Hey, first of all i found controls little hard (it feels slippery) but i do like how the it enters zoom mode when player enters the specific areas. (It's nice little detail i think). Good job.

@iozsaygi Thank you! A friend of mine commented that the movement mimics that of a go-kart. :)

So at first I was a little disappointed with the graphics, but then I stole something, and heard that fantastic "mreow" that happens on each pickup and knew I was in for a good run. I played through, got all the things, and was happily surprised with the final payoff of a suprisingly deep ending. Good stuff.

It's not very clear where exits are (it's footmarks and roads, right?), so I probably missed some content.

Too simple (content-wise, but difficulty-wise too). But cat is charismatic.

There isn't much gameplay, but the ending sequence was impressive! :P

@baturinsky Yeah, some of the portals are not marked clearly enough. You can walk through all the roads (until they go in a circle) and on the footsteps. Once you collect all 12 items something happens. Thanks for the feedback.

is it a cat on the ice? moving are slippery ... more seriously congratulations to you, the sounds are super cool and brings a mood ... I confess you had trouble understanding that the cat paw were the triggers for zone switch but once it's ok it's much easier ...

@tasakasama Indeed the cat slips everywhere, a friend of mine commented that it's like riding a go kart ;)

Thanks for the feedback!

Meow! Cool game. I was able to figure out where to go on my own (the hints with cat feet helped a lot). Cheers!

The audio was awesome, it can make the player excited easily and it matched with your game concept. The movement was slippery as many people are saying but it was okay for me. I enjoyed it. Nice concept and nice game.

Controls seem like riding a sled, it was fun just to move around, but the ending is great!

I like the sound of collecting things. Meow!

Wandering around the world was quite satisfying. I felt like driving a kitty-car XD
