This is such a charming game with a really engaging world! I loved how the game recounted my adventure at the end and how you handled the cat-POV throughout. I did find the structure of the game confusing at times (like what branches let to what choices and how to get out of loops), which is a common problem in interactive fiction. As the writer, you see everything behind the scenes and it's easy to take that for granted. I also found myself wondering what difference I as the player was making in the narrative since it seemed like I could just take almost every path.
The benefit of smaller games like this is being able to fully flesh out multiple short narrative branches, so I would've loved to see you take full advantage of that!
As a cat, I safely come back home. I really like the interation of this game. It provide sooo much interaction that you can do. It is really intereating for me.
This was so charming, both in concept and execution.
I love how the descriptions of things sound like descriptions an actual cat would use, like referring to a tangle of circuitry as something that would "make a ball of yarn proud".
I also like how concise the reading segments were, it felt very engaging.
I really like the imagery of this cyberpunk setting I could vividly imagine the setting due to the level of detail in the descriptions. also, I was able to make it home safely.
I love the setting of playing as a cat! I chose to climb high first time playing this game, cause that's what cats love to do. and I got home safely which is nice.
I got very excited when I realized we were playing as a cat!! I love the descriptions given from the cat's perspective (the cat's favorite laser pointer being even more appreciated by the end of the story is a cute touch!) and I enjoy the premise of being a small creature exploring a large, complex world.
I did end up repeating some choices by accident, and I think that you could give players more context for some of the actions they take, as I found myself arbitrarily making decisions because it was a little unclear where the narrative was taking me.
Very nice game. The things which I found most successful and endearing about the narrative were the moments when you reminded us that we were viewing the world from a cat's perspective, such as the description of the robots as a cucumber party or the preference for taking a high path (natural to feline instincts!) The narrative felt a little underdeveloped at points, which complicated my ability to make some choices with a sense of purpose. I would love to see an expanded version someday. Good effort!
I really enjoyed your descriptive writing—it brings the world and story to life. However, I found myself repeating many of the same experiences and options throughout the game. It made some parts feel a bit redundant

Overall, I enjoyed this! Good job! :D
