The typing mechanic is fun, but I found that after 2 entries it stopped for accepting input for me, it could be my laptop or because I used the online version, not sure. But the mechanic definitely works.

Thanks for the feedback! I'm trying to figure out why so many people are having trouble after a couple of rounds, I cannot recreate this issue... I wonder if it's not clear enough that you can only give commands to cats! In round 2, the player must command a cat to get milk from a cow, then give the milk to a snowman, then they must use a cat again to take the ice cream from that snowman and give it to a frog. No going directly from cow to snowman or snowman to frog. That's my best guess as to what is going wrong, someone let me know otherwise please! And thanks again!
I actually really enjoyed the typing mechanic with this game, but it did have some drawbacks. Sometimes i'd type to share something, make a small typing error, and then spend a few seconds trying to figure out why it wasn't working/retyping the whole thing. Some form of auto complete/command suggestion/buttons to do commands would definitely help this game shine even more than it already does. I think this was a really interesting take on the limitation, awesome job!
This is very cute, I am always a sucker for a black cat character! This was a very good take on the theme, but I think the typing held this game back a bit. It either needed some text in the corner with all the options you can type, or interactions should've just been with buttons. But overall very cute, I love the art style and theme use!
I absolutely love the gameplay concept of this game, it's very creative and fits so well with the limitation. With that said, I had a lot of issues playing the game, the game screen was too large and the text box wouldn't work a lot of times. Maybe think about adding an UI, like a box, so that it's easier to interact with. Overall, nice game!!
