Really cool, after I found the cat menu it made a little more sense. I could not figure out how to properly feed the cats.

You need to hold CTRL at the can opener and hungry cats will come to you to be fed, that probably could have been clearer in the help section.

I'm a big fan of puns, and I appreciate you and the work you put into the different cats.

I'm glad you like it. when the game starts it pools 4096 distinct cats each with a distinct semi-random name. It pulls randomly from this pool throughout gameplay.

I really like the concept. The only issue I found is that the controls felt a bit unresponsive at times, but outside of that it was fun and cute.

I love the concept ^^

Great graphics and story. I played on a Mac so didn't have the CTRL key so that was a bummer.

Meow! Buys cats *purr*iously

Love the old lady physics, that ol broad can really move once she gets going haha. Also cute cat sounds, I think my gf will like this game! Very cute game

I think there is bug here. Can't move after restart game.
Also I can't know if i feed cats properly (besides spending money, i guess), maybe some feeding animation or emotion of a well-fed cat could help.

This game is cute but I found it a bit strange to play. I couldn't figure out if the cats were eating and the sound that is triggered when you feed them is a bit grating. Cool concept though :)

Durveg5 Dec 2017, 20:14

I had the same idea as you, I decided to go in a different direction but when I was brainstorming a crazy cat lady game defiantly crossed my mind, fits the theme so well. Like others I had some trouble with the controls but it was fun none the less.

@dan-colman : Left CMD will also work here right away here, it should have to begin with, thanks for the bug note.

@rosik : so there is, I will patch that.

Everyone else : I wish I had more time to have the feeding mechanic be clearer, but I'm happy to hear some people are enjoying it. I had a lot of fun building it.

Wonderful game! Really nice.

Feedback / Suggestions

- The graphics aren't the best (graphics aren't consistent style, and some don't look as good)
- I suggest making the "click ctrl to do action" make you know if it is doing something because I couldn't tell sometimes if it actually was doing something

Overall, a cool game!

Charming game, the way the cats adorably hop around is a nice touch. My only real complaint is that the cat lady feels a little too slidey

notpresident356 Dec 2017, 02:49

Fun, but the graphics are not very good and I couldn't tell if it was feeding the cats at all.

CarlotaEsca6 Dec 2017, 17:21

Great job! I also had problems figuring out if the cats were eating or not. Maybe some feedback there could help! :) I adore how the cats move!

Fun concept, I liked when the letter came through the door.

That old lady has some crazy acceleration though, I think she needs to be a little less slippy.

It's got a lot of charm to it. Well done.

My sanity levels were dipping way faster than the old lady until I saw the mute button! It was setting my dogs off, haha! Nice idea but lacked a little polish, like with the feeding as others have pointed out. I loved the cats and all their names.
