How does your game fit the theme?
It’s a satirical game that critiques short-form video platforms (e.g., TikTok) for encouraging users to ignore real, important problems. It explores three recurring loops: (1) social disconnection, (2) daily reel consumption, and (3) disrupted sleep routines.

It's so sad being this kitty :(
I got way too invested with the notifications. Duolingo was my favorite. Oh my gosh, this game is not real. Literally, laughing on the floor, rethinking life right now. Y'all should play this game. 🫃
This game is too real 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
hahaahah hope you enjoyed it!! thank u for playing hehe <33
Poor Patches.
I have rarely had such fits of laughter in a jam (yes, I love degenerate humor), and today’s social media presentation couldn’t really be more accurate. An excellent interpretation of the loop theme, with nice drawings and very well staged reels! (I think the only thing that would have been missing for a completely realistic portrayal would have been violent and offensive videos, but I think it’s a good thing that you didn’t include those, lmao)
Bonus points for my brother Duolingo who made a brief appearance!
Very anxiety inducing and too real, well done!
so relatable, especially those "cat fitness" app notifications haha! had fun and found myself unable to stop the doomscroll cause the memes were choice!
haha I get health notification everyday but ignore it all the time!! thank u for playing and i also liked ur game a lot <33
Ohhhhh the concept is so simple yet working so well! It realllllly feels like we are too much often this cat. I loved the artworks, the memes, the neverending notifications, the jokes… well everything! Thank you for this gem!
Dang, it got real at the very end... Great way to comment on how we can be stuck in a loop, kinda like how my character is in my game. I enjoyed every reel, they were hilarious! Awesome and cute little game!
