Love xenofiction! Perspectives from the pet are interesting to see in horror because of their ability to see both the supernatural elements and the more mundane evils of a household. The art is wonderfully unsettling (the monster in the hall and in two endings was especially creepy), and the cat was very expressive without completely losing that feline deadpan. Short and sweet story that leaves us wanting more but alas, we are a cat

Developer

Yes ! we are cat ^^

Developer

Thank you very much for the compliments. Have a wonderful day!

OMFG WTF!  What is in the woods!?  Don't let it follow you home!   Ack!
I was scared when the cat kept saying that white haired people were disappearing because WE(the cat and thus also me) had WHITE fur!!!!
Luckily, the cat was standing on business.  

Developer

Wow. Characters in games with white hair (or white fur, in the case of cats) are always special—and you, too, are special, in the best possible way. Have a wonderful day!

Really cute game, I love the cat and little cat noises! :D Very interesting story as well, and great job doing this in two languages as well!!

Thank you! Yes, the meowing and purring sounds came from my cat. The high-pitched screeching when attacked, however, was me—I recorded it myself and pitched it up.

Deeply charming little game. Two languages is impressive for a Jam game! And who doesn't love a game about a cat, with voice acting credits for a cat? The downside is that I was so caught up in how cute Miu was, that when the jumpscare appeared, it genuinely got me! Haha. Bonus points for including the real cat on the game page. I really liked this one, and got every ending.

Thank you! You're right—I knew some people would be startled, just like I was when I first tested it. The game has three endings, so I'm really glad you found them all. Have a great day!

As for the voice acting, the meowing and purring sounds came from my own cat, while I performed the hissing myself; I recorded and pitch-adjusted the audio using Audacity software.
