so lovely and heart-warming game! i enjoyed playing it:)
I love this so much! I got stuck trying to get Birdie past the scratching post though so I never got to see the kitchen :(

I really enjoyed this game. Good puzzles and soundtrack.
Nice game, the puzzles were super interesting and it was funny seeing all the different thing the cat could do to distract the owners!
Cute story/concept, with a cutscene and everything!
Very cute game! Really well done :)
Cute artstyle! Amazing how you were able to include a backstory in 48 hours.
Very cute, I felt super terrible every time I failed my poor little birdie when I wasn't careful enough. Adorable cutscene in the beginning, very nice touch. Overall, a very neat, cute platformer!
Good puzzle with nice art, I like it!
Very cute concept and good puzzles. Nice job :)
Ooooo now this is some good stuff, ngl i had a blast playing, GG (great game xD)
The concept is very original. Jumping is very fun and the mechanic holding/dropping the bird is very very cool! Good job :)
Really great game! Love the puzzling aspect and soundtrack. The game have a certain charm to it ~Please check mine, when you get time :D
Creative puzzles, and a unique theme. Nice work!
Thank you for playing and for the feedback!
long time since I last saw a TV with an antenna
great work and a really cute cat
Thanks for playing and your feedback!
I don't often play puzzle games but I had a fun time playing this! Nice work! I also like how you interpreted the theme!
Thanks very much, really appreciate the feedback!
Love the puzzling aspect and soundtrack
Thanks very much!
Really great game! I didn't expect to see this kind of puzzle content but it was a welcome challenge.
Only drawback (and maybe this is just my stupidity) is that I could not beat lvl 3. I was on the web version, and literally tried everything for 30 minutes: droping glass into drawer, droping glass onto floor, jumping on roomba, picking up glass, giving bird to roomba, cheating the scale with glitches, etc.
Thank you very much for your feedback :)
Yeah in the kitchen there is also a certain sequence you have to perform the actions in - each action you can take enables you to do one thing or the other. We don't really explain it properly, but you need to make proper use of the scale to achieve one thing, and you can interact with the lower part of the shutters on the left side of the room (on the floor).
Thanks for giving it a try and for the feedback!
The game have a certain charm to it :)
Even if it maybe lacks some visual and technical sense, I loved that all levels were handcrafted and not generic at all!
We need more such original games.
Thanks for your comment Radium! Happy you enjoyed playing it - all the animations and graphics that required were made by my friend, I only helped out with generic and kind of rushed elements because of the time limit. Thanks for the feedback :)
