Great game! Movement felt crisp and smooth. Great work on the running animation + sound too! I liked the 2nd last room the most. I didn't realize  the movement abilities were tied to the potions till that room when I got stuck.

Awesome game! Love the art and atmosphere, plus the maze room was really fun :)

Okay, let me preface this with: I am TERRIBLE at platformers, but the name and cute kitty drew me in.

  • Loved the little intro story and the cat expressions were ADORABLE. Definitely shed a tear at the very cute expression as they were looking at one another.
  • Minor note, but maybe allow the character to jump before the jumping prompt in the beginning?
  • Really dig the background reminder prompts as you are learning skills
  • Body swap? GENIUS idea. And I love the "room is dark for the human, room is lit for the shadow kitty" mechanic.
  • Music is super mellow, minor key, and focus inducing, so well done musician!

Great potential for those rage/grindy game players! I only played about 15 minutes, and got stuck in the room with the floor spikes and the new 3rd potion. Good luck with your submission! This was my first played game of the jam. :)
