Tom-Catch is a classic shooter-action game. It tells the story of a conflict between cats and mice. You play as Felician Squeakypants, who has to take the blueprints of "an unconventional weapon" that can be used against the cats. Have fun!
It's soo retro. ;)
HOW TO PLAY -------------
Use W, A, S, D keys on keyboard to move. Or use Left Analog Stick on XBox Controller to move.
Use Mouse click/Left Ctrl to shoot. Or Right Trigger/Button A on XBox Controller to shoot.
With E key you can interact with the taxi. Use Button X on XBox Controller to interact with the taxi.
OBJECTIVES ------------ Shoot the cats or they will.. :) Chase the "Unconventional Weapon: Robot Dog" blueprints to win the game.
NOTES REGARDING THE THEME -------------------------- Our take on the theme was to build the story around the concept of an unconventional weapon. This weapon is a giant robot dog that can finally terminate the war between the cats and mice. Obviously you can't make a really big story in 3 days, so don't expect too much of Tom-Catch. :) It's a shame because I really like story driven games.
I ended up playing longer than expected, just wandering the streets, wondering what would come up next. But in the end I was defeated, just too much feline resistance!
Really great graphics, controls are very good too, It not fit the theme in my opinion. Scenery is big, maybe can be better put more enemies to fill it. Overall nice work!
Yeah, now linux link is working now, thanks :) Quite a nice game, it's a shame that there were no medpack somewhere in the labyrinth of the streets, was wandering around a lot longer that planned but died finally. I found one car that I was able to bounce like a ball ^^ Nice small game :)
Hahah, funny idea and graphics. To improve gameplay even more I'll suggest to add more enemies on the street and a GUI counter for enemies you have defeated :D
@scorched Because there are unfortunate bugs. Sorry for them. We didn't change or fix anything after the game had been submitted. There are other bugs with the loading mechanism also, but the game can be finished. Those aren't crucial problems, so we leave everything as it is. :)
Decent game with nice graphics. Shame there is no music, it would add to the experience. I like story, it's not too innovative but helps with immersion. From gameplay standpoint game is solid but could use some variety.
The graphics was definitely cool, but without music, it feels like it's missing a vital atmospheric element! Thought the game was really easy and generous, with enemies being ridiculously large for the puny bullets that they shot. Would have been cool to be able to shoot in 8 directions. I also think more time could have been spent adding special effects.

I couldn't stop giggling at the squeaky door sound the mouse/rat made when it got shot, though :D
The levels were a little too spread out, lots of walking around looking for things.
