\n\n“Launch. Lunch. Litter.”
\n
A game about a black cat that bounces like a slingshot, eating mice to regain stamina while every jump drains it -\nwith a twist.
\nDrag and release the cat like a slingshot to launch it across the field and catch mice.\nJumping consumes stamina based on distance traveled, each mouse you eat restores it.\nSurvive waves of increasingly clever mice that flee faster and farther from you as the game progresses.
\nA fun game! Funny polar cat ) Feels the physics of soft bodies) It’s also cool music!

I would have appreciated some kind of progressive levels as I was not able to catch all the mouses after 7 or 8 attempts (my best score is 18 mouses). Great job!

The game was fun, and slightly difficult. The poop was a fun twist, not sure how it impacts gameplay, but I laughed. Appreciate the indicators of where the mice are, and the trajectory path! The music was good without being repetitive. The «boss» part was my favorite part of the music
\nI think the mice could have been larger, making them easier to hit. I only cleared 2 waves, so not sure if we have other enemies, but some variation could elevate the game. Good job on the entry!

\nInnovation\nThe slingshot mechanic mixed with stamina management is a fresh twist. I liked how the mice behavior evolves — running faster and smarter forces the player to adjust strategy instead of just spamming jumps.
\nGameplay\nSimple to pick up but engaging. The tension between conserving stamina and chasing down mice keeps each round interesting. It ramps up difficulty at a good pace. A scoreboard or progression element could add extra replay motivation.
\nGraphics\nClean, charming art style that works well at this scale. The black cat silhouette and cover art give it personality. A bit more animation polish on the cat and mice would make it even more lively.
\nAudio\nSound design is effective and adds punch to launches and catches. The audio feedback really helps sell the slingshot feeling. Background music (even a simple loop) might give it more atmosphere.
\nControls\nDrag-and-release feels intuitive on both desktop and mobile. No friction here — it does exactly what you expect.

I feel like it’s a bit “easy” to wait for the stamina to pop in order to move infinitely, so I would’ve maybe added a slow decrease over time, but that’s really all I have to say. Congratulations and good luck!

The wobbly cat is just so much fun, and the implementation is so darn smooth! Only the UI bits need a bit of polish and you could definitely release this game. It would do well on mobile, but i would improve the controls there and make the canvas fill the whole window. On mobile I would expect to be able to tap and drag anywhere on the screen, otherwise my finger covers the cat and I can’t see the direction indicator.
\nI just love your background music. One of the best this year. The sound effects are cute too.
\nAs far as gameplay goes, it’s quite basic, and there’s not much in terms of challenges or goals. It’s a “play until you die” kinda game. But what is there is really fun. Great job.

\nNice jiggly cat physics! I found it hard to get good precision on my jumps and since every jump consumes stamina you get into a situation where you can fairly quickly run out of stamina. I think I’d make the game time based instead and remove the stamina component. That way you can more frantically jump around to catch mice and only worry about the timer. Good music and sound effects! And cute touch when you’re full and have to “purge yourself” :-)

\nYou make a great point about the stamina mechanic and how it can get in the way of the jump precision. That’s super valuable feedback, and I completely see how a timer-based approach could feel more fun and frantic. I’ll definitely be implementing a timer mechanic in the upcoming Director’s Cut Edition, so your suggestion lines up perfectly with where I want to take the game.
\nAppreciate the thoughtful notes - it really helps me polish the experience further!

\nFantastic work on this game! First off, you actually MADE an audio track - that’s awesome for such a small game.
