Cute game about a cat keeping their human. Wholesome, but short. Suffers from edge-cases slowing down progress (literally, I struggled to get key objects out from the edges of the levels)

Still, if these things were optimized, I could see this being a fun and wholesome short game.

I was only able to play 2 sections. Was that intended? The egg and frying pan idea was fun, but both sections suffered from getting items stuck in corners. I had to coax the egg and the ball of yarn out of the corners to progress both times.

[ + + + + -] :: CREATIVITY

It felt like a wholesome spin on pets keeping humans. I liked it. I wish the relationships with them were explored more, but it's hard to get that out of 2 mini-games.

Love it when the tutorial is present in the game. You made good use of the assets available to you. The opening cutscene was intriguing, but I wondered how it connects with the rest of the game. I would give 4 stars if the contexts felt like they fit together more, and 5 stars if there had been something to show that you had gone the extra mile in visuals/audio/transitions

Thanks for the review!
I knew the troubles in the corners, and i can't solve it in time, but you can restart the levels.
Maybe i didn't explain enough, but the idea was that when something gets stuck, you just have to restart the level (they aren't too long), but no one seems to think so.
Anyways, thanks for the extensive review, all the feedback is great!

Thanks for giving me the wholesomes!

I like the creativity of this game. Also it has some fails that you can laugh at. May need some work with sounds though. Good Job!

Feel free to hop into my game as well and share your thoughts and ratings if you have the time!

Man's creativity truly knows no bounds - turns out getting an egg into a frying pan is god tier difficulty

Developer

Sorry about that, for me that's so easy because i made it, i'll be sure to make it easier in the final version, thanks for the feedback!

ah no that wasn't meant to be an insult. It was really funny actually watching everything fly everywhere!

I was trying to get the egg on the pan and it went on the cat's back and then catapulted into the sky, becoming inaccessible. 10/10.

Developer

I knew things like that could happen, so i made the restart button (R) to reload the level.

Its always a feature, even when it isn't. I really enjoyed this and the idea is very unique. Aside from some bugs features, I would like to see more control and mobility of the player and other ways to interact with your human. Overall, fun wholesome game with cat is exactly what I needed in life.

short and fun, also cat = 11/10

Cool idea! I like the idea of being a cat and having to play with your owner, and the egg minigame, though it was a little hard for me, was pretty fun! The audio gave me jumpscare though haha

I love how comedic and fun the game is! I really enjoyed myself playing this one

Albeit quite confusing at first, once you lose the first playthrough, you get a feel for the concept and it becomes more enjoyable, would have liked a more in depth guide at first but its alright, for I felt confused, the visuals are quite nice and the artstyle is homogenous too, I always appreciate the effort in 3D entries, knowing they take time to craft and polish to look decent, so I applaud your bravery to take on a three dimensional challenge,
oh and cat, thus great game, again a very solid entry indeed, while quite chaotic and lacking in polish, the Idea is again smart and has potential, so kudos on the creative side also!
would totally enjoy such a type in a more polished n expanded state, thus excellent work indeed!

Pretty entertaining, but is the game supposed to close after the yarn ball scene? It was just so unexpected. Had a good time though!

Developer (2 edits)

Thanks for playing!
The idea after the yarn ball was to come back to the main menu, but somehow the mouse gets stuck in the middle of the screen if i just load the menu scene, i can't solve the bug so i made it to close to avoid problems for players (i guess it's a common bug in first person 3d games, but that's my first game in 3d).

Thanks! I was afraid that no one find it fun to play,  that makes me feel relieved.
