Old Hag VS Cat by sankacoffee51
Hello Fellow Gamers,
Small synopsis of my game:
You are an old hag, so in love with cats that they multiply in the flat at an incredible rate. You need to feed them with food and water. The beginning seems simple, but it gets difficult to access the Sink and the Closet with all those cats around.
WASD: Movement
F: Take food or drink when in front of closet or sink
F: Deposit food and drink in the bowl
Esc: Pause and menu
Drag with left mouse button to turn view around
I decided to participate on a whim, while having an already well occupied week-end, and I managed to pull off something somewhat playable within my limited timeframe.
My tools for this session were:
A few generic textures I personally made
Unity
Blender
Gimp
Inkscape
Audacity
My cats
For music:

OpenMPT
I went mad trying to add fur, thus the few cat colors available (have a with textures, must train this)
Have fun!!!!

Man, the controls were bad though! I hope you know you can just look down until your character is upside down... but maybe that just adds to the charm.
However, though I get the reason for the sluggish controls, but I still think that the physics should be accurate enough (I got a little stuck at some point) to clearly navigate the scene. After all, the point is navigating through the cats right?
Pretty humorous and fits the theme quite well.
Awesome!
My favorite part was when a bunch of the cats suddenly ran to the food dish for the first time.
Cat's meow and their behaviour drove me crazy =)
I would have rated this a lot lower if it wasn't so damn funny. The AI of the cats is interesting. Their walk is very glitchy, but also very funny to watch. Also, they constantly launch into the air, especially near the feeding/drinking bins.
Another funny thing, for some reason you can walk faster going sideways then forward. Is the old lady a crab? She can also hold quite a few items.
Anyway, I really liked it.
Keep it up.
@thijs-tak The cats jump fairly randomly and on certain collisions too ^^ I'll look into better movement for future games! More items make carried make movement slow down, I had to let the lady carry a certain amount for it to make sense.
@scott-steffes you saw the food craving mode when their health is low that make them go straight for the food :cat:
I would be lying if I said the sound design wasn't somewhat mesmerizing :D
The game was kind of fun, but next time maybe filter some of the sounds?
Unless that was 100% intentional, then you nailed it!
I liked it, even if I don't understand why...
Good luck, Don't forget to take a look at ours if you don't mind and see what it's like when we just focused on graphics in this game jam!
