As a prototype I can see a lot of potential here, especially on mobile. I hope you keep developing this and I think it's clear it will need a lot of polish, especially around the item grabbing\/movement as that will need to be really tight and clean in order to not get frustrated. There were a couple times where an object just disappeared when I touched it. But overall, I really like this one.

The platform seems to go away after a while, but it kind of break the mechanics, since you only need to worry about getting one platform every once in a while. Maybe you should make them disappear faster.\n\nAbout catching mice, maybe it was me, but I didn't notice any side effects regarding eating\/not-eating a mouse other than the challenge of getting them. Am I missing something?\n\nThe generated music was really cool!\n\nAlso, I ran the game in a browser (Chrome) and sometimes it was a bit difficult to grab and drag the objects. Seems like it was a performance issue.\n\nGreat job!\n","likes":0,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"matt2728","author_uid":"1193044","time":"2020-04-20T13:09:19Z","epoch":1587388159,"modified":1587388159,"text":"Great job!

I had a couple of times where my cat seemed to get stuck as managed to get a trashcan stuck on their head. The most effective technique I had was to just grab one of the support beams and continually (without letting go) just drag it under the cat as it allowed me to keep it and would always move just under them. Personally I would drop the scrolling speed just ever so slightly to give a little bit more time for response.","likes":0,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Endurion","author_uid":"1009853","time":"2020-05-03T08:36:03Z","epoch":1588494963,"modified":1588494963,"text":"Nice idea, and sounds and feels good.\n\nHowever I had a few problems with the physics.
