In this game, you control a hungry black cat who loves fish. Your goal is to catch and eat as many fish as possible. Each time you eat a fish, your score increases and your cat’s tail grows longer!

\nI actually like the idea for this one, but I think the theme could be followed more. I could see this being pushed and being one of the top entries (add enemies, obstacles, fish types, better contrast, improve the cat graphics…)

\nI ate 88 fish, and then no more appeared. I assumed that was just a built-in limit, but then couldn’t see it in the source. Hmmm! What could have happened there?

\nI really like the cats tail getting longer, great touch.
\nThe game could be improved lots :)

\nThe cat and fish were well neat, but the cat was very hard to see as it was almost the same colour as the background, thank goodness for the cats eyes.
\nDespite the score getting quite high and the tail long, it wasn’t an issue if I went over my tail in the same way that in “snake” you’d die.
\nI played for a while and I couldn’t see that there was a particular goal or end to the game.

\nI don’t see the point of providing an automatic mode, as that takes away the only thing to do in the game. Was this a debug feature? There’s no real goal in the game, no threat of losing, and no progression other than a growing tail. But I feel like you’d need to be a bit more creative than making yet another snake game :)

\nThere doesn’t seem to be any way to win or lose either and it gets very repetitive. Also, the cat moves way too slow so when I have to get the fish from the other end of the screen, it takes very long to reach it.
\nIt could’ve included more things to eat, a timer, lose condition when you collide with your tail, a speedup as time goes on or more visual effects.
\nThe works well though and even includes a bit of audio, so props for that!

\nGreat work on your submission! I’ve always loved snake and really liked the take on this and the auto-hunt feature. I imagine that also made it easier to test for you as well? Always good when a dev mechanic becomes a game mechanic.
\nFor feedback, I’d suggest adding more gameplay indicators. The controls are good and audio is decent.
\nI recorded a video review for all the games here so that you can see my initial reaction while playing, which is often quite helpful from a user experience perspective. https://www.youtube.com/live/jl6pC4OnVJA?si=hadQmN9JZB93hDUM
