CatAstroFree by haxpor

[raw]
made by haxpor for LD27 (JAM)
A cat falls down from the real physical world 490 m above the ground, **that means it would takes 10 seconds for the cat to reach the ground.

There's a myth called Nine Live (see wiki http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nine_Lives) as before it actually died in physical world it goes into a virtual world to find the way out and live again. And this is your mission to cleanly avoid all obstacles and go directly to the ground in 10 seconds.

The catch is that the cat falls down from the space! Then you need to help it passes through each chunk of world!

- Control -
W A S D for movement (for block movement)
**Space** to activate ghost trick (slow down time) + **Mouse drag** obstacles object in any direction to clear your path (3 chances to do this).

Nice game although it took ages to load for some reason, maybe the asset size? The bullet time style mode was useful :)

@Nick Thanks for mentioning about loading time, we minimally concern that while we're building stuff. This is the first time I do something solid with Unity. Glad you like that mode :)

I really like this game. Its really cute and I enjoy falling down to the earth as a cat. I featured it in my compilation of Ludum Dare 27 games, if you want to check it out! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o8Polnsp4F8

@Soundless_dev Thanks! I moved the file to dropbox instead of putting at our own server. I hope it would make it loads faster.

Wow, have lot of laughs from this game. 8D Too random in levels sometimes, but maybe it for better here.

Okay, this is way cute haha!
There doesn't appear to be bounds/invisible walls, so cheating is very possible :O Awesome game!

damnet. extra points for cats. I also like the cat model and the atmospheric music. the movment could use some work. also letting me see a little better if i was about to get hit.

Lovely :) Like the nice variations of levels.

Fun! I just moved the cat out of the screen up top and got through all the levels pretty easy. Quite a few times I died before getting to do anything though

Solid basis! With a lot of potential. Currently it's a bit rough around the edges, but still fun.

Music fits nicely, and Ilike the sound-effects.

Controls are a bit wonky though. Mouse+Drag does nothing, and on level 2 the cat spawns inside the geometry more often than not and immediately fails.

Still, solid work!

Thanks for feedback guys!
@syradinegames It's bounded far away from the perspective from the camera, I would like to introduce some kind like a curiosity if they gone too far :) But thanks for your feeback.

@matthias_zarzecki Thank you so much! Sorry for that spawning situation to occurs, right now it's purely random in some ways. We will possibly work more on that in post-jam. :)

Finished!
It's amazing to see where cats can find themselves if left without supervision.

Great sound effects and music, but there are some bugs which others already pointed out... but there is still one unsolved mystery... what came first, the name or the gameplay :D

This game might be more fair if you used cube shapes like in stage 2 for all stages

Great graphics and music. I liked the ghost trick mechanic once I got the hang of it. The randomness could be tweaked a little, a few times I died straight away because there was an object right in front of me. Good fun though, well done!

Haha that song. I was doing fine until the christmas angel level. I couldnt get the object ghost grab to work successfully unfortunately.

The melody in level 2 sounds kinda like Legend of Aokigahara by ZUN. The music is pretty much what makes this so funny.

Or more like the audio in general, but yeah.
