak of development and being the only one dev! Like the style and main character art, like levels construction (how you built levels to solve different kind of puzzles!). Like levels with switchers and lasers! Good platforming!
Great job! 5/5

I am not a fan of puzzle platformer much. But I enjoyed it, because the art style is pretty good looking..

Overall a very good game..

This is a very generic puzzle game ,I like the cat its so cute ,so mechanics side ,I didn't like the wall sliding ,it feels very sticky imo ,the movement is too slow for my liking ,there are levels that is too boring :/ But you did a rly gj :D 

Developer(+1)

Thanks for the review, I don't know how to fix the problem of having boring levels, I'm not sure if it has to do with the fact that the first levels are too obvious. about the movement, if I release a new version, I will polish the gameplay.

I really really like the concept, very fun and engaging to play. Beautiful art and lighting.
But I dont like the movement, It was somewhat unreponsive.
Great work overall.

Developer

Thanks, I don't know if this is the problem with the movement, but in this game I didn't create a coyote time for the jump so there may be times when you're on the edge of a platform and the jump doesn't work.

Is it okay if I share a resource with you?

Developer

Yep

Even if you dont use unity the concepts mentioned in this video will help a lot in making platformers, I learnt a lot from this.

Developer

thanks :D

really cool game! Only nitpick is maybe the cat jump with space. But other than that i love the puzzles, the art was cute and liked the walljumping stuff, its simple but fun

Well thought-out puzzles, the art style is nice and the way the controls are communicated to the player in the first level was great.

Very cool puzzle and precision platformer with great mechanics and awesome art. The only note im going to add is that in the level where platforms turn on and off, it might be easier for the player to time it if it switched in sync with the music, kinda like celeste B - sides. Aside from that, amazing work! :D

Developer

At the beginning of the game's development, the blinking light would have had a bar so you could know when it would be on, but this idea of adding a sound is much better

Very fun, very creative and overall just extremely cute. The controls take some time getting used to, but its still a great game! :D
