LudumData

Nepeta Cataria by TeamOliphants

[raw]
made by TeamOliphants for LD34 (JAM)
A game by Lindsey Bieda and Jackie Kircher focusing on the Ludum Dare theme of two button control where you hit right to allow cats into the club that match the requirements on the VIC (Very Important Cats) list and left to dismiss those who aren't quite there.

The windows version will probably work fine in WINE if you want to run on Linux.


Additional vocals provided by Lindsey's cat Dash.

great animation/drawings! It seemed like my paw always comes up obscuring the next cat i want to look at. also the whole game seems to be played in the bottom left of the screen. you could think about repositioning those elements.

Okay to start with I thought this was really pointless but after about 5 minutes when I worked out what the clipboard meant I thought it was awesome :D Loved the sound design loved the art and spent about an hour on this XD

Really cute, like the idea of some cartoon cat raves haha. It could have done with a bit the difficulty ramping up quicker, or some extra little mechanic to keep people on their toes. Well done with the two button theme, nailed it!

Awesome job, got 1125. Really enjoyed this one, and the added touch of authentic cat sounds was perfect!

The games about cats, they are always interesting. And this is about cats and ramdom. This is really good.

Not bad, a little difficult to figure out which ones I should let in and shouldn't. Fit the theme well and looks good good.

Surprisingly enjoyed this one! Its a bit difficult to understand the symbols on the clipboard sometimes, but the art was cute, the music was fitting, and it was a nice challenge.

Fun, but tell people what your controls are! I tried pressing like every button on the keyboard, and I clicked all over the screen, and I skimmed the text up here (looks like I missed it... but it should be in big letters, or it should be in the game)

This was way harder than I thought it would be @_@ I loved the strobelights that came on occasionally!
