Kitty Kitty Boing Boing
the Happy Adventure in Puzzle Garden!

Has just been released on Steam! http://store.steampowered.com/app/519200/

It's pretty self-explanatory as to what sort of game it is. It's a puzzle platformer with some action elements. Here are some screenshots.. I created everything except the audio. Hope you like!

I'd want to see some more polish on the game itself before I vote for it.
The animations and soundwork is good, but the gameplay itself looks way slower-paced than it could be and outside of that pseudotetris level showcased in the trailer it doesn't really seem to have anything there to set it apart.

I agree with mysterymeat, the game looks nice and cute but the gameplay looks waay too slow. Looks like you have a consistent game already but I'd heavily consider making the gameplay more dynamic!  upvoted, good luck    :y:

I dig the sleepy pace.
Gets me in the mood.

But maybe add a Turbo Mode option for players that find it too slow.
The game could move at 1.5 speed and give the kitty sunglasses.  8)

Thanks everyone!
That's an interesting suggestion, PixelPiledriver. I like the idea of a Turbo mode option. I'll see if I can implement something like that.

I've been meaning to ask: did this start out from the standard EGA palette? At first glance I get a very strong EGA vibe, only on closer inspection do I notice the greater number of colours.

No, I didn't start with any preset palette. I just chose whichever colors I felt looked good.
That's interesting that you get an EGA vibe from it.

So the game is pretty much done, but now I need a few people to test it.
I'm interested first in knowing how it runs on linux/osx , so if any steam users want to test my game on one or both of those, send me a message with your specs, etc.

Congratulations mate, I will buy as soon as my wallet allows. How was it making the game compatible with steam?

Thanks everyone!
@Probo, the process was fairly straightforward. You don't have to do too much unless you want to use features offered with their steamworks api. Although there is a large checklist of things to do in order to get the store ready and your game builds setup in their system.
