That was an interesting game but I had literally no idea what to do. I prob. spent 10 minutes in the tutorial and still don’t know what to do. I saw that the cats get +1 and -1 but prob. I am too dumb to see any patterns. The concept is pretty unique and I liked the graphics. I also liked this compendium and I would have loved to discover the entries of it! The music annoyed me after some time. I had some cat selection problems. (clicking on them but they are not taken) No Performance Issues.

Useless personal comment: I dont like dead cats :(

The art and the music are very nice, I like the design of the cats very much. The concept is really unique, as well as the use of the theme. But  I think you should make a tutorial for new players, since it took me quite a while to understand what I had to do.

Overall, great job! Congrats!

The music and art was really nice, as well as the use of the theme, but I didn't understand what I was supposed to be doing, put the cats in the same order as one of the 3 boxes above?  But they kept changing. Maybe a tutorial with fewer ghosts and shorter string would have made it easier to learn

Seems like a neat idea, but I didn't quite have the patience or dedication required to learn the cats or figure out the strategies. 

I guess I might have liked a more obvious happiness indicator over cats that were already content. (at least on the super easy mode)

Really enjoyed the art and music, as well as the ending to the game. A fantastic first GWJ entry. Nice job! I thought the game play was super unique.

Very cute concept and aesthetics. It wasn't super clear to me at first though.

Really original concept, I love the idea of dead cats collecting the ghosts of their nine previous lives. This narrative comes with really cool visuals.

I had a bit of trouble understanding what to do at first, there is a lot of information passing through the screen.

Great game overall, congrats! :)

At first I was kinda lost and didn't know what to do, but after some time it turned out to be the game I had the most fun playing so far. Simple and complex at the same time, but in a fun way! Great job!
