Cute game! The ending was great haha. I liked how the cat swatted the items when you fished up the wrong one.

Nope - I've completed at least one game jam before.
How does your game fit the theme?
Twisted the theme, literally. Just Get Started - but what if you can't... because of an orange cat.

An interesting take on the fighting the game motif. Well executed with a good art style for what it is.
A fellow orange cat game!! :D
This game was really cute and fun. I loved the cat's face when you fished up the wrong item, that was probably my favourite part! Also the cat throwing the start button back in because I didn't get all the fish first, and basically saying "okay, now you can get it" after being fed all types of fish? Hilariously petty 😆
Wow really liked this one! 😂
The cat was very cute and the art direction was spot on, honestly the best part for me was the endings, figuring out and reading the poem was so fun, really had to brain expansion for that secret ending haha, very engaging and clever, wasn't expecting a fishing minigame in a annoying cat game premise, I do wish it was somewhat related to dealing with a annoying cat, but I guess it does make sense in a way how cats eat fish, but it was just surprising, very short and sweet, made me laugh for sure.
Overall, amazing job!
Thanks for playing! I planned more stuff in between the start and the fishing, but ran out of time. I wanted the ending to be "fishing the start button back up" since it fell down, and it ended up taking up a huge chunk of the game.
Thanks a lot for even achieving the secret ending as well! I hope you liked the twist heheh.
My cat does the exact same thing when I try to game :). I really liked the art style of this game, and it fit the theme really well!
awesome submission! was really fun to play. the art and sfx were great.
This is a hidden gem! Although it's a simple game, I loved it! I didn't expect the cat to appear and do all the other things, I really want to say how the cat and every detail of the game was cute, but I don't want to give spoilers to someone reading the comments x)
Amazing game dude, this was pretty fun!
This game is so cute! I played it last night before the judging began so I had to come back and give it a score!
That cat is some kind of eldritch beast. The tongue animation gives it away
