How does the game fit the theme?
Everyone knows cats have nine lives, but not only that... They're practically invincible!

This short story follows Mimi, our cat hero with all nine lives intact. Why? You may ask. Because for a cat living in a perfectly safe and guarded house, nothing can go wrong. But what if she's tired of her perfect world? What if she's dying to go to kitty heaven, a paradise for cats where excitement knows no bounds?

Help her find a way to spend all nine lives... Nine lives too many.

Super cool game! I love the art and concept. It's very fun to explore the environment and see what's interactive. Well done :)

Developer

Thank you :)

Submitted

What a game, I loved trying to kill my cat !
More seriously, this game is so fun, and the idea is brilliant and hilarious, it fits the theme incredibly well !
Now I'm in the cat heaven I want to go to cat heaven heaven ( by finding ways to die in heaven) !!
Good job, epic submission !

Developer

Thank you! That's a good idea for a sequel!

Submitted

Cats AND puzzles? Count me in! That poor cat! I only found 7 ways but it was fun nonetheless. Great submission!

Developer

Thanks!!

Submitted

Very good, but sad game. I found all 9 ways; the freezer and ventilation in the room could be made a bit more obvious. And why are the clouds yellow? The 'Welcome' button froze everything; was that an exit for the desktop version? The melancholic music is very beautiful—simple but really resonated with me. Excellent visuals and animations. Great job!

Developer

Thank you :)

Yes, that was the quit button, it doesn't work in the web version.

Submitted

Nice idea (acually no, I like cats and don't want them to die)! Nice graphics, audio, everything! Amazing job for 7 days!

Developer

Thank you!

Submitted

I hope Kitty Heaven is worth being crushed by your owner. 

Good game, good art. Nice job

Developer

Thanks, I'm sure it is!

Submitted

Nice game with a cute graphics. BGM has good and I think you can improved with some sound effect. I want to play more. 

Developer

Thanks!

Submitted

Wow this is a really fun game! I love the art and animations. It seems like we had similar interpretations of the theme! I couldn't figure out all 9 ways to die (I got stuck after 8) but I still had a really good time playing it!

Developer

Yes it seems we had the same idea! Thank you, I loved you game too :)

Submitted

very pretty art. I wish sound setting slider was available. Kinda made me jump with headphones on. Overall very cute.

Developer

Sorry to hear that, it's true we didn't have time to implement it.

Submitted

Really cool idea, a puzzle game where the goal is to die :)

Developer

Thank you :)

Really fun game! Love the idea, and the art is wonderful. I’m down to my last life!

Developer

Thanks!

Submitted

I really like your game. The idea is great, and the artwork looks awesome.

Developer

Thank you!!

Submitted

Overall a fun game but there is little direction  to the goal of it. What am I suppose to do kill the person with a bowling ball? 
Super cute btw! Love the cat animation!

Developer

Yes, unfortunately we didn't have time to have a proper tutorial, we were just hoping that the goal would be easy to understand once the player explored the house for a while.

Submitted

This is one of the better games I've played so far, really smooth gameplay, beautiful art, straight to the point and full story. I really had a good time playing and would play again. You did a fantastic job 10/10

Developer

Wow, thank you so much!!

Submitted

The visuals are so cute, and I feel really relaxed with the game and its music. Everything fits together perfectly! I also love the fact that there are 9 lives—such a nice touch!

Developer

Thank you! Glad to see that you noticed that detail.

Submitted

Very funny and cute game!

Developer

Thanks!

Submitted

Very good music and visuals. I found the 9 ways to kill the cat, it was very fun !

Good job !

Developer(+1)

Glad to know you were able to finish it, congrats!

Submitted

Loved the theme, I have 3 cats and I can relate to always checking the washing machine all the time to make sure none are in there 

Developer

Hahaha that's right, that one was based on our experience worrying about it.

Submitted

Amazing and very relaxing experience :) loved the arts and controls playing as a cat feels so good!

Developer

Thanks!!

Submitted

Nice and cute little game, it's really fun trying to find all 9 ways to die!

Developer

Thank you :)
