Hi! Your game looks cute but you haven't added any downloads or links, so I can't play it!

@zarkonnen Hi! The link will be there in a couple of hours. I accidently published the page a little early.
Thanks for your interest!

Hey there, just as a heads up, your download is getting flagged by my antivirus. Let me know if you resolve that, looks like an interesting entry!

@binary-coder Hi! When downloading, the antivirus may swear, but there is no virus - this, unfortunately, is a false positive result. We have added this information to the description, thanks!

I tried to find information about issues like this and found that YoYo Games recommended send exe-file to antiviruses vendors, but it can take a lot of time(.

Thanks, I figured as such, but just wanted to give y'all a heads up just in case!

very atmospheric, the colors are very contrasting, very nice game)

Thank you! We were inspired by the style of the 80s.

I think you miss theme of the jam. "Unstable" means you need to use Unity instead of GameMaker :o))
Cats saves the world! I like simplicity of this conception. With exeption to green bugs that appears from nowhere.

I immediately thought of the classic Alley Cat, but this much more and an interesting modern twist. Love the connection lost/glitching cat idea (Assassins' Creed desync?). The game does get really tough really quickly. The graphics are great, if anything more animation frames on the cat would be nice so it's easier to see what movement phase it's in. Good fun experience overall!

Nice looking game, good mood, but controls feel a little wanky and you probably should add a disclaimer about strobing graphics

Hello !

Lovely entry. The idle animation is just PURRFECT !
I liked the music.

Good job!

Hi! I'm not really good at platformers and if you add the glitch component... it was a pain! xD But I enjoyed it.
Sometimes it's hard to connect to the line, even if you're not "glitching"

I love the art, the idea of the glitching cats, the connecting of the plugs.
The stuttering effect when the player gets low health is a cool idea but the intensity of it makes it really unplayable once your health gets super low.
All in all great game and would love to see it further developed.

Well this fells really unstable in match-the-theme way.)

Though maybe breaking the controls in the end of HP and taking "last moment success" feel from the player is not a very good idea - even on this jam.

> I think you miss theme of the jam. “Unstable” means you need to use Unity instead of GameMaker @yaroslav-kravtsov

It could be good idea to make the game about making games in the unstable game engine with many exceptions appeared after compile and start the game... inside the game.))

> @vidim888 Nice looking game, good mood, but controls feel a little wanky and you probably should add a disclaimer about strobing graphics.

Controls are simple and fully understandable In fact I had some problems with level design because the cat frequently bangs his head to platforms.

I was making it as fast as could and exactly I didn't think to add any disclaimers).
May be next time.

> @mausimus Love the connection lost/glitching cat idea (Assassins’ Creed desync?).

I didn't think about it in this case but it really the same idea!)
Thank you!

> @mspawa Hi! I’m not really good at platformers and if you add the glitch component… it was a pain! xD But I enjoyed it. Sometimes it’s hard to connect to the line, even if you’re not “glitching”.

Thank you!
It's the main idea of the game. You become unstable in the glitching state.

Thank you! I think at least we will add new levels and some different mechanics in levels design. I hope I will have time to release the game in the future.

Thank you for your opinion!
In this case I tried to beat the theme of crisis in the last minutes before you lost connection in any the same situations. Let it be a main context of this game. Why not?

Probably found a bug. My cat lost contact after opening the portal on the first level. And the portal won't open next time.
Using the spacebar to jump into a platformer is more comfortable, in my opinion.

> @ancooper Probably found a bug. My cat lost contact after opening the portal on the first level. And the portal won’t open next time. Using the spacebar to jump into a platformer is more comfortable, in my opinion.

Thank you!
I will try to fix it soon. And I can add spacebar key for jump. Good idea.

Love the music and the goofy looking cat!
The platforms were a bit hard to see, I'd add some contrast there to make the world more readable.
Otherwise, everything looks great!

@rashcan We’ll try to fix the platforms. Thank you for your feedback!

Love the graphics, the cat is really cute, gameplay is a bit rigid to me, and sounds can become a bit anoying :/

Cool music and great art. I get that it's intentional for the cat to be slowed down when you're at low health, but maybe it could have gone between faster than normal to slower than normal, rather than only being slower than normal? It makes recovering from mistakes very difficult, which just doesn't feel good while playing.

Thank you anyway!

Thank you! Than you energy is low the cat has more probability turn to the glitch mode. In this mode the cat suddenly can move in random direction that makes too difficult to control it.

Loved the feeling when you are low health! Its pretty unstable :p Good entry!!

I like the art style, reminds me of Night in the Woods. I found the way the cat jumped about when you're low on health made it quite difficult though.

Lovely art! The game was really difficult, but fun nonetheless

Thanks for playing! 🤝

Cuty cat)))


Nice game! I like the art, and the glitching effects with particle zeroes are very cool. The glitching movement was fun too. The gameplay could use some polishing - taking and putting the plug needs to be super precise, at first I thought I was doing something wrong, but I was just a bit off and the plug went to the beginning a few times. Eventually I ended up playing with two hands, one on the E key, a bit awkward, but it worked. Afte I mastered taking and plugging the plug, the game was still very challenging. You could make a hitbox for the plug bigger, but instead I would actually suggest getting rid of the E key altogether - taking and plugging could be done automatically, as the player never needs to drop the plug inbetween the beginning and the goal. The portal not respawning after fail was game-breaking, but I've seen in the comments that you're aware of that. I like the music, it fits the game. And the idea for the game itself is fun, good job :)

The game look gorgeous, as always. Movement is fine, but in my opinion cat jumps too high. Talking of levels, in my opinion they are a little bit too hard, because it's hard to understand where is the target plug. Also it's was out of the blue, when the second wire were introduce. Anyway, a very strog submission, well done.

> @suchista

Thank you! I fixed any issues in the after-LD-version and decreased the difficulty level a little bit.

> @tricky-fat-cat

Thank you! About movement I wanted to realise the jumpy cat and specially added high jumps.

@katamary then, double jumps, in my opinion would have been better.

> @tricky-fat-cat

Okay. I will think about it.

Hey! Cool and cute game! The movement and the level design are on point with the theme! The instability / difficulty balance is really good, and man I love the glitching effect on the cat.

I love the visuals! the little ones and zeroes that splash around every time the cat jumps is a great idea, such a satisfying detail :D the gameplay was fun even though it got surprisingly difficult really fast. I do enjoy challenging games though :)

all in all a very creative entry!!

> @noethelazydev

> @armias

Thanks for playing!

Hey! Very cool game! Nice graphics and music. Good idea with being unstable when you're running out of energy. Controls could be a bit better though. Great work!

Man I love the art, the concept and what you were able to do with it. I feel like this is THE jam winner.

> @arthurgps2

> @filgru

Many thanks!

Wow, awesome graphics and audio! Love the style and polish! The concept is great but unfortunately the gameplay is a bit lacking.

As mentioned in earlier comments, the random glitching as your energy drops is not a very fun mechanic. It makes recovery from a low-energy situation very hard and frustrating. I figured the best way to deal with it was to just suicide and try again whenever my energy went to below 50%.

Also having to manually connect the plugs with the 'e' key was a bit awkward. I managed to miss the plug by a hair multiple times. So, instead of connecting it my cat just released the plug and I had to fetch it again. It would be more forgiving if you didn't have to plug it in using the 'e' key, or at least have it so that you don't drop the plug if you press 'e' in the wrong spot.

I did manage to beat the game, though, and overall it was a really impressive entry.

I love the idea, and i love how chllanging this game is) Great job, it was realy fun to play)
P.S. A lot of respect to the person who made the music, it was so atmosferic, cool and driving:D

Cool concept and nice graphics! Level design could use some work, the cat doesn't fit the levels very much. I also hoped that the power line would act like a grappling hook and expand your movement while you carry it.
Music is nice but the loop is very short so it becomes intrusive pretty fast

The binari particles were a cool touch!

Great mood and well-defined goals! :star:

I like that you get unstable over time and that you reused it to add more difficulty in the next level. :thumbsup:

I think the unstable..ness could be reduced if you are getting closer to a connect because that would make me want to push more for the connection even though the unstable bar is low :)

Loved the chill music and the color palette.

Nice work!!

Really enjoyed this game! I thought it could've fit the theme a bit more, but the graphics looked awesome and the gameplay was fun!

Nice work :)

It is really interesting how the little green bit blobs are good and bad at the same time!
I like the art of the cat and the artistic design of the game, also love the glitch effect.
It's funny looking how on the last level the cat runs around franticly dragging the floppy cables to the plugs at light speed.

Addicting visuals, the cat is so charming and cute, of course :3 Controls could be a bit better, but I enjoyed it.

i loved the cat! nice game!

Cool game turned out! I liked the cat and its animation, it looks simple, but at the same time very funny.
I liked how the theme of jam was revealed in this game

Very interesting and original concept.:)Nice job
