Hilarious!

This is pure genius! I love it!

If I could give more than 5 for humor I would. I was getting some cat glitches though

Nice game :D

I soo like the idea, the art, the sounds.. but the gameplay itself? I am sorry, I did not get it :(

This game had such a fun spin on the loops theme! I really enjoyed the concept and gameplay although at the beginning I was taking a long time reading the introduction and the game started before I was ready. Maybe don't start the game until the player has clicked the okay on the introduction.

@ninnec Thank you so very much! We know about the cat glitches - we found out it depends mostly on the web browser. :/ May look into it when we update it. :)

Good presentation! Is there any goal except getting all the lööps? :)

@appoxgames There was an end game planned but, well, the time limit screwed us over. :laughing: At the moment, you can get all the upgrades and then just keep watching those cats losing weight - it's surprisingly relaxing (I found myself zoning out from time to time, just looking at the hordes of cats :laughing: )

We both did idle-styled games! I really like how laid back and chill yours is, and the cats are adorable. The progression feels very nice.

Ok. I stuck with it 😂

I adore the concept and the animations of the cats playing! The glitchy jittery cat movement before and after exercising made it hard for me to keep looking at the game, but a solid idle game apart from that.

I love it too!

Pretty funny cute animations and hilarious idea

Cute game, liked how you took the theme name quite literal :cat:
Wished if there were more decisions that I could make, other than that, you made a beautiful game:)

Loved the game and especially the cat sounds haha

Very interesting take on "Stuck in a Loop." The graphics were charming, and the music was nice without being too distracting. I went through 1500 cats and nearly 15 minutes of life that I'll never get back.

Well done for 72 hours!

(Also, is the music from some royalty-free site? It looks like you've opted out of Audio, but I don't see a source or anything)

I love the game, great idea!

@tamail Honestly, the glitches kind of made the thing absurd and thus more fun

Love the idea, love the humor, the gameplay a bit lacking. A good 10min game or a cookie clicker type background-game.

@jeremy-ryan It's Happy Adventure by TinyWorlds - royalty free song, it's credited at the Start screen, bottom middle. :)

Sorry for not getting back those 15 minutes! :sweat_smile:


Time well spent indeed. This is just hillarious XD

@ryuk47 This warms my little heart! :heart:

I love it.

fantastic game, and a nice take on clickers

I can't understand why I'm still playing this game. it's so hypnotic

ooooopps

You won't get many ratings if you keep your reviewers trapped in a loop!

Tell me your secrets!

This game is so so good I love it so much!! I was smiling the whole time. It's really well paced, very sweet, and the little meows made me very happy every time.

purrrfect game

Leaving this running on my second monitor while I play other game jam games.

Will post results later.

Update!

Got all the upgrades after 40 minutes. Still can't find any secrets, though :(

4220 cats... that's a lot of lööps they've eaten...

This is such a fun game. I realy like the idea and there is good background music. I would like to see a preview of the costs so i know how long to collect loops before upgrading or just boy a new position. For the rest perfect

this game was hilarious and also great fun, i didnt expect it to be so fun but i know that i can vibe to the music.

Very charming!

CATS ! All shapes of cats are beautiful

I like the game, i want to spend the time to see what's next :D

I love it XD
The music is a real hook

Idle games are a rare sight in this jam, especially given the theme. Good Job!

What did you do to my brain cells. Halp. Fun game, good job.

FAT CAT BAD CAT ! I loved this hahahah time well spent indeed. Really funny ! Good job wow

Love the maine coon character in keyart.

Well, I jumped onto the computer tonight to have a go on a few games... I started with this one, and I haven't got any further!! Addictive game play. Cute sounds and music. Congrats :raised_hands: 10/10

Very weird, in a good way! I love lööps!

Funny idea. I don´t know if i didn´t see it, but i kind of missed some element, which i could maddly klick to increase my lööps. All i could do is sit there and wait for the counter to go up

I didn't understand right away how it worked, but it's a relaxing nice game

Very funny game, loved the idea, so hilarious! As the game says: 22 minutes of time well spent xD

This game has cats, this game is gud

Really good game! You achieved you goal of humor. Would have liked to see the 'clicker' aspect of the cookie-clicker genre preserved, so there was something to do while waiting for more money. Well done.

Very funny little idle/ clicker! :D Realized pretty late I couldn't upgrade machines that are currently in use, so I thought the game was bugged or I missed something.

you may have some lööps, bröthers!

30 minutes, 3700 cats served and full upgrades. was fun, thanks!

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!! OMG I love this game!!!!! Congratulations on a stellar idea!

This is such a great idea and well executed. Cats and the internet is always a great combo. It's amazing how much time you will sink into this game. I am about 22 mins and going strong because I am really curious about the secrets. Lots of fun to be had here

LOOPS THE GAME? The art was amazing and I loved the concept. The music fit well and all together a great game.

I spent 20 minutes on it. Great job, everything is amazing: the idea, the art, the music and sfx, programming. May you get a 10/10

This game is perfect, I couldn't force myself to close the game until I maxed out all the upgrades and even then it was hard! :smile:


I did find one useless feature though - "Mews on/off", who would want to turn off the meows?! :scream_cat:

I got sucked in to this game for some reason. I think I just love this type of games. I did manage to find one secret but I'm not quite sure how I did it. Anyway, I really enjoyed it and played for at least half hour

I don't know why, but it was kind of relaxing to play :) nice game!

Great i always wondered how a cat fittnes gym would work

I played for 28min (3532). I love your game! <3 Normally I hate idle games - but this one is the best! I laughed when I saw the label "time well spent". Music is awesome and I could listen to it to the rest of my life. Meows are awesome and I love the graphics. Thanks for doing this :)

Haha funny game!

Nice take on tower defense mechanics. I wasn't sure what the top row of upgrades did. I might have to give it a second go to determine the best way to arrange the equipment.

What a funny and entertaining game! I personally love idle games, so this was a nice experience. I wasn't sure where to cat concept was going, but this is such a nice turn and a pleasant surprise to see in the game jam. Nice job!

This is hilarious, and so much fun to play. Excellent work!

Omg this is cute as hell, really nice to just play and let your brain relax

Time well spent! Love the animations and humor, the cats are very organized when it comes to distribution amongst the machines :) The sixth one borders on unhealthy torture though :))) Accidentally left this on for four more hours and got 35k cats in shape, beat me, I am still going.

I played this way longer than was approriate, but loved every moment :D

Awesome game. I had a lot of fun playing, and found the concept hilarious. It ran smoothly, everything worked perfectly, I liked the graphics a lot, and the music was nice and laid-back. I don't usually play idle games, but I really enjoyed this one. Also, although I kept both settings on, I appreciated the options to switch off the mews and the music :-)

Reminded me of cookie clicker! Fun little time passer, waited to see what the 6/6 machine was!

It took me about 28 min to make all 6/6 ... mooooood refreshed..man...nice game.....although dogs working under a cat was motivational.....

The game is great!!! It ends my last evaluation of the day =D
But to not be so generic "Thank you for making the game" I will suggest some improvements:

* Add more upgrades, and some challenges, like time limit, idk

My god, that was hilarious. A whole game made off a bloody meme.

I will say for the art direction that you should keep your angles all pointing in the same direction alot of the art was giving conflicting directions of where things are pointing.

Really cute and fun game! Time well spent indeed, 10/10 stuff

I literally spen 29 minutes playing this game, awesomely entertaining and fun take on the challenge. You could do something such as resetting gym for faster loop recollection when all the upgrades are purchased if you want to expand on the game.

Lol i spent more time then i cared for on this. Fun humor as well.

COuldnt for the love of me find those secrets though.

Please give my game a try as well ! https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/47/rewind-a-companion-cube-experiment

Addictive! Spent like 15mins without even noticing. Would be really awesome with multiple levels and perhaps clicking on the cats to "increase" their productivity? :laughing:

I am going to say you lot were one of the users who put in cats as a theme. Either way I approve. So much that I too am one of the many who vibed to the many cats achieving their loops. Awesome take on a clicker. Well done. Boop!

Cute? Funny? Idle game? Sign me up! I played this for a long time and unlocked all the stuff. Only didn't find the two secrets. I just love idle games in general so I didn't need a lot of motivation to keep on playing. Here are the only problems I have with the game:

- Doesn't keep running when you switch tabs, and this being an idle game it probably should. I don't know how you would do that in your engine though.
- The art is good but the cats don't look like they belong in the same art style as the other assets, even the cat receptionist is in a different style.
- There could be more sound effects aside from the cats meowing.

But this is just nitpicking at this point.


Sooooooooo, I think I am ready to give a proper review now XD

I am totally not an Idle game fan, but this one had something that broke that.
Besides the fun animations for every upgrade it also has some secrets.
Overall a really fun and addictive game you should be proud of!

One thing that I would like to see are more upgrades, maybe a final one where all the cats work out time go divide by 2 or something.
Maybe a little more interactions with the exercise themselfs, like maybe click on them and the exercise time goes -0.05 per click.

That was my time well spent indeed!

Left them a nice swimming pool

I found both secrets! Neither require you to play the game for very long, but I made it to an hour with 9,000 cats and almost 6,000 money before I found them both. Hint: look for hover text mouse-overs for another hint.

First game I played after finishing but forgot to leave a comment!
I showed my team mate a picture of the "Brother may I have some loops" cat while we were trying to come up with ideas so I'm really glad someone made a game based on that :smile:

Gameplay is great. Nice idea for theme.

It was a hilarious game! There was a problem I found though a lot of the time it didn't seem to work when trying to update I just had to keep spam clicking around the box to try to get it to upgrade seems like it was a small area that it allowed you to click to upgrade, was fun though!

I tried hard to find secrets, but they remained secrets to me...


Fun little idle game, perhaps I spent too much time on it - more than I should. :smile: For my taste it is on the longer side, but I still managed to upgrade everything. More cats :smile_cat:, more loops :loop:!

Music was great, perfectly fitting and not anoying.

Story was ok and funny!

I think this game deserves an ending after upgrading all the gym equipment, perhaps the cat receives lööps from its bröther? :thinking: We might never know!

I spent too long playing this game but it was just so well done! I played it more like an idle game, but I think there's potential to make it a more involved game!

The opening of this game was absolute perfection. I love these crazy cats. I spent way too much time playing this, it reminds me of some of my favorite games like A Dark Room. This is definitely the only game I played that used "Stuck in a Loop" like this. Great job :)

I forgot and left this on when I went to work...
Absolutely hilarious game!

The graphics for the game were decent. I especially appreciated the detailed graphics for the cat at the opening cutscene as well as the graphics for the variety of diverse cats in the gameplay. The music was furthermore pleasant to hear and made playing the game more comfortable. Unfortunately, I found the game to be quite boring. This is because the game lacks in player choice and challenge and the gameplay is too repetitive.

I didn't even think that someone would make a game based on this meme. Great job!

Nice game, enjoyed it a lot. Pretty literal interpretation of the theme. I think it would have been nice to see how much I earn per minute.

Cute little game. Spent to much time on it and found no secrets though :D
Nicely done.
Cheers.

unlocked everything I could, but didn't find any secrets :( Oh well, neat game.

I had a lovely time thanks

God, why are these cookie-clicker-like games like catnip to me???

Well, I hope you're happy, I upgraded everything fully, and I don't feel anything anymore :joy:

Cool game, plus cats, what's not to love? Definitely the most literal interpretation of the theme I've come across, and I ain't even mad.

Didn't discover any secrets tho :/

Good job! :cat:

Ha! Cat's must flow! Really nice idea and loved the cat humour all around :) I'm not too fond of those clicker-type games but this was a fun to an extent. I couldn't play until everything was upgraded because I felt like I was hopelessly wasting my time. Other than the satisfaction to have everything upgraded, there wasn't really all that much to engage the player. The secrets were a nice addition, though I didn't find any in my run. I clicked around, but didn't find anything. The wart was rough but cute nonetheless. Mechanical wise, everything worked as intended, I guess. I had no issues with anything.

all in all, a nice clicker/upgrade game that could use some steeper acceleration towards the mid game. I thought it was a little slow, but that's just my preference with such games. Still a good entry that fits the theme in a creative way :)

I'm biased because I love cats. Take all the stars! Seriously, I want to see a full cat sim/management/tycoon now :)

Cats! 😻 Bit slow to get going but very sweet, music fits well, cats are adorable, the amount of different things to unlock is quite impressive for a game jam, especially with all those animations to go with the different things! Nice work!

I don't know why, but I had fun! xD I find this game really charming! This cat tycoon could use some strategy elements, though ;) Thanks for a Linux build, btw!


Nice entry here! I love cats, I love every kind of cats, I just wanna hug all them, but I can't hugging every cat! Good job! :D

A lot of my time was well spent ! special mention for the cat running on the
course mat ! your style and animation is really fun :)

ps : also where can we find the name of the music ?

What a fun game hahaha! I was a little confused at first, but I think I was able to enjoy the experience in general. The graphics are good, and so is the sound. I liked the cats hahaha. Congratulations.

Ah yes, godot, good to see other godot users :) I had lots of fun with your game. It's.. purrfect. Nice music, cool mechanics, secrets and cats.

Cute cats, but the sound is distributing :(

Pretty neat. I got frustrated the cats kept walking past my high level machines. I thought I could level up quicker by putting the fast machines at the left/top, but the cats would walk past and go to slower machines. :frowning2:

I was hoping to beat the game to get some resolution to the original story, did the cat get his loops?!

I dont know why i enjoyed this. I don't know why i spent so much time playing this. Take your 5 stars

Really love this idea! The execution is so cute and funny. Couldn't find the secrets, but really enjoyed playing this and listening to the charming music, would love to replay it : D

Very funny and unique take on the theme. Really nice and addictive game! Good job!
