About:
Second Ludum Dare entry ever. Kinda lost interest in the idea halfway through the compo. I still finished it, but the game ends kinda abruptly.

Tools:
The game was created in C# / XNA. I really should learn Unity or something to save time in the future.
Programmer Art is made with GIMP. Sounds made with the Bfxr.

Original Compo Version is the XNA Version. Compiled to HTML5/JavaScript using JSIL after the deadline.
Only Changes made in the HTML5/JavaScript Version were to fix JSIL compile bugs.

Played about 10 games and this is the best one. Good idea, has a story, its fun, level design is good, has cat upgrades. One impressive thing is the "bond" between the two characters is solidified because when you're together you can kill the dudes, but when apart you're powerless. Thats deep. Nice job!

I liked it. Really got interesting when the kitty came into play. Like the decision to vary the jump sounds as well... quick and easy call. (You can also tweak the pitch, as a quick and dirty... makes a big difference)

Good job! Thanks.

I got stuck at the second vertical door.

Nice double controls with the cat! Then is when the game gets quite interesting, I liked that mechanic. Graphics, jumping and sounds need some polish, but the game stays fun, and that's the key. Good work.

I had a similar idea with my cat launcher :P Try my game for this ludum dare and you'll see!

What can I say, basic platforming. Nothing wrong with that, mechnically pretty good and there was some solid gameplay on display.

Good job!

The idea is awesome actually, the gameplay is minimalist but fun. The setting is quite unusual and the weapon is very much so. I really am impressed with this entry, so far one of the best entries in this Ludum Dare so far.

Super cool gameplay, moving the two players at once.
A little bit polish on the sprites would be great, but i had a good time.
Question : What happen to the poor cat after i found the tiger ? ç_ç

Really solid game! Things get a lot more interesting once you get the cat and human working separately. Could use background music and animations, but nice stuff!
