Took me a hot minute to figure out that the reason I was losing so fast was that both bananas and strawberries, fruits which are frequently used as ingredients in deserts, count as not sweets. Super cute art tho!

Cute. :D Once I figured out how you run it got a lot easier. :)
The game looks cute, really liked the kitten. The gameplay could have more to it, exploring more of the running abillity making the game harder. Sometimes you run without double tapping to the right direction, I think the running works if you quickly tap A and then D or vice-versa. This makes the cat run in situations when you didn't want to. It's a very simple and charming game, congratulations on getting it done :)
Hi! Thanks you for the kind words :) Our kitten artist is very good😎 The run ability is activated after double-tap and has a cooldown of 3-4 seconds, i think. Run ability just doubles your speed for a short amount of time. I would have liked to add some heavier fruits and sweets for faster reaction time. Another mechanic could be a hunger meter, that way a player is required to catch sweets and avoid vegetables
This game looks so cute and I love the music.
This would be perfect for mobile (the aspect ratio would also fit).
At the first moment I didnt know I had to avoid cucumbers, but later I figuredes out
The atmosphere is cute and I love it! The music and the art flow perfectly together. You did great work as a team!
One problem is, that you actually break the jam limitation. As KingW said, only two buttons are allowed for the entire game. This goes for menus as well. Still I hope this doesn't get removed, since it's kind of a small violation anyway.

I want to hug this kitty! The game is so cute! Great job for the music as well!
Hi! Thank for playing our game :D I added a little bit of difficulty increase each 500 points in the last moment but seems like it didn't impact much on the first few minutes of gameplay . I'll try to think more on the timer mechanic(like a combo meter?), maybe add heavier fruits that will fall very fast from the counter.
