Cutest Weapon by rzfmzn

[raw]
made by rzfmzn for LD32 (JAM)
One day, some people decided that they did not want to live anymore, they just climbed the window, looking down to the street when suddenly...
MEOW MF!
It is cute!
It is furry!

INSTANT LOOOOOVEEE!

Just go inside and pet the little bastard for a while! :D


We use a cat shooting weapon to make people give up suicide! Cats are pure love!

We tried to make a game that showed the power of a pet, they ask for nothing but your love and care!

I think the controls can be improved, the keyboard mapping is a bit awkward. But great idea, i love the sound effects...meow, purrrrr. My mom lost one of her cats last week, so this theme is really touching. Thank for the laughs and the feels. :)

Nice choice of weapon! Good fun - although slightly morbid...

Well executed game, love the cats as "weapons". I'll repeat what someone else said that the control mapping is really odd and awkward. Changing the controls to something more standard (WASD, space to fire cats) would go a long way to improving this.

Still, I enjoyed the game. Great job.

If only we could shoot cats at people to make them feel better in real life... actually that might work, haha! :)

I can't seem to fire at any of the depressed teenagers. Don't know what the Grim Reaper is doing there either. Really good art and music though!

Weird controls, felt weird to move around and to shoot (I had to come back to this page to see what was the button to use the cat). I'm still not sure what is going on with the weird ghostly figure, I tried throwing cats at it to no avail.

Gosh, I'll be very surprise if I find an entry more cute than this. <3
Very well done!
A thing that could be improved, is that at first I thought that in the middle it had a stair, just after a while a got it that I was suppose to be just on the windows.

Very cute and fun. Getting to choose a level is quite nice, as the first ones were a bit too easy for my taste. :)

I saw the thumbnail and new: I must play!
The idea and concept are great, but the game itself needs some polish. I also glitched out some teenagers and fire through them^^

Ha, very nice! Love the music and the sound effects - as others have said, changing the controls (at least move shooting to keyboard) would make it much more comfortable.

Hey, I'm Rodrigo Oliveira, from IGDA Curitiba;)

Pretty cool (and cute) game! I got a little stuck on the end of some levels (when rescuing all chars), but no problem at all.

It can be interesting if we can shoot the Death with a cat sometimes too, to see her reaction :p

Haha, certainly unconventional! It's a clever idea. The graphics were good--I love the characters--though there wasn't much animation as such. The music was catchy, the sound was fine. The gameplay wasn't exactly innovative, but it was good enough. I feel like it could use some more polish, more varied levels and make it easier to go up and down (especially down), but overall a good job!
