The cat while fat is so similar to mine haha.
Great game and super beautiful art. Controls are responsive and the levels are well design. Only one of them I feel I have cheesed by going in with the correct height to already be able to do the solution with fewer steps
Fun fact, every level forces you to a certain size before you can exit. I didn't want to implement it as a system so we did it in level design instead! You're probably thinking about levels 5 and 6, but you can go to level select and see for yourself, you can't really exit 5 as a kitten. That middle section is intentionally not very hard because we wanted to make sure players have mastered the mechanics before throwing hard levels at them.
Clean and polished with great music. The level design was really good, especially near the end really had some head scratchers!
This game is so dang adorable! The cute little cat noises melted my heart a bit, and the puzzles were great! Outstanding game!
cute and chill! i like it
Cute game and good puzzles!
so cute big cat!
I loved the ghibli style kitty and how he changes shape and sound. Very cute. I would add a little bit of a diff in pitch for each walking sound so it won't sound so repetitive. Fun puzzles! and hilarious name for Russian speakers :)
I was googling if any English words actually start with ko- when I came up with the name and merriam-webster suggested kopeck and kovsh ;)
Very polished game and good concept. A undo button would be great, don't think it would take away from the puzzles just help when you accidentally knock something. In any case a great looking game.. good luck with the Jam!
100% agree about undo button. I would probably attempt it, but decided to spend some of my time on level design instead. Might add it after the jam is over
I love love love the cat! Also the color palette of this game is so nice, I really enjoy seeing it. I am not a dungeon crawler myself but the temple is easy to navigate for beginner and have a nice curve of progression per level. Also love that our cat is exactly one square size for the small version, very cute. Good job for the game!
Wow the game is soooo fun ! I love the puzzle and the Indiana Jones style !! It start easy but quickly get harder to solve. Yeah very cool game congrats !!
nice vibe and art!
I enjoy games that feature cats, especially when they combine adorable puzzles with charming visuals >///<
Great game. Execution of the theme is very well done. 5* across the board
Very fun puzzle game. Arts and sounds are awesome!
Cute!
Very nice visual style, and interesting mechanics
solid puzzle game, only irk was the gap between moves was a little bit too long for me
Great game! The controls are very intuitive and the design perfectly adheres to the theme. Also, the grapichs is laid out beautifully.
