It wasn't clear that I was progressing at all? I guess the progress resets when you die (live?) but the levels mostly look the same so it's hard to tell (even after winning twice in a row) that anything is changing. I did eventually manage to win though!
The monkey shooting health is a funny idea, but functionally it works the exact same as if it was doing damage to you, the health bar is just a damage bar instead. I wonder if there is a way to make healing be negative without running into this issue...? :thinking:

We haven't done the "Game over" UI so yeah, you can see just a flash of "You Win" screen. And then the game resets.
The balance is too difficult I know. In 'Kill the monkey lvl' especially. Thats sad :)

We also didnt finish such feature as feedback on TNT level progress. And thats too bad for understanding of what player should do in this game.
@joeshanahan
You are absolutely right. It works the same as if Monkey doing damage to Cat. And I'm sure there is another way of negative healing. But in this game we need just this feature. There were another ideas instead. Like spawning positive (negative) objects in the box. Slowing you down or stopping you for a second. There a lot of possibilities here. But it takes time. So not today :)
And thats so pleasant some people understand the narrative idea of the game. Amazing!
If cat die by the end of game match, few seconds added to your timer untill you can explode the monkey. You could some scores for killing monkey.
If cat hasn't die by the time, your lost seconds of timer (example 0:30 before match ending 0:25 after)
