This game was really fun! Great art style, and story. I like how the cat was both an animal tied to gameplay AND a projectile. Very clever take on the rating criteria.
My only caveat would be that the cat was constantly killing himself. Especially during the at the 3x3 throwing puzzle. I must have died 100 times. If he had some kind of collision check during the logic to follow the player I think that would go a long way.
Anyways, great work! I really loved your submission!
