Hey there slimmmeiske2, I got your game for judging so here are some of my thoughts. I was in love with the artstyle you chose from the first moment, and getting to play as a cat was fun! Not knowing exactly what the kids were saying made sense since I was a cat, but I know kid reactions well enough to be able to guess what the girl said when she saw the cat. Finding the balls of yarn rewarded my exploration, and actually pushed me to do more QTEs (and fail once they got too fast) which was a clever move of your part.
I do wish the QTEs were a bit more varied though. Even if you stuck with the bar QTE, having the start point be different could have made things more interesting. Like when jumping up a cliff the pointer would start at the bottom instead of always at the top. I ended up abusing the night vision to get through the fog mazes since I was running out of time, but I did like that they could be solved with just time and exploration.
Varying the QTE speed a bit more could also be a neat idea. After a few successful QTEs I would fail on purpose just to slow it down again, but if it the speed was a bit more random I may have tried harder to succeed since there would be a chance that the QTE still felt doable. That would have taken some time to get working right though, and with the contest deadline I totally understand why something like that wouldn't be possible.
Overall, great job! If you had more time I'm sure you could fixed up some of the minor issues, but they didn't distract too much from how enjoyable this game was.
