Fat Cat: Cosmo's Quest by MiggyGMan

[raw]
made by MiggyGMan for LD34 (JAM)
Fat Cat is about a confused cat named Cosmo and his quest to become a fat cat so he can live the good "Fat Cat" life. Will this lovable cat eat enough sushi to reach his dreams of reaching the "Fat Cat" status, did he choose the "Fat Cat" life or did it choose him? PLAY AND FIND OUT.

Instructions:
- Use Space Bar to eat sushi when it is on the red place-mat, but make sure it matches the sushi in the frame or Cosmo will be a sorry cat (lose a heart).
- Fill the progress bar with good Sushi fatness to progress to next level.
- You have three hearts and thus three allowed mistakes before Cosmo becomes a sick cat

Tools Used:
- Coding: Eclipse(Java), libGDX, Overlap2D
- Art: Paint.net, Photoshop CC
- Music: Finale Notepad, FL Studio, SFX

p.s. "Fat Cat" is a saying for a rich person

Really liked the music and the art, i think there should have been some sort of score screen at the end or something i felt like i got pretty far, but it still just said Game Over.

it's a fun game, could be better balanced so it doesn't suddenly changes right when you click it, but quite nice in general.

It was pretty fun, but there needs to be some indication that the food will change soon, and the music got a bit abrasive.

Fun for the most part, but got a bit repetitive. The music was pretty good and I appreciated the opening cut scene. Good job!

The music was pretty nice and it was cute! The pictures kept changing like a split second before I selected the item, which was a little bit annoying. Good job!

Cat games unite! This was fun. The music gets repetitive and the early levels can drag on as you wait for a match to happen. But the later levels are a fun challenge. Nice one!

Those cut scenes and voice actings are adorable. Good mechanics. (Beatable too)

That is one awesome game.. Had to play it till I completed it! :) The box art needs to be improved till it is as good as the game!!

Pro:
+ Cute story, art and music (though a little repetitive)
+ Challenging (mostly the last levels)
Con:
- The changing of picture felt a bit unfair, always changing right before getting eating the sushi

Nice entry!

Fun little game, it has a minor issue, sometimes you get the right sushi coming up and the required one changes before you can even react, otherwise its a good game overall, had some fun, and +1 for having some voice acting and the "barf" sound when you eat the wrong sushi was quite funny :D

Nice little game. The music and graphics were great, the VA was a bit rough. The mechanics sometimes felt unfair because of how randomly the edible choice changed. Nice work!

Intro was definitely amusing, audio is nice and fits well with the game. I wish the target sushi didn't change so frequently (or so suddenly without warning - perhaps something like having the image blink before switching out could have made it feel more fair?) as it seems to change often right when you eat one. Got very repetitive after a few tries. Overall quite fun, very enjoyable ^^
