its an adventure game. You can beat it in about five minutes if you know what to do, very little challenge, but hopefully some fun.

It's a very enjoyable game! Pretty easy, that's true. The idea of a cat on an adventure is golden. The controls are good, it's a simple concept but it works well. The graphics are great and I like how the atmosphere changes as you progress through the game. The boss getting gradually more difficult, too.

I played it in between two classes - five minutes with a smile.

I see you're still a pro-ZZTer, zamros. :keen:

I will attempt to play this game once I'm on my PC, and bored.

I guess I forgot to mention anywhere in the game to use space to interact with things.

Thanks for the feedback guys.

EM: get bored faster.

I just recently got a chance to play this. Very, very nice! The graphics are really good, and the engine works well.

This is a gem of a game. It gave me health.

Are you an artist by chance...

Because that titlescreen art is amazing...

I used a program called zbitmap to make the title screen. I used the picture of my cat that I posted above. I changed the tint and contrast with GIMP so that it would look better when it was converted, but it took relatively little work.

Wish I knew about this program before I had started making my own.

This game is the most original I have seen for a while. I quite enjoyed it. I was supprised with the battles, I don't think I have seen anything like it in zzt before.

thanks! glad you liked it. I think the last battle part is really cool. that's why I made it 2 fights long. though overall I'm most satisfied with the escape pod sequence. I managed to make a pretty spiffy teleporter noise too, I think.
