I spent way too long on the graphics, so unfortunately there is only one level and no sound at all. Plus the title is just weird.\r\n\r\nThe plan was to have different cats, each granting different abilities or power-ups. In the end there is just one, and it stops the Deathbots from shooting you but also causes them to come and give you a deadly hug. You must either be good at dodging them, or put the cat down to draw the Deathbots away from the exit.\r\n\r\nIts pretty freaking easy, but I feel like I've laid the ground for some deeper gameplay mechanics that would make for a more challenging game.\r\n\r\nEagle eyed players might note that I've been stylistically inspired by a game whose name rhymes with Sportal (even down to the exit signs on the floor!). I turned up the cuteness to 11 though.\r\n\r\nThis was my first Ludum Dare compo entry. I hope you enjoy it.<\/p>","title":"Deathbot Love"}
