You’ve always suspected it: cats aren’t here to cuddle, they’re here to conquer.\nNow it’s your turn to embrace the chaos!

\n

As the fluffiest agent of destruction, your goal is simple: wreck everything in sight before your human returns. Vases? Smash them. Glasses? Tip them over. That priceless shiny trinket they adore? Send it flying — the shinier the loot, the bigger your score.

\n

But beware of the cactus. Yes, it looks harmless, but one wrong swipe and you’ll learn the spiky truth of regret.

\n

Time is ticking, so claw, pounce, and rampage your way to victory.

\n

Play at home, on the go, or right on top of your human’s laptop (they’ll love that). Works on desktop and mobile!

Haha, I love this! Great theme match, nice graphics and a fun goal.

\n

It took me a while to figure out the controls on mobile. Or maybe there was even a bug the first time I opened it 🤔

\n

Difficulty seemed high. Is it even possible to clear the board? Could have been nice to start with a small board and then increase each time you play. Giving a bigger sense of progress.

\n

Still, I enjoyed this very much 😸

Good concept, cute visuals, nice gameplay, only missing a bit of sound.

Really smart use of emojis while still keeping the look and feel nicely consistent.

\n

I found the mobile controls pretty easy to use. A bigger font for score, time and HP would be helpful. A few SFX would also enhance an already fun little game!

\n

BTW, looking at your source code - a single file, no uglifyjs, no zipping - lovely!

Fun jumping around between the shelves looking for stuff to bash

\n

It was good to have the highlight halo around objects to know that action button had changed from jump to swipe

\n

I found 15 seconds a bit short before my owner got home, perhaps it would be good to have somewhere to hide then continue on with the destruction

\n

What was the bar to the side of the cat for, health? It didn’t change for me despite hitting cactus

Simple, fun game! Nice use of emojis, Well done

Nice little game. Seems like the game needs a bit more complete gameplay loop. Maybe extend the time some?

Nice game with a good scrolling and clever use of emojis. Some audio would have make the game event better. Great job!

It is good to see the theme of black cat being taken seriously. This is exactly whagt my cats would do!

\n

The game idea was unique and strangely cathartic to go around and destroy as much as you can in a short time span. Who knew destroying could be so fun!

\n

It would be more satisfying however if there were some sound effects to go with that destruction. Hopefully that will be an easy add for you if you choose to do it.

\n

Well done!

Thank you Ania, I added some sound effects in the post-jam version :)

I really think this is such a fun idea! I find it chaotic, in a good way, that the jump is also what throws the items! I do wish I could somehow delay the owner, but do enjoy playing.

Thank you for giving it a go… wish I could have added some more gameplay twists :)

This was a fun game. Plenty of chaos when wrecking everything :)

Really interesting concept, but could use more fleshing out.

Thank you, I agree, just didn’t have more time to work on it :)

Nice game concept, i wish it would be longer until the owner comes home (and i think the cat wishes too…)

\n

Some mechanic to extend the timespan would be nice.

\n

Ps: Just got the itch.io email, I’ll have a look at the enhanced game right now :-)
