Its very cool how you changed the sprite with the body parts you lose. Cant seem to get past giant spike pit on 2nd level.

Congrats on the game! Pretty neat concept, and the inclusion of the aesthetic changes to the sprite was a nice touch! I think having to restart each time I lost a heart became a little overbearing, but I actually enjoyed seeing how the next death would affect gameplay, haha! I think you've got some interesting ideas happening here.

Pro:
- really really really great mood with the visuals and the music
- solid platforming
- good take on the theme

Con:
- could use some more sounds
- may needs some indications for the spikes

Super tense, really good platformer. Nice :smile:

The best achievement of this game is the animation after losing parts, that was great. It would be super nice if you rebound jump to something more traditional like space or the up arrow, it took me awhile to figure out it was C and I thought the game was broken until I did.

Great game. Losing body parts which affect the gameplay was a great idea. I had fun with it, although there was a bug which made the cat floating around in the air, and I couldn't get back on the ground. Good job nonetheless.

@acactus at the last day of the event i had to redo the maps and by mistake I removed a way of going over this pit without double jump, which wasn't intended. Player was meant to use the path over the pit, but in the current version it's too high up to reach there :upside_down:

Im not really a cat person, but poor cat.

The thematic set with the graphics and the music is on point. Really dismal.

I could see this game fits not only the theme of this jam, but the previous one (sacrifices must be made).

The controls are ok, but i think they should be a little more smooth, it would help avoid some dumb deaths from me.

Good job!
