Some things I would try:\n- Leave the bar where it is when you turn away, rather than having the email regress when you're not holding the button.  As it is, the emails undo themselves when you're not looking.\n- Auto-select each new email as it comes in.\n- (I assume you wouldn't have had time to implement this anyway <3 ) Rank the emails by urgency, and allow the player to right-click on the less urgent ones to 'apologise' and buy more time.\n- Panning the cat sound to indicate where to look for him.\n\nThanks for making this!

Love the art style and looks very nicely put together. If you hadn't have said about less polish than you were used to, I would have honestly thought the start and intro pages were just part of the humour!  \n\nGameplay wasn't immediately obvious (although I assume instructions would have been included on the intro page if you had time). Like other people have said, it might be nice to have some kind of indicator leading up to \"naughty\" behaviour although I don't think having to look in multiple rooms is terrible since there's only a couple and adds to the stress!  \n\nLove the sound effects of the cat although I hope no cats were harmed in the making!  \n\nOverall, a cute fun game that was well put together in the time and I really enjoy your sense of humour.","format":"md","likes":0,"spam":"N"}],"format":"md","images":["ld50\/wayback-placeholder.png"],"links":[{"url":"https:\/\/profugobarbatus.itch.io\/help-my-cats-become-a-demon-lord","text":"Jam Contest Release"}],"metadata":{"g_key":"81357","g_author":"1148812","g_event":"LD50","g_eventkey":"110","g_subevent":"JAM","g_urlkey":"385706","g_title":"Help!
