Game really looks about as polished as it can be. Love how the soundtracks sound like Coots is constantly meowing

I came for the Coots, and stayed for the butthole
I don't think there's a better looking game, the style is so well done and with all the different pieces of furniture it's amazing how nothing feels out of place ^^
I wish there was another level but looking at the ones you have, it's clear those levels are very well thought out and a lot of fun!

Coots Stream DreamsAwe thanks so much! Like you've said I spent three days alone pretty much drawing the art for, working on, designing, and testing, and then adjusting the second level so it really wasn't possible to do a third unless I was planning to spend more than 3 sleepless night on it xD my body isn't that strong at my age haha! (If you count the tutorial, there's totally three pfff)~
Im SO glad you're happy with the art and makes the sheer amount of grinding pixels worth it! It was my first real time doing isometric so it was a bit dicey there for a minute getting it to FIT together the first few days!
I really like the art reminds me of the nitrome flash games a bit. Though the bouncing felt a bit too frustrating at times because of how strong it was

Coots Rescue MissionThanks for the feedback, we actually had turned it down a bit from what it was before and tried our best to balance the game in a way that most players would be able to enjoy it and at least beat the first if not the slightly harder second level (though with a bit of practice it's definitely doable I believe in you)! If it helps put your mind at rest we are thinking about adding multiple difficulties post gamejam- this was unfortunately, not possible for the 10 day timeframe so we could only try to balance it to the best of our ability!
Really, REALLY good looking for the time limit. Gets really annoying at times but I LOVE IT, Great work!

Rollin' Coots - LudJam VersionThis is awesome! Great concept, music, and art direction! I really enjoyed my time playing it. Great work!

Coots' CrucibleThis was really fun! I loved that the difficulty came from Coots running so fast that it’s hard to control. A lot of chaotic cat-like energy that fit the theme really well! The pixel art was also really great!

Super Auto CootsSuch a great game overall. The graphics were great, the gameplay was fun, and a very nice concept. Pretty much a Simulator of when a cat gets the zoomies.

Tame the Cootshaha i had fun struggling to destroy stuff xD it was also mega cute

Coots: Grand Slap Animal BoutIt's super interesting seeing the different experiences, a lot of people beat both first try and a lot also don't! We did our best to try and balance it as best as possible, the second level was increased by 30 seconds and we reduced our original bounciness!
The trick is to go slower once you near your objective, once you get used to it im sure you'll be drifting like a pro! I belive in ya!
Nice work! Super cute and just frustrating enough. Really captures the emotion of getting a cat to do the right thing (or wrong thing I guess?)

Amazing game! The art style is very cute and the gameplay was so fun. Great job!
I hope you can rate my game too https://itch.io/jam/ludwig-2023/rate/1939936
We originally had one planned but there really wasn't enough time in our schedules despite myself and Evan staying up for multiple all-nighter! TT^TT
BUT you're right! This is definitely one thing high up on my to do list for post jam! Hopefully you still were able to enjoy the graphics in the state we managed to get them to still <3 I tried really hard for you wonderful people, thanks SO much for playing our game!
