Very cute, weird and funny!
At first, I didn't realize that there was a limit to how far I could stretch my body for a long time, and suspected that the kitty had fallen face-first to the ground and was stuck.
After realizing that I could extend my body with the green ball (like in the Snake game), I finally started the game and had a lot of fun playing it all the way through.
The ending art was nice, very special and happy art. This made Cat & Kate a memorable piece of art for me, thank you!
Thanks so much for playing our game!! I loved watching your play through!
It means so much seeing your video, reading your kind words, and being featured on your page!
=(^w^)=
This is so kind... Thank you so much for taking the time to play our game!! Our team really appreciates it, and we all loved watching your video. :)
(Also nooo! The poor frog hat! Hahaha)
Hi Everyone! I just wanted to post an update that a new version of the build has been uploaded. We did a pass on the table bug, and hopefully that resolved any issues. :)
As has been mentioned by other people before me, I couldn't get past the table in the kitchen. :(
For your dev/bugfix information I'm playing in fullscreen mode on a Dell XPS 15 with a 1920 x 1200 resolution screen, 8 GB dedicated NVIDIA GPU, Core i7 Intel CPU, and 32 GB of RAM. I hope you can get that bug fixed soon. I'd love to be able to play more of the game! I love the aesthetic and the sound design.
P.S., please boop all the animals for me. Thank you.
Ah!! I am so sorry about the table bug. :( We are still working on fixing it, and plan to upload a new version.
Also thank you for sending the dev/bugfix info! I'll pass that information over to them. :)
No worries! Our game has a number of bugs as well. We ran out of time and didn't even have time to implement a quit button, so you have to ALT + F4 out of MANFROG. I totally get it haha beautiful game though. Very cozy. Makes me want to curl up next time a fireplace with a book and some nice lo-fi music on a rainy day.
Haha I totally feel that! Also, I loved the art and aesthetic in your game! Very spooky and fun game. :)
And thank you so much again! :)
Really neat game! I got into the kitchen, couldn't quite get up the stairs, then fell behind the toilet looking around. Super cool!
Thanks for playing! There is quite a bit of skill involved isn't there? :D
Thank you so much!!
This is an absolutely delightful game! You guys really nailed that quirky 2000's Nintendo vibe, this feels like it fits right in with like pikmin and wii sports. I really felt how much you all love your cats and their chaos. The controls were a bit tricky at first, but once I got the hang of things it was so much fun figuring out the world! It might be nice to have some more UI for the amount of cat you have left, or the direction your cat will start moving in too.
Thanks for playing! Agreed, those things would help take it up a notch. :)
That is so kind, thank you so much! :)
Also great point about the UI! We will keep that in mind for the next jam. :)
Super cute and cool movement concept! I got stuck on the table in the beginning tho :O
Thanks for playing!
Bummer about the glitch! We noticed if playing in fullscreen or on a 4k monitor it would cause similar issues. Let us know if you try again and find success!
Thank you so much!!
Also, ah! Sorry about the table bug. We are looking into fixing that one. :)
