I love those pixelated cats! I think having just a little momentum from the mouse velocity when you let the cats go would have added a lot to the feel of moving them around.

Simple but very strong concept, I love the sound effects and animations. Great choice of music too :D

Is it intended to be able to grab multiple cast cats by holding the mouse button?

Hey! Love how simple and straightforward the game is. Used to teach younger children as a part time job in high school, and this is EXACTLY what it felt like. Great use of the song. It fit extremely well

I love how chaotic it is! It really fits the theme! And it is really original as well! The music fits perfectly for it, and the art assets are amazing for being created in 2 days! Only a few things : the menu button sound kinda annoyed me, and i can't maximise the window :(. But except from that an extremely polished game that fits the theme perfectly!
