How does your game meet GBJam's theme?
it's about a cat that's both dead and alive, which is pretty spooky I reckon

It looks great, but some sound effects would come a long way. Also it's a shame that the game ends before you can use the powers even once. Anyway I hope you finish the game, because it can be really interesting

Played your game on stream, heres a like to the Vod if you like to watch

Wow, it looks awesome, super sad you didn't make it more complete for the jam it is something I really wanted to play as soon as I saw those gifs. Great usage of the color changes, it felt super smooth.

Submitted

Great artwork and style! Was a nice little demo, and full of humour too! I didn't have any music/sound, is that right? Would love to see an adaptation onto GBC hardware too?!

What a pleasant prototype! The art is superb, the character design is exceedingly charming, and the mechanics are fun to use. Fantastic! Great work!

Submitted

Very smooth movement, a really neat gameplay concept, and amazing art!

Submitted

Everything felt so smooth. Jumps were right. Graphics were amazing. The introduction of the core mechanic is wonderful.

I want more of this.

Gato is fren.

I wanted to play more of this one so bad!! This is such a good intro and I liked the little tease of the game mechanics here. Please finish this one up this October please!

Submitted

Oh how I wish there was more! The artwork was fantastic!

Submitted

I feel like it's hard to give really any new feedback so I'm just gonna say it's good because it is pretty good

Submitted

Movement is great and it's an excellent concept. I'm looking forward to seeing your updates to this!

Submitted

while there isn't any sound, i love the way the game feels and how it works! i also like how you can still move around even after the demo ends

Submitted

 Pretty clever in that even though you cannot really get to use the main mechanics that much, the "Demo ends here" screen allows you to do some stuff and get a great idea of what would be to come.

Even before playing you can see the visuals are a stand out

This looks great and promising and I would really like to play this game. If I could... Even the core mechanic, though implemented, is not used in the game for any effect at all besides where its introduced. The screencaps show more than you can actually do in the game. Also, no sound.

In regards to the jam, I wish I could rate it better. But there simply isn't anything to rate yet in many categories.

I do however find this amazing and am honestly excited to see this finished in the future! If there was some more content this could easily have become one of the top games of this jam :D

The world feels like the Constantine movie.  I dig it.

Submitted

This is such a cool lil demo! Really well polished, and the concept is brilliant. It is a shame there is no sound, but I am looking forward to playing the full game when it's ready.

Submitted

Graphically speaking and in terms of game feel, everything is very good. But the main thing is missing, which is the game itself. I believe that if there was a little more gameplay, at least for Jam, it would be possible to evaluate more accurately what is to come.

I look forward to seeing the rest because it is really a game I would like to continue playing.

Submitted

Oh my gosh it's so pretty! All the art is amazing and eye candy! What you have so far is very promising! Nice work!

I have never seen a game jam entry as polished as this one 🤯 I love how you have kept the scope small to make everything perfect. I am a big fan of Ghost Trick so I am looking forward to the final game! I would be really interested in a devblog post / tutorial about the light effect in the leaky pipe room :)

Submitted

a very promising game !! Purrfect pixel art !!!!
