Once upon a time there was a little kitty called Chouhiro-nyan.
She lived in the Green Forest, eating mushrooms and apples, keeping the forest out of troubles.
One day, evil spirits have appeared in the woods to make the forest their haunt.
As the guardian of the Green Forest, Chouhiro-nyan bears a duty to banish these filthy spirits out of her home!
Chouhiro-nyan seeks for amber stones to transform herself in a magical girl for a short time and obtain superpowers.
She has ability to cast lightning charges while in catgirl form to expel your foes.
Beware! Spirits bite. Keep an eye on your HP level and use food to refill your health.
Save the Green Forest from doom!

Controls: arrow keys - move
Space - transform in a magical girl and fire lightnings

Nothing too special about gameplay, but the graphics was amasing!

Nice concept, I just wish the magical girl form either ran faster or fired more rapidly.

Nice, but I think the "cat girl" form is way too slow. That could have been interesting though, but you cannot transform back, so you are just stuck. The ray is also too slow to fire, getting you hit during casting, which is a bit frustrating.

Quite a cute game. Loving the graphics and music. Didn't quite get what I was supposed to do. It was fun to run around with the little kitty sprite. Didn't quite use the other shape.

The game is really pretty, but falls rather short on gameplay - the catgirl form is much slower than cat and can't reliably keep the spirits away, especially with seemingly long recharge and attacking only the spirits she's facing (and there's no way to turn back to agile cat shape manually, either). After a few tries I managed to complete a level once, but then I failed again and don't really feel like trying anymore. ^^'
From minor qualms, the music (at least in menu) has audible loops, and the font was a bit hard to read.
Keep improving!

I really liked the art. Music are good too. You could increase the girl movement a bit. Congrats

Nice little game.
(Found the debug 'show colliders' key when spamming WASD :D)

Very nice graphics and audio, the atmosphere was lovely. Sadly for me, the game was immensely laggy, it was quite charming nonetheless.

Nekomimi is justice!!!
The last stage is a little difficult. Sprites seem to no limit, so the game becomes lag when stage start about destroy first portal, this is also making the difficulty from easy to lunatic, lag + large number of sprites, it's really hell.
But...Nekomimi moemoe :PPPP

Hi, nice game ! We're realizing a video with several games of the Ludum Dare #35.
Can you add your game on indiexpo.net ? (it's free)
So we can include also your game in the video ;)
p.s. write #LDJAM in the game's description

Cute graphics and nice sound.

Something I missed was the ability to transform back to a cat, missed to run away from the spirits ;)
