The art style was cool, the platforming was solid, and the cat fighting system was interesting, but the game was WAY too short. Also the background music was very repetitive.

Good game but a little bit awkward to control. The animations play too fast too.

Your web link sends me to gamejolt which only lets me download the game or "quick play" which is just a slightly faster download the game. :(

The physics and animations were way too fast. Maybe it's just my computer. But interesting gameplay and graphics! Nice job!

Nice concept and nice colour scheme. Attacking the cats was a bit finnicky, but overall the game was a good experience.

Mechanics are a bit clunky, but the graphics and audio are quite charming!

GUYS PROTIP the key to winning encounters is to hold up and wait for cats to come to you. Guaranteed success.

Great package overall! A fighting mechanic like this is difficult to get just right for everyone; I feel that for me (I'm not a twitch player), it's hard to time the jumps just right so that I'm on top of jumping white cats. With a bit of tweaking (perhaps some hangtime in air?), I can see players really getting into mastering the mechanic.

You have my word I'll be tweaking this until it feels just right, thanks a lot Crigs, loved your game.

Nice first game! Like the style and simple jazz riff for music.

When I reached the first cat the game froze for me. I used Gamejolt's quick play option.

Couldn't get it to work when I downloaded for windows, but it looks nice from the screenshots!

Pretty fun. The hitboxes on the other cats feel a little off, though.

A pretty fun game! Good job getting a music loop done in time, added to the atmosphere. Not so sure about how it connects with the theme, and the cats' hitboxes are quite a bit bigger than the sprites, leading to a couple of frustrating deaths. Overall a fun game though :)

Thanks a lot for the comments everybody! Sadly I have a mac so I couldn't play all of your games :C I really appreciate all the feedback, it's been great for me. I've never made a game before but from now on I wont miss a LD.
