Cute and heartwarming. The music fits well, I kind of like it. I wish there was more I could do with the adorable cat.

Pretty much everything about this game is perfect. The only thing that would make it better would be the ability to select from a couple different cats, especially a black cat. Otherwise, pat yourself on the back because I love this.

That was a very pleasant experience. Loved the music!

I enjoyed this. It's a nice calm down from other games, and I loved the way the music always sounded like a meow.

There are a couple points where you can get stuck, e.g. the road and houses. But most of the game works fine.

Hahhaha
This is so silly! I loved it!
I NEED to know who made the music. It's a amazing track.
It was a peaceful experience. I really enjoyed.

I ran into some bugs, like falling of the map e and "hover jumping" (which was very funny ahah).

The concept is very cool. I like the idea of having no specific objective, just exploration.

However, the camera is terrible. Your game would be soooo much better with a camera behind the shoulders of the cat. This would allow you to explore the world in a much more intuitive way, and would increase the experience of being a cat.

What a beautiful game! You really captured the essence of being a cat (And I can tell you that, i'm a cat lol)

The world is very charming. The rainbows that appear after you get petted makes me laugh every time, and the different text that appears adds some variety.

About five minutes of wandering through the bare paved streets, but there was no one to purr with, sadly..
Lovely music, by the way!

Love this game! I really like how he moves and his little shadow! Nice humorous comments when he gets attention and love! Nice relaxed pace which is a lovely change :-) Very nice game!

Cannot resist game with kitty, must play! This game is so cute! Cat is modeled and animated really well, other assets aren’t at same level, but given the time limit, great job. Sounds are cleverly done really add to the overall catness. Only lacking part is the gameplay: not much to do here. Even with just simple timer or something like that this could have become more game like. Still overall an endearing experience!

I was... totally caught off guard by just how happy I made these people by giving affection. Had a proper giggle at that. The puns, the little hearts, it's just wonderful.

The major thing stopping me from playing longer is the camera really, it's just a bit too jarring. Also I think a little.. catdar of some description would be nice, to help me look for people who need cheering up since the. Just me thinking uh... typing aloud though.

Everyone moves and looks great, especially the cat. And the music is super fitting and charming. Lovely work! :D

I'm a dog person, so 1/5, better luck next time.
JK of course (though I do prefer dogs), it was a really great game! I love the graphics and the whole toon shading style, it worked really well I think. Plus the animations of the cat were really great and knowing how hard animating is, I really appreciate this. I also didn't quite enjoy the fixed camera, it was nice that the buildings were transparent to see the cat, but I'd prefer more control over it. Other than that, I think the game is really good, the music was also really fitting and fun! You did a fant-cat-stic job! I'm not good at cat-related puns.

Really cute game, I'm definitely a cat person. As for game play, I think it needs some more "stuff" to do, I don't necessarily know what, maybe some challenges? Also I think you should have a look at the controls/movement maybe make it a little smoother rather than a snap direction change. But overall, it really is a nice presentation, well done.

I was alone in this small world =(
Also, somehow, I managed to cross the road, but when I tried to cross back, I was flying!
Loved that you took proper care to give it an Icon and splash graphics!

I Played this on Livestream today: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3YtyZ8Rudok

I had more fun with this than I really understood, I sent it to a cat-loving friend of mine and I haven't heard from her since so I assume she's engrossed. I think my only gripe was the camera, but otherwise a very well made, very cute experience.

Very adorable. Walking about was good fun and looking for people to cat was satisfying. The cat model is really lovely, the overall art is constistent, lovely and all works together.

Some points to work on, the camera snaps a little too quickly. I think it would benefit with a bit more Lerp from point to point. I liked the fact I could jump, but there wasn't much to jump on! A few bins and some cardboard boxes for me to jump around on, scaling over a fence perhaps, would make the experience feel more cat-like.

Over all though really well done!
