The game doesn't start for me. :(
No output either, it just starts to load, and then stops.

Make sure you download and install the XNA redist first.

Wow, I really like your music and sounds. What did you use to create the music?

Worked fine for me. I liked the background music. I found the gameplay pretty hard, though - I rage-quit at the top of the second level...

If I had more time I would've playtested a bit more..
Next things on my list were boss music, an ending cutscene and difficulty modes, but I just didn't have the time :(

This is a really solid first entry. The art and the audio took me most by surprise, and the controls were responsive enough to forgive the annoyingly long hit boxes on the cats.
Nice work! First game I've rated and let me tell you it's off to a great start :)

Cant run due to the XNA dep, but looks like a solid platformer from your screenshots, you should put up a video for those of us who can't run it.

Yeah, XNA does not work for me at all. Unfortunate :(

That was the best options menu I've ever seen!

A fairly standard platformer, but also a good, fun one. I really liked the graphical style and audio. The music is catchy, if a little repetitive. And the story was so deep and emotional! Okay, maybe not, but it was funny.

WHY IS THIS ONLY #160???

You got #64 in humour, though. That's pretty cool.
