How does the game fit the theme?
Every scratch is a gamble, keep scratching to earn more biscuits, but one mistimed scratch while the owner is watching and it’s all over.

It’s simple but cleverly designed.
Very cute and simple! I love the visual style and I think it makes for a nice short experience overall!
Cute and quick game! The scratching sound is really satisfying and the artstyle is lovely. Good job!
Thank You! My wife actually made the scratching noise herself on our couch that is oddly enough covered in cat scratches!
Thanks for making this! I enjoyed the scratch sound effects too, and moving to find a good strat to finish it.

simple game, not much to say but it's a great game!
Simple but fun game! For some reason I really like the scratch sound effect, and the art is really good too! Something that I think will add to the gameplay is if there was some kind of cue that tells you when your owner is going to look. Either something visual or auditory. Other than that, great entry!

Wow! Well, it was super satisfying to me!
Very cute! I'm not patient enough to win though ;)
Very nice! It's got a very cute vibe, well done!
Fun.
Great game. Had fun with it. Managed to beat it on third attempt :P
Noticed after a certain point, you can consistently get 2-3 clicks between each look from the owner :)
Very cute game, spamming the scratch button was very fun. My only critique is that I got both the loss and win screen at the same time somehow? Not exactly sure what happened but I assume that my final click both ended the game and got me caught at the same time. Still, I really liked your game!
During testing I only had this happen once! Thank you for sharing! I think I know the problem now!
great game

Cute idea, nice art, fits theme, has a cat :)
what else do you need, right?
Nice idea and well executed, although some form of indicator before the owner turns would be nice. At the moment getting caught often feels random and not because you haven't been careful. I got caught for scratching once because the owner turned away and immediately back.
The game is really cute, I like the concept so much lol
Simple and cozy. Would love to see this ideia expand more!
adorable and cozy yet very simple and fun game,love it!!
Pretty simple concept. I wish there was more of an indicator for when the owner was going to turn around. Something like tapping their foot or moving their head. That would make me want to risk more hoping I could catch the movement and stop scratching in time. Right now it just seems random and the biggest payoff is to do one scratch as soon as they turn around. I did not encounter any bugs that I could discern. Good entry!
I can now completely understand why cats do that. Great simple game. Keep it up!
