+ Awesome menu screen
+ Premise
+ Magical cutscenes
+ Cute cats

I did not manage to complete any objectives (where is the engine?), but Mr Kitty Jr has won my heart.

Tested on Manjaro, it works. It took me some tries to figure out what to do, but it’s the game only challenge. I managed to land and save everyone.

Incredibly nostalgic style, I loved that! Felt a bit frustrated at times for not knowing what to do, but then figured it out and landed the ship. That said, I don't think it's something bad that it's somewhat unintuitive; I actually think that it only complements the aesthetics of the game. Great game!

The cutscenes were amazing. The gameplay itself was really hard, I had to download the source code to understand what to do, I feel like having a bit of instant feedback or having the items be more snappy could make it way easier to understand.

Love the cutscenes, I'm not sure if there is any way to actually win, I was able to cool and repair the engines, but was blown up anyway. If that was intended, great!

This is wonderfully detailed for having been created in such a short time. The only thing I can think to recommend is to maybe have some sort of on-screen prompt with the controls. I kept trying to use LMB to interact with everything before I came back to read the game description.

Cutscene made me super happy, but I could not figure it out, the swap 1,2 or 2,3 had me ultra confused.

The cutscenes and characters are awesome, nice work on those! I can't imagine how long that kind of thing takes having never made a cutscene, let alone a 3D game. While the captain melting is a laugh, it interrupting the gameplay is not my favorite. If it played in the corner of the screen while the player continues to try and save the ship, that would be super cool. I thought I had it figured out by swapping the to-do around for the cat mechanic, but each way I tried to arrange things still ended in death. Still, cool experience and definitely funny! Good job.

Everything about this was my jam. Loved the cut scenes (especially the opening), the bright graphics, the droning audio, how open everything felt.

Enjoyed playing around until I figured it out. The solution made sense, but I needed to poke around a bunch to get there.

Great game :D

I loved the cutscenes and the characters, ThaProfesional had to help me finish the game though, although I was proud I worked out the fridge on my own. Followed, looking forward to more amazing games!

The Linux download here is missing the data file. The one on itch works though.
I love the ship. The cutscenes and all the interactables were great.
It was very unclear what to do though.

Took me long enough to figure out what I *could* do, let alone what to do. Got there in the end though. I love that the helmschicken gets more and more frantic as time goes on!

The cutscenes and the characters were super cool. I didn't figure out what to do to save the ship though :(

Well... If you do it alone and as part of a compo, then it’s fine, but it’s still better to improve the work itself with the visual part, because it’s very little painful to play this).
