Cat Outta Hell

Escape hell with your nine lives, or bargain with them to increase your chances of escape!

Controls (keyboard / gamepad)
- Jump - Space / A
- Dash - X / X (if purchased)
- Claw - Z / B (if purchased)
POST-JAM NOTE: Uploaded a new version that changes the keys to a different layout, because the original layout was causing problems on Mac computers (Gamepad was unaffected). Rest of the game is unchanged.

SOLID SUBMISSION!
KEEP WORKING ON IT!
Good job \o/
Couple tweaks I would make:
* Lower the bg music a bit and maybe add some variation
* Tighten up the cat's hitbox for platforming, sometimes I was falling and I didn't understand why
* I couldn't make it through the first level, it just got to hard at one point and felt impossible (three slide-y things moving in different directions with limited vision meant I just died there every time)
I really liked the power ups. It might be cool to introduce them in the levels for moments like that spot I was stuck on -- otherwise it means you have to choose your power ups just to overcome specific obstacles, rather than having a more dynamic choice of which one you want to carry.
I did also get into a little flow-state trying to speed run while playing with a game pad. When the platforming worked, it felt really good.
Great job overall!
Nice work!
