In this game, you are a kitten. A kitten who has become lost and is all alone without its mommy-cat. Your goal is to find and return to Mommy.
There's a problem, though. You're tiny and weak... you can't move very far, or very fast.
Yet, there's a solution! These humans think you're SUPER CUTE, and then want to carry you home! If you meow [Space Bar], the ones that hear you will run to pick you up! Don't let them carry you off, though! You need to find Mommy! Let them carry you for a while, but if they don't seem to be going the right way, hop out of their arms [Space Bar] and look for another ride!
Good luck, kitten!

I did eventually find her - couldn't quit the game and leave the kitten alone D=
Tifu: Nope, nothing implemented to help find her - I'd originally intended to try to do something with sound for that as well, though I hadn't worked out exactly what.
I think the game's adorable and uses a clever mechanic on real-world adorableness (sometimes I pretended that I was the human carrying the kitty instead), but like the others, also feel that more guidance would have been nice--especially in a randomly generated world. How would you know if somebody's carrying you in the right direction? It ended up being a guessing game.
