    Oh my god THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE SHOUT-OUT!!!! It means so much to me that we got to show more folks this incredible game. It really affected me, and I'm so so happy you got a kick out of watching us go through it. It feels surreal to have a piece of art make such an impact on you and being able to do the same back in some small way. I've loved discovering your work and I'm so excited to see what you do next. :)

    Happy Birthday! I'm glad to see you recognize 4:3 as the only real aspect ratio.
    Kitten Burst has been a huge inspiration for me and a few other devs I know. I just want you to know that your creativity and passion for this medium is infectious enough to bring even the most jaded indie devs to tears, and I am so happy you got it done.

    Even ignoring the fact that it's the first game from a solo dev, kitten burst is honestly just a good game, it's hard to find anything major to complain about. Also Hapi's purr being Lola's purr is so sweet.

    Really. Props to the youtubers. I'm in a similar journey, developing a solo game in Unreal for about 2 years now. Producing all the soundtrack and like you, dont know anyone in real life who listen to this kind of stuff, it's scary. Also, I am brazilian, where there arent many tutorials and tips about the indie videogame industry. But you and many others content creators make it all doable and inspiring. I almost feel like I must record some videos of solutions I figured out in engine to give all this help back, maybe I'll do it after a more solid state of the project. Anyway, Thanks Jam2go

It's very reassuring seeing someone explore so many mediums and different avenues but express their creativity by bringing it all into one project, i think that's what i love most about video games, and your game/dev journey reminds me to just enjoy the process. so thank you for very much for that!

    It would be interesting if the cat traveled through the trends of the different decades, from the ytps and random home video recordings of 2004-2009, torrets guy etc , the angry reviewers of 2008-2010 like avgn and the nostalgia critic, the let's players of the early to mid 2010s, the drama and cringe culture of the mid 2010s to today of the streamers and vtuber trends.
