Nice work on this. Its really challeging to catch the mice so the death explosion is quite satifying. The map feels way too big since I spent most of the time just moving straight. Fun game, great idea and nice ending. GGWP!

Haha, was laughing super hard at the mice rolling around. Super awesome concept. It was a bit disorienting that the mice stayed the same size regardless of distance. Just took a sec to get used to. Awesome game!

Agree with previous comment. Map was too big, but the game and concept was hilarious. I love it. Well done!

The purring engine noises are genius :) it was quite difficult to catch any rats (only managed 2 in about 10 minutes of play), but right from the start it was lots of fun! Nice work!

You might want to add a Windows download link to the "Downloads and Links" section -- right now it only shows source code, which might make some raters think there's no executable to download.

Super fun game! :D I was purring like a madman, the sensation of speed was really satisfying and I liked how hard the controls were, congratulations!

Haha I love that the cats nose and whiskers are visible :D I also like the eerie feeling... a mouse scared me when I came close to it the first time... It was much harder than I thought it would be, but I got them all! Good idea, and good work! :)

edit: forgot to add a picture of my cat helping me catch the mice.. ![boyd-hjaelper.jpg](///raw/5d5/e1/z/1f5e9.jpg)

The mice models were hilarious. The physics crazy. Cat motor sound weird :D I didn't make it to the sacrifice, the mice were too fast for me :) Is the Moon burnt into the cat's eyes? GOOD JOB, made me laugh hard!

I love the sounds a lot, especially the purring sounds! It is actually a quite hard game!

Quite difficult to control, like trying to drive an F-1 racecar on ice. Maybe that is the point, though? I feel like this could be really fun if there was a way to control the cat a bit better (spent several minutes trying to chase down mice only to veer very slightly off course since the steering controls were so awkward), and also if there was a 3rd-person camera. I like the sense of speed and scale that the 1st-person camera offers, but it is a bit weird to have the camera so dang close to the ground (maybe intended?)
