Cute and very nice!

Not sure I understood everything, but nobody understands cats, right?

This was a fun game! I liked trying to balance all my stats and create a genius cat. The multitasking with all the different minigames going on at once was fun and added a nice level of hectic-ness to the game. I like the art a lot in the game, the cat is so cute. I think the only thing I wanted was some kind of ending to the game, once my cat was 10 years old it didn't seem to keep aging or anything. Great work!

Thank you for playing! I enjoyed watching your stream and am glad that you liked the game. Maxing out the Constitution was difficult because of the imperfect balance in food effects, but you did it nevertheless. Congrats!

As for the ending, we thought of showing a pet card with final stats and some fun statistics/history, but we were too short on time to add it.

A very cute and fun game. The memory game was definitely the hardest part. A number of cards were same shape but different color, and it’s easy to get distracted petting my adorable kitty and making sure to add food to the bowl, so I kept forgetting which card was where. Maybe I need to level up my wit stat too. Great game!

Thank you for playing and for your encouraging feedback!

Very cute game! I liked it a lot.

My one point of feedback would be to add a little something to keep the gameplay fresh, since it doesn't change at all as you play and as your cat grows. This could've even been done by gradually unlocking the different minigames one by one over time, just to add some kind of progression.

Just my opinion though, the game is already really good! Love the art too

Thank you for playing! The idea of progression is really interesting. I also believe that gradually unlocking new games or adding components to existing ones can make the game more engaging. We didn’t have time before the deadline to try anything like this, though.

Although I don't really play a lot of this style of game I could really tell the amount of effort that was put into it. Great job, nicely done!

Hack 'n' Harvest

Thank you for giving it a try! We wanted to include more in-game hints or explanations on how to play, but we ran out of time. This is a point-and-click game. Each section of the bento box has a mini-game, except the one with the stats. You play mini-games to increase your pet’s stats. Then, after it sleeps, the stats are reorganized into traits, and you see the result. The traits improve from one sleep cycle to another.

Awesome game! I loved the japanese aesthetics. Growing a cat was a really good take on the theme as well, nice submission

I love cats! Cure graphics, cute music, cute cat - what else there is to desire?

I like cats, Japan and food. Perfect game for me! I found it strange that cat sleeps once in 2-3 years xD. Nice relaxing game. But the game froze when my cat was 8 years 10 months for some reason

Thank you for playing and for your kind words! Good catch with the freeze, we saw the freeze once or twice too, but we didn’t manage to fix it yet.

Well, I may have had the clumsiest cat alive, but they sure were happy!

Cute game, a bit frenetic for a pet simulator though

Thank you for playing! Yeah, sometimes the life of a pet owner may seem a bit too dynamic, but you can always concentrate on one thing at a time—this could be a good strategy.
