the content warnings both in the game and in the page mention pet illness and death, and this was tagged as "tragedy" for a reason. I believe I've been quite transparent that this was going to be a very small, short, sentimental game...?

If you want something different, then I suggest you look at games with the appropriate tags or learn make your own to fit your own tastes, it can be quite fun. cheers.

I didn't read any tags, just jumped in. I imagined it might be a game about a cat helping the owner or vice versa, not merely climbing stairs with dialogue and two options, either to trust or look back.

While I didn't notice tags in the game (I did notice the pet illness thing), I went back to the listings for browser-based games and saw no tags. In fact, I have to click to show more information before being given "Animals, mythology, Short, tragedy" tags. None of this has anything to do with my concerns. Perhaps I missed that this was going to be a "sentimental" game in the game itself.

Looks like this just isn't a game for you, buddy. Considering you missed the larger themes of the game and cannot engage with the design of the game, why not just move on and find a game you actually like or make something you actually will like? No need to put down other players who resonated with the experience either. It's not for you, and that's fine. Go find something you'll actually enjoy.

Anyway, good luck on future searches. I won't be replying anymore to this thread, cheers.

Yes I can see why. Maybe you're the "nice" type who appreciates praise or feedback in line with your priorities and doesn't like criticism of the kind of game you set out to make, something so seemingly basic that it's not very interesting to someone who hopes for something more.

Suggesting you gave warnings that were buried in a drop-down description or even suggesting I missed the "larger themes" is a bit silly, kind of like this game. I'm sure lots of people who played this and commented really feel a weakness for their cats and other pets, and that's cute.

But... don't you think it's a little odd for you to suggest I might "move on" when your game seems to be about the opposite? I play games for distraction, to pass the time to let myself grow stronger until I'm ready to be my best. I hope that a seemingly quality game like yours pretends to be would have just a little more depth and a little less... earnest sentimentality.

But perhaps I've tied you up enough when you're moving onto other things. Best of luck in all your future endeavours, SummerOrigins. Let the kitty litter fall where it may.

Dude... if you didn't like it, it probably wasn't made for you. All of that is up to taste, this game is about loss and when you need to accept death is going to come.

TLDR: it's not that deep play something els

I was just replying to the replies from the developer. I'm not any more fixated on this game than it requires to reply meaningfully.

I replayed the game a couple more times (and found the second ending, I think, looking back earlier) but I don't think you said it was going to be "sentimental".

Anyway, this is a good-looking game. Good luck with it and any future projects.
