The most dangerous trip you might take! The big yarn monsters will harm you with heavy punch and hit you out of the carriage. Survive from the OVERCROWDED metro carriage until you reach the final destination.

The game’s main idea is to try your best to STAY ON the subway, not to be pushed down by crowd before you reach your destination! The awkward control make things even more terrible, player must find a proper way to control the character to get the destination! What’s worse, you must push yourself out of the subway when you get the destination….

* Gameflow is short, and at the end of the game, there will be some interesting plots show to players.* * Don't miss it *

Q/W: Stretch Left/Right Arm

E/R: Stretch Left/Right Leg

* (If you have difficulty finishing the game There is Cheat Mode: Press Tab to be FIXED and INVULNERABLE) *

Hello!
Cute, even though non easy to control. I like the atmosphere.
Good job finishing the game.

The backgrounds were nice, and the jello effect on the yarn balls looked great! I started to get the hang of controlling the cat, then I realized that I could just sit in the top left corner and keep tapping W to basically become untouchable, and I started to abuse that and got bored. I wasn't sure if it went on forever or not, but I didn't make it to the end.

I liked the controls (after getting used to them)--I'd like to see these controls/character applied to other game ideas too!

@jamison Thanks for your play and return!!Actually the yarn balls are randomized.So yesterday when I tried to stay at the corner, I was surrounded by yarn balls and died soon....Maybe next time I should change the AI of yarn balls a little!
And there is something interesting at the ending!Maybe you will like it~

That's great! The graphic is nice and the music really fit the game.
The gameplay is hilarious and if the enemy also has some health bar and can be hurt by my punch.. Ha! Then the gameplay will be even funnier!
I think anyone who experienced the real rush hour will want to do that😂

Very interesting approach. I like the style of the game, however controls are difficult to master or maybe its just me :P, also noticed that buttons at starting screen are working when hovering just below them instead of on the text. Very cool game all in all, audio is also great!

Nice concept and some stunning art and extra points for mood with the feeling and story. The gameplay was quite random but there was always something to do. Good job!

Nice idea an concept, the music is fitting but the possibility of hanging in the roof kinda makes it easy, try to limit the times you can jump and reset it when touching the floor.

@iarzu Good idea! I'll have a try!
@rayriver Yeah....It's really hard to control the game difficulty for the stupid random gameplay...But You can use Tab key to enter cheat mode!
@awix I'll! Thanks!

Really love the art style of this game! Super cute. Also really like the music :) for me my only complaint is that it seemed like the window was perhaps cut off for me. Perhaps that's intended? Either way, solid entry! Well done!
