Ranked from 30 ratings. Score is adjusted from raw score by the median number of ratings per game in the jam.

How does your game fit the theme?
The cat character needs to collect points, which causes it to scale up in size. The bigger the size, the bigger the energy attack it would produce to destroy its enemies. A 3D take of the classic SNAKE game with Enemies thrown in the mix.

Neat implementation of the theme. Nice work!

Animation is well made but forgive me, as you get bigger I feel like it looks more dog like than cat. It's a great arcade style game.

Got to 41,000!

I wish you could've seen how my cats reacted to the sound of the meows in this game - they were so confused!

I think a bit less gray would've made the scene easier to see, but I love how you had the health bar just be the color of the cat's lights!

I love the art design in this game, both graphics and music. Very good!

Loved the PS1 GFX / style.
Fun gameplay. Very addictive.

I would have loved better camera controls. Camera was too close to the cat.

I like this game. The tactics is actually deep, kiting big groups of enemies, timing when to pick powerups, noting positions of powerups for planned attacks later... There is a lot to it. My biggest concern is the camera placement. Main tool seems so be kiting the enemies, letting them close then exploding them. That way enemies are mostly behind the player, and camera seems to be too close so that you can't see the eneimes, and they can close the distance and kill you before you notice and react. Aside from that, after some practice I started to go backwards to control the crowd and achieved 80k+ score, and I enjoyed the experience. 
The graphics is cool, nice combination of low-res and low-poly, creates a solid look of retro-pc, I like that. Level design is good, a lot of places to gain advantage and risk-reward dead ends. 
Congrats on making a cool entry!

Cheers mate! 😁

Unreal Engine games are large by default 😂But to be fair; I went very easy with compression as this is actually my smallest game yet in terms of Disk Size :O

I'll take note that I'll always go full throttle with Compression on Jam Submissions, cheers ^^
