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 dig this artstyle, the cuteness overload kills me hahaha. I enjoyed it a lot honestly, gives me strong Binary Land vibes which is always a good thing. Super fun, and didn't expect it to have so many levels.
Thank you so much! We glad you enjoyed the artstyle. The Binary Land comparison is really cute, thank you! :)
I really liked the game!, it has an addictive game loop. In fact, I think you should submit this puzzle game to crazy games or poki! My suggestion is that you should do that if you run out of moves it should instantly restart the level, you can even make it mobile friendly..
Thanks so much! I'm really glad you enjoyed it!
The reason we didn't implement an automatic restart is that you can undo your moves by pressing U. Sometimes it only takes a small adjustment to solve the level, so we wanted to give players the chance to recover instead of forcing a restart.
Thanks again for playing and for the great suggestion! :)
Such a cute interpretation! I love the style of these two cats; it reminds me of the fairy tale books from my childhood.
Thank you! We are really happy you liked the cat artwork. The comparison to the fairy tale books is such a sweet compliment. Thanks for playing! :)
Very nice game! Levels are quite challenging and has a lot of replayability factor. Reminds me of Baba is You simple yet challenging.
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed the puzzles and the challenge. The Baba Is You comparison is a huge compliment. We love games that are simple to understand but more difficult to solve. Really appreciate the kind words and support! :)
Cute puzzle game!! Although some levels were quite challenging I had a great time trying to solve the puzzles. Great work!! Congratulations!
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed the game and the puzzles. Some levels are definitely tricky, so it is great to hear you had fun solving them. Really appreciate the kind words and support! :)
Hello! That's a pretty cute puzzle game here, I really enjoyed it! The steps limit really help the game, so you have to make sure every step count(down). And graphically I would say it fits perfectly the vibe of the story and gameplay.
Good job with the game!
The VOD (game is at 2:53:00)
Thank you so much for having us on the stream! It was really fun watching you play and seeing how you figured out the puzzles. Glad you enjoyed the game! Really appreciate the support and thank you for sharing it! :)
❤️
Really Cool Game!! this is just like the Flash/HTML5 game Fireboy and Watergirl but if you turn it TopDown like Baba is You. the narrative and story was so good! i hope you also make a executable version after the jam ends..
Thank you! We are glad you enjoyed the game and its narrative. We definitely took inspiration from classic puzzle games. We really appreciate your support and we’ll release an executable version once the game jam has ended! :)
Fun and cute while still fairly challenging. Nicely done!
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed the game! :)
Solid puzzle game with such a classic feel!
I almost feel like I played this on miniclip as a kid haha
Would've loved to hear some more SFX but impressive amount of challenging levels for 4 days so that was certainly worth your time haha
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed the classic puzzle feel and the amount of levels. More SFX would definitely have been nice, thanks for the feedback! :)
Super fun game! puzzle 6 was tough on me. The artwork is great; I love the copying cats theme.
Thank you! Glad you had fun with it. Level 6 is definitely a tricky one. Really happy you liked the art and the cat theme! :)
A cute puzzle game (that I certainly didn't have the brain power for while playing on stream lol)
Nothing super new in terms of concept, but well-made puzzles and charming art ^^
Thank you for playing! Glad you enjoyed the puzzles and art. Haha, playing on stream definitely adds some extra pressure :)
Loved it; maybe you should also add hints if a player gets stuck. Other than that, a great concept. The music is a bit boring; it's not for me. The game itself is great.
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed the game and the concept. Hints are a great suggestion and we'll definitely keep that in mind :)
Great puzzles. Too difficult for me to finish the game though :D
I might come back to it later with a fresh mind later. The polish is crazy for a game made in 4 days.
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed the puzzles. Some of them can definitely be tricky. Don't give up! Really appreciate the kind words! :)
Good work and well done on the puzzles.
Thank you so much! :)
Cool puzzles. Cute art! Initially I thought they were cows my bad actually. Cool well thought puzzles
Thank you! I can see how they might look like cows at first :P
Glad you enjoyed the puzzles and the art!
Cool gimmick with a lot of potential! Really simple ideas often works the best, and this is one of those :)
Thank you! We glad you liked the idea! :)
Fun puzzle game to play, cute kittens and nice story. Really like the vibe of the game!
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it :)
This game is pretty good! As mentioned in other comments, this game plays a lot like Baba is You, which is great! I like the limited move mechanic, it makes the levels more challenging, as opposed to just lining up the cats' positions. Good work!
Thank you for playing and the kind words! :)
Great game! Some puzzles are real headscratchers, but that's to be expected. It reminds me a bit of Baba is You. While playing I had a feeling I experienced something before, then it came to me. It's always great to be inspired by other great games! Was it actually (partially) inspired by that, or I'm just projecting?😅
Thank you so much for the feedback! Yes, we are huge Baba Is You fans, so it definitely inspired parts of our game :)
Tbh aside from the font being so different from the artstyle. I really like evrything else
Thank you for the feedback! We considered creating a custom font, but unfortunately there wasn’t enough time to do so :)
