Amazing little game, really enjoyed it, I can see this being released with additional levels, and maybe an extra feature or two, really great!

Good fun, really liked timing the jumps and rolling yourself out of a pit :P Would love to play more levels!

Very cute and fun :heart_eyes_cat:

The music made me feel like I was doing something bad though, instead of adding to a cuteness overload :scream_cat:

@johnbrynte oh nooo. I struggled composing something for this game, everything I came up with felt too serious for it. I thought I had come closer with this one :p

Time constraints man, they're too real D:

So good! I loved playing this. Really like the sound effects and just the general smoothness of it all. Feels very polished. Great work! :)

Cute fun game!

I completed the game, though not getting all cats on all levels.

First things first though. The game needs a quick reload feature. On first level I got stuck and could not find any reloading and had to restart the game. Could even have a HUD "Press R to reload" if the player didn't complete the level within the first 15s. And that is the other real simple fix. There's no way to exit the game.

Don't get me wrong. I really enjoyed playing the game.

The first level, the last "platform" could have been more forgiving (that's where I got stuck). It was the first level after all. And jumping off platforms, I had to replay many times just because I didn't agree with the game how late was OK to jump. And I'm expecting you could improve this with allowing player to jump a small time after the player has actually left the platform.

Good work. Really nice style and fun to play.

The idea is fun, and the graphics and the music is good. I would have liked a easy way too restart the levels, and the jumping mechanic was not always working. But overall a fun puzzle game. Well done.

Yay, physic game ! It's pretty fun, the level design is sometime clever. I love how you can always go back just by pressing jump, because ot the round platform (you can roll on one side, then more on the other, then more on the other, etc)

It's pretty short but it's fine ! =)
it's super cute, too ! :)

Nice little game! I included it in my Ludum Dare 40 compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look. :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m_cfsd64xFk
