I’m not quite sure what this is, but it was oddly fun actually!

Fun graphics, sounds and controls. Not sure what all the things we see in the game means though :)

I found a mouse and a ball, surprisingly realistic. Reminds me of a time when I looked after a neighbours cat.

Haha, I really like the art for this. Very unique cartoon style!

\n

I couldn’t figure out how to get any goodies from the cat, so I cheated and looked at the source code to find the various combos, haha.

\n

Then, I looked at the codes being printed in Chrome Inspector console and realized that in order to make a combo, you can’t lift your mouse (i.e., you have to click and hold, then drag to each body part to complete a combo… is that right?).

\n

But yeah, amusing entry! I hope the cat is okay after eating all that stuff

Really cool art style! The sounds add a great atmosphere.\nI didn’t fully figure out the gameplay, but it was fun and made me smile 😊\nThanks for the game!

It took me a while to figure out really what I was doing, but it was fun once I started randomly clicking around and getting different gifts from the cat! Interesting idea.

Thank you for the video review. We enjoyed watching someone we didnt know play the game. Unfortunately, the instructions were not clear. To pet the cat, the mouse needs to drag over the cat with the mouse down. No poking the cat, clicking. Most that played it did not realize that and our poor cat got poked a lot by many people, instead of pet. If pet lovingly, the cat will gift many different gifts.

My daughter was the artist and we had a blast creating our mini game.

Creative idea and it wasn’t definitely the type of game I was suspecting it would be :) Nice innovative idea!

A fun game

\n

The graphics were simple yet cute

\n

I liked all the items that it “spat?” out

\n

Too much clicking for me, spamming the mouse button away from the belly

What did I just play?! Lol. I must say, the concept is quite unique. It took me a while to figure out what was expected from me, but once I got it, I tried a lot of ways to pet the cat and I could unlock quite a few items. Nice touch adding sounds effects. Overall, it’s an original concept fairly well executed.

Thanks for the review.

\n

Ya, the instruction were not very clear to drag the mouse across (pet the cat) rather than click it (poke the cat).

Super cute cat graphics!

\n

I agree with the other comments that it was confusing at first how to pet the cat, even just a sentence saying “click and drag to pet” either in game or in the description would’ve helped with that.

\n

I had a lot of fun though getting the different gifts once I got the pets working!

\n

Very realistic with the reaction to petting the wrong spot, exactly like my cat.

\n

Good job with the game!
