Small idea for a little game. *Egyptian mau

I've managed to end up with something playable, but still just the basic game core loop.

No time left for polishing, no focus on audio and music. The optimistic aim, that has been dropped in action, included some graphically worked welcome and final screens - the Bastet narrator, it is truly missing there.

This was very short, but actually really fun :) I thought it was really neat how you sometimes flipped the progress bar to confuse the player. It definitely worked XD

It feels that you wanted to a lot more with this game, but what you have now already works really well and looks beautiful! Really great job on the art :D

I loved this game!. Nice and different idea and it totally catches the cat sprit throwing things down somewhere.

Love the artstyle, and the humor was spot on too! I just wish it was longer!

Absolutely beautiful art style and concept. The game was fun, although more levels and complexity would be cool. Very nice work.

I liked the concept! I wasn't sure exactly what to do, but slowly figured it out. It was a fun little game. Wish I could see some more!

Loved the simple, angular art-style. It was simple but sweet!

oh god really difficult after experience continuous failure. How can I precisely click when it come to the far right? But it is fun.

@sophie-s Sorry to read, but there is nothing difficult at all - maybe I've just not communicated the way of controls clear enough, but believe me, it is on purpose and supposed to be a part of the game to find out. The point is not to click, but to click and hold - and release precisely (actually not even much precision needed). Thanks for playing, hope you try again :)

Love the minimalistic art and funny gameplay concept! Wish there was more of a challenge but definitely a starting-off point. Solid entry :)

I dont think I understood the mechanics... I never managed to get the vase off the shelf? Anyway, very nice and simple art and very cute concept! Cool sound effects too, feels very clean even if you had bigger plans.

Funny idea mixing the egyptian stuff with the mischeivousness of cats. Would be cool to see this developed more!

I was very surprised with this game! Yes, this is very minimalistic and the actual mechanic of breaking the vase is very simple, comparing to what I expected initially. But the graphics and animations are so cute and really create this lively feeling. This game gives a very nice impression.
