Push The Cat is an adorable letter/navigation puzzle. It's similar to 'Baba is You' in its mechanics, but is also entirely its own thing! For cat-lovers and logophile's alike, this game is a real brain-teaser wrapped in cat evangelism.

I fell in love with this game really fast! I'm not a cat person, but this definitely gave me 'Baba Is You' vibes. I especially appreciated how much personality went into all of the text; even though it was just another mechanic of the game. This was really well done!
The puzzles were challenging, albeit frustrating at times, but I was able to get all the way back to the main menu!
If I could make a suggestion; I think being able to access a menu would benefit the game a lot. I was afraid to exit the game (took me 2 sittings to play) for fear I'd lose my progress.

The creativity goes hand-in-hand with the gameplay in this instance. Having the letters be the controls was creative, clever, and... there are just so many layers of creativity here, and I love it!

You did a great job making the sentences part of the game. I'm giving 4 stars because I can't imagine that was very easy to pull off! I feel like there could have been audio, music, or maybe even some added visuals to enhance the experience; but you did an amazing job with what you had!
