How does your game fit the theme?
Through its limited move count. Every input moves all cats at once and reduces the counter, so you are constantly counting down toward zero. Players must plan carefully, use special tiles, and collect extra moves to guide every cat to its matching yarn ball before the countdown runs out.

I recently played Order of the sinking star (genre Sokoban) so did some shennanigans with copies there too in the mirror world.

So I started great, but this is certainly harder (count down) and also explores lot of design space with the copies.

Really great stuff. Congrats on releasing a great well designed game!

Made it through all the levels! 8 really earned its 10/10 difficulty rating, that one took me a couple dozen tries, but it's really satisfying when you figure out the solution. Great job on the design there!

I also thought the cats were cute, I enjoyed the intro and outro with them talking and planning their shenanigans. I thought the pacing of the levels was neat, I liked how it introduced mechanics like the additional moves, the arrows, then did a couple of easier levels, then a hard one to really test you. I thought that was really neat. Well done game, great job!

Great concept rly fun puzles and nice art. My only complaint is i feel like the puzzles cound have been a little more dificult and or make the player have to think about their environment differently. Over all great job this game has a lot of potential.

Ohhh i love this kind of games. Reminded me of  Baba is you but kind of more difficult as you use 2 characters and have limited movement. Love the game overall!

Thank you for the feedback! We are glad you enjoyed the challenge. We really like difficult games like Baba Is You, so it was definitely an inspiration :)

Cute puzzle game, the artwork is pretty good

Thank you so much! We had a lot of fun designing the art :)

Great game, feels clean, the only thing I could say is that the font could be a bit more fitting with the rest of the game!

Developer

Thank you! We are really happy the game felt clean. We have heard a few comments about the font, so that is definitely something we will take another look at :)

The intro was way too long (read: slow and unskippable :p ) ! The gameplay was fun and played smoothly! Very simplistic but well excecuted 

Developer

Thank you for the feedback! You are right, the intro could definitely be faster and skippable. We are glad the gameplay felt smooth and fun :)

The art’s simplicity is what I admired the most from this game. Though I didn’t really do much on the puzzle because of the difficulty spike, the copycat mechanic is really cool! Great job!

Developer

Thank you for the feedback! We are really happy you liked the art. The difficulty does ramp up quite a bit, so we added some hints for the harder levels. Thanks! :)

I don't think the puzzle style really clicked with me, but the art and presentation were a lot of fun. I'm always a sucker for hand-drawn art, especially within the constraints of the jam. I do have a couple nitpicks about the presentation though:-I think that's just the default font? Either way, it would be nice to have a more characterful font. -Some sort of visual overlay when out of moves to make it a bit more obvious. Ala what Baba is You does if nothing is you.

Developer

Thank you for the honest feedback and for giving the game a try! We are glad the art stood out to you. The font is actually not the default one, but we agree that it could have a bit more character. A clearer visual effect when you run out of moves is also a great suggestion :)

Pretty solid puzzle game, I got stuck on the later levels but it was still a good time :)

Developer

Thank you! The later levels can get pretty tricky, so we added a few hints in case you would like to give them another try. We are glad you still liked it :)

The puzzle can be challenging, but it has a lot of potential for a bigger, proper release :D

Well done :D

Developer

Thank you for the kind feedback and for playing our game on stream! We had a lot of fun watching :)

This game is pretty good! It has some pretty challenging puzzles and a nice style. Only criticism is about the text bubbles acting weird with multiple lines, but that is really minor. Great job, good game!

Developer

Thank you! We are really glad you enjoyed the game. The text definitely need a little more polishing, so we appreciate you pointing that out :)

Submitted(+1)

I have nothing to say, near perfect entry honestly, good concept, artstyle and the difficulty is just right, well done!

Developer

Thank you so much! This really means a lot to us :)

Cute story with two cats, chill music, although I wasn’t sure why’d we have a limited amount of moves? Would be better if you’d have some story-driven justification for that! Fun cats sprites!

Developer

Thank you for the feedback! The move limit was mainly added to make the puzzles more challenging, but giving it a story-related explanation is a really nice idea :)

Submitted(+1)

Cute game :) It felt really polished. Was a bit hard but thats prolly just me. Well done overall!

Developer

Thank you! We are really glad you liked it. We added some hints for the more difficult levels, in case you would like to give it another try :)
