I don't like that I have to kill the poor kitties... It's also a bit weird that the player is also a cat. Missed an oppertunity by having 9 lives... 😉
It feels a bit too repetitive, and the cats are in the same locations and there are the same number of them. But yes.... that is a loop.
Also I don't quite feel you had a pickaxe... that item was a sledge hammer... I also didnt quite understand the pointing where the mouse is part, seemed a bit weird... and didn't quite understand what it added to the game...
But OH MY the cat animations were really cute!
The music was also quite lovely and playful too.
