Wanted to purr early after seeing human fill food bowl. Cutest headbutts ever seen in a game. Very motivating image of kitty gentle headbutts going "Go~! Do the thing!"

Happy Kitty.

wirklich sehr kurzes Game, ziemlich süß - nicht sehr schwer und wer Katzen liebt und depressionen hat, könnte das vielleicht sogar mögen und sich damit identifizieren. Ansonsten kann man nicht wirklich viel machen. Es ist eine sehr kurze süße non-verbale Geschichte und versüßt einem etwas den Tag. Visuell recht hübsch, aber insgesamt für mich jetzt nichts krass besonderes.

So cute. Wonderful cat experience. I love this so much.

(+4)

Beautiful game. I could see this being expanded upon as an idea! The gameplay brought tears to my eyes and reminded me of my cat Henry who carried me through high school depression; he passed away my senior year of college at almost 19 years old, but even in his old age he loved headbutting me and trying his best to purr like this as an old mainecoon. :')

I beat the game then read the rest of the description

And I saw something about pressing right click

so I tried holding right click

And I was not disappointed

It was quite goofy

(+3)

made me cry

(+1)

谢谢你的可爱游戏,它帮助治愈了我困扰的心境。我很感激你。

(+5)

Best game in the jam in my opinion.  A lot of them are "What if you were bad instead of good?" but this one is having the player be good in a very different way.  Good job!

(+2)

10/10. This game is the best one yet! Please make more updates for different modes and stuff. Thank you for bringing hippieness to me!

(+1)

Congrats on making top 20 in the GMTK Jam! I wanted to reach out to ask if anyone on the dev team would be interested in participating in an interview about your experience during the jam? Interviews are conducted over Discord and presented live on Twitch.

It's so beautiful, I'd like a postjam version please.

No one should be depressed. Thanks for reminding us that every day is a miracle and that we can count on our best friends, being other people or animals, it's the same.
