Great concept - would like to see it without the 'only movement' hinderance, as i think it detracts from the gameplay. The game itself is a lot of fun and well executed - good job

Wow, I loved playing this game - I got up to wave 29 before I had to stop due to time, but it was a lot of fun! 
I loved the music, it is purrfect, haha! Super cute and funny lyrics. I loved the little speech bubbles giving the units funny character. Great variety of enemy units! I loved upgrading the King and his squad and taking an active part in the defense. sacrificing myself strategically multiple times to take out the early minigunners :) I am very impressed by the art style and the polish is super impressive, and all the different upgrade trees and options, and I like the ability to invest in the economy, and all the compounding damage and health upgrades felt great to invest in! 
I only noticed a couple of minor issues: I noticed some buildings where I had difficulty standing on the upgrade circles (north catnip farms - perhaps just a bit crowded with the other buildings, still possible). And the towers to the far east: it seemed like their collision detection was just a touch too far down, so I couldnt upgrade options 1 or 3, 2 could just work on one below the road , but nothing on the one above - perhaps due to the enemy warning? 

 I noticed the squad members can sometimes get stuck to the south of the river unless you lead them over the bridge, just a minor pathing thing. :)
I would love an option to turn off just the music, or lower the volume perhaps, instead of also disabling the sound effects when you press "M". The sound effects are great, and I miss them when disabled.

Amazing game, thank you for enabling us to resume the game later, really well done overall!! 

First of all, thank you so much for your recording of Shmoop! It reminds me that these things are played by real people and our decisions impact their real time!!

This is obviously a "complete game" done in a week for a jam, which is a fascinating place we find ourselves in at this juncture of space and the aforementioned "real time."

Everything here is amazing. The music is too amazing, the gameplay and design are an extremely strong implementation of a 2d lane tower defense with a lot of really interesting design expansion.

If I had to create any criticism at all it would be that the graphics can simply go further. This is almost the inverse of what I produced which was a relatively mechanically simple, but visually-expounded-upon eye-candy test. Here instead, we have *all the other parts of the game* with very light eye candy.

That's not bad, it's respectful to the player in some way, but because *everything else is so developed* it stands out as the only place left to offer critique.

Really great game, unbelievably fun song, and thank you again for your time!

Feedback on Kitty Kingdom

Wow - This is an extremely well-polished game! I could see the effort in it, so I wanted to give you detailed feedback that you could potentially just paste into Claude (I did have Claude organize my thoughts below). I'm maybe being more critical here but it's because this is a fantastic submission.

What worked really well

• Early progression. Once I got through the first couple of nights and found the flow, the small number of buildings made it easy to learn. Upgrading the castle and seeing new building slots open up was a delightful surprise.
• The AOE upgrade circles are intuitive and well done.
• The buildings’ flavor text was a great idea. It makes the kingdom feel lively and dynamic.
• Upgrade depth. Each building has multiple upgrades with different variations, and the choices were interesting enough that I took my time deciding based on the building slot locations & the enemies I saw coming from their nearby paths.

Biggest issue: too many nights

• I was fully upgraded around night 30–35, but the game runs to 100 waves. After night 35 I was just standing on the day/night flag, which makes the late game a real drag. I'm actually writing this review while on night 53 standing on the flag. I'm not sure if I'll finish because I've got to pick up my kids in an hour. 
• There’s already a lot of content, so I’d suggest cutting the number of nights roughly in half or more.
• If you’d rather keep it long, it would need more upgrades, a deeper map, or unlockable map areas.

Bugs

1. Wave indicator blocks upgrades.
   • During the day, a UI element shows which units are coming and from which path. Walking up to it shows more detail.
   • That indicator takes precedence over the upgrade interaction. If a wave is coming from the east, the nearby outskirt tower slot can’t be upgraded.
   • I couldn’t upgrade a few spots when I wanted to because of this.
   • Suggested fix: disable the indicator when the player is near a building that can be upgraded. Zoom might also help.
2. Stuck night (Day 28).
   • The ships destroyed my buildings in the lower-left corner and then stopped moving, so the night never ended.
   • The workaround is to have the king kill them, but it took a while and probably isn’t intended because I saw the ships continue north on another wave.

Suggestions

• Upgrade indicator. In the late game (nights 20–30) I spent most of my day looking for buildings I hadn’t upgraded yet. Could the little colored circle next to each building become a star or another distinct shape? That would give an at-a-glance read on upgrade status. I’m also not sure what the different colors mean.
• Music. It sounds like one track on loop. Getting to night 30 took me an hour to an hour and a half. I can be a slow-ish decision-maker in these types of games, but in any case a 5-minute track repeated that long gets repetitive. I’d add two or three more tracks and rotate them.
• Zoom. As the map gained slots, the upgrade circles got very condensed. A zoom would make fine movement easier during the day.
• Movement speed building. The dash is nice, but walking around would be more fun if I could sink coins into permanent speed upgrades.

Ideas for expansion (only if you want them, since there’s plenty already)

• More upgrades
• Unlockable map areas
• Different levels with different paths and building spots

Amazing work for a jam. Great showing!

I had fun with this one! I felt the gameplay was fun and fair. I will definitely think about making a game of this sort down the line. 

Very nice! I played till night 8 and couldn't get past. Feels a bit unforgiving, but I didn't even know I could build houses, windmills or catnip farms until then so I wasn't making enough money to build enough of an army to fight back. User error. Otherwise great pivot on the restriction! Really fun.
