I finished the game, A good fast paced experience. I enjoyed it, Keep up your good work.
Thank you for your feedback!! :))))
Really enjoyed! Game play was very engaging. lighting and sound effects on the chase was cool.
Found three of the cages but that fourth was taking a long time. Some navigation aid would of been nice. Possible a central landmark you could journey N/S/E/W from or mushroom that glowed on collision at crossroads to aid future decision making.
Thank you for the feedback, Terry! I'll look into updating the game so it doesn't take as long to find all cages :D
Liked the cat and mouse gameplay. Was a cool play.
Thank you for your feedback! :D
