Fun game, I played through all the levels although I mostly skipped the dialogue (not much of a dialogue reader)

The platforming works well and I liked the meowing mechanic that created a puzzle-like element to the stealth gameplay. I think the mechanic could be fleshed out a bit more to make it more consistent and create more fun gameplay scenarios, but its a strong start.

For some examples of what I mean: the sight radius once you've been spotted is a bit too big in relation to the size of the level, it's nearly impossible to get out of being detected once spotted except when there's a box. The meowing could be changed to only attract guards that are close enough to hear, having every guard suddenly start moving when I meow makes the levels more rigid to design.


Also two tidbits about the dialogue system:

1. whilst the text is being written, pressing space skips to the next sentence rather than just skipping the 'typing' animation to display the full sentence

2. the last sentence of any piece of dialogue doesn't close for a good few seconds. this meant I couldn't just skip through the text to get to the levels. It's especially tedious when the text kept repeating at the start of certain levels that I'd die & restart several times


overall, thanks for the submission I hope you had fun making it and continue to experiment in other jams!

Thanks a lot for playing the game through all the levels and taking the time to give a feedback! I'll try to address the aforementionned issues:

  • Dialogues: this was one of our biggest challenges. We tackled this part towards the end of the jam and noticed afterwards the dialogues were a little bit broken. Thanks for the advice though! It's going to help me figure out how to fix it.
  • Sight Radius: We had some discussions about this matter and decided to go with what we implemented. This helped us building challenging levels without too much coding in such a short period of time. If we had done differently, the whole game would have been different. And we believe, would have been too much challenging to us to design and implement in time.

We don't really know if we can update our game for fixing these bugs before the end of the jam, but we will for sure as soon as it ends. :)

Dialogue bug fixed and button for skipping dialogues added!!! thanks a lot for your feedback
