Holy crap this is one of the best games I've played so far for this jam! Very simplistic but fun and addicting! Cat audio really enhanced the experience. Also loved the little collectibles. My only critique would be to make the cat not reset if hitting a wall or only stretch yourself halfway depending on how long you hold a direction but I can understand if that would take a lot of extra coding or is simply part of the challenge and I appreciate that time being spent more on levels and gameplay. For how long the game is the music did get pretty repetitive.
Also I did smash myself into the ground with the yarn ball by accident lol and I didn't realize there was a death counter until spamming the restart button on the menu for the sound effect XD
Thank you for playing! We originally tried to do what you suggest having the cat stretch halfway, but unfortunately we weren't skilled enough to get that working within the timeframe and ended up with what you see here. Likewise for the music. But both of those things we would be excited to update once the jam is over. Thanks for the feedback! :)
this is a really cool platformer. I really enjoyed this game and all the levels.
This is a surprisingly tricky platformer! I will say I didn't realize you could move _without_ stretching at first which made things a lot harder
*Insert spiderman meme*
Great game, with good ideas with the stretch concept !
Little games but not very important
Maybe there is the visual art to upscale
a difficult game with a cute artstyle and an adorable mechanic! i love it ❤️
I really liked it, but in level 4 if you made a mistake, because you don't know what you need to do, you need to do so much over and just see your death counter going up.
I like the stretching of the cat and the wooly ball is awesome. Overall it's a bit of a Yoshi like experience. Well done.
Great concept and nice graphics! I really enjoyed it. Stretching the cat is a simple concept to understand but you have to get used to it, which makes it interesting to play around.
The stretch movement with the cat is spot on— it feels really satisfying, and the sounds are great too. The physics with the boxes are a bit clunky, but overall, it's a very lovely experience.
The stretch and pop glide was very satisfying! Love the sfx for it too. I couldn't get past lvl 2 lol but would have enjoyed having a lot of objects in the way with chaotic physics since flinging yourself into the box was fun
The cat was very cute. I like that you can hold down the arrow key to just keep the long cat long, and playing with the colliders of the objects while stretching the cat into it was fun. Something to keep in mind is the viewport (might just be me), as it was too big for my window and made it harder to see things and move around. (I also wasn't sure how to use the air wave, so I just kept spamming left and right arrow keys lol) Overall, very cute and fun game with new mechanics every level. Great job!
STRETCH CAT!!!! The mechanics were fun and I love the SFX. Great work
Pretty cool game. I noticed you can move and stretch the cat at the same time. It kinda makes a gliding movement. But impressive, nonetheless. Fun game. Great Entry!
