Great game - one of my favorites.  I love the setup, that your computer has been hacked.  You did it really well.  the gameplay was challenging but fair and I was really proud when I won.  Excellent job hitting all the requirements Lastly, I loved it when the cat complained about how good I was at the game.  Excellent work!

Great work Sigil. Once again proving why you are a top seed. 

I loved the story and the cat's personality. It really did feel like a mischievous cat and not just any old computer virus. The gameplay was simple but just difficult enough that I was actually pretty engaged during the last fight. Sadly the game did freeze for me once I reached the target score in round 3, but I'm gonna try again now and see if I can get past that part!

I'll be surprised if this doesn't end up in top 10.

Thank you! glad you liked it :)

It was one of my favorites, and with the games that were submitted this round, that's saying a lot.

This was one of the best entry's in the jam for me. Up there with the top games in this jam and one of my personal favourites to play. Nailed the criteria as well. Great job!

The cat virus was great a concept and the game was fun. I think you nailed the round and all the requirements.  Great work!

This game was super cute and super fun. Loved the little cat and I think that was a great way to include the animal. The desktop and all of the stuff was a really nice addition and managing windows can be a pain, nice job. I found the game itself to be fun and liked the new mechanics being added although I did find it to be a bit repetitive after a bit. It didn't drag on too long but I think that it could have ended a bit earlier (maybe instead of 100-250-500 it could be 100-200-300). The story was incredibly simple but added charm to the gameplay that wouldn't have been present without it, so nice job there. Overall, great job and incredibly polished game!

New favorite Game Jam game just dropped. This is genuinely in the top 5 of ALL Game Jam games I've ever played. The story was super fun! I wish more viruses were just cats lol. All the gameplay was really captivating, managing to ensure I never looked away from my screen for a second! I would love to see an expanded version of this game, similar to "There Is No Game." I would buy it in an instant!

That was awesome. One of the best I've played so far, perfect entry.

One of my favorites for the round. Simple, but fun and the story really ties in well. Great looking UI as well, I made sure to the computer fully. Great job.

I really like the narrative with the cat .

After the game gets upgraded to the knight game how do you move? I do not seem to move but somehow some of the enemies do drop something which I am not able to pickup. I'm not able to get to 250 points 😿

Developer(+1)

You should be able to move the exact same as the first section, if not then thats a bug :(

Submitted

Do you move with the arrow keys or WASD keys? I'll try again later.

I tried again, this time around the WASD keys and arrow keys worked, not sure what was happening last time I played.

 Much more manageable to win when it is possible to move.
I managed to get rid of the cat virus 😎

Great game and cute story!

I love the overall art style with the fake PC screen, how there are some fake files to interact with, and the cute evil virus cat. The gameplay is on the simpler side, but I think that's common for a meta/story-focused game. 

Great job!

This game has such a great vibe. I'm torn because the story and gameplay are great, but the theme just feels off to me. I think there are other ways to tell this story that don't require the computer interface. At the same time, the meta kitty cat memeing on me is great! Maybe instead of a cat computer program, it could be a goblin dungeon I'm trying to escape? I dunno. All that is just nitpicking anyway, you've made a great game. Thanks for making me smile!

Yeah thats fair, i had plans to use the desktop more but didnt have the time

Submitted

Very fair. Overscope is a killer in these things. I feel the same for my game tbh
