<\/p>\nGame Pitch: In this game, you play as a cat. The goal is to navigate around a giant cat condo world and drop dangerous items\u00a0onto the heads of the humans below, making sure not to harm your beloved owner (aka food source). You lose if you fall and become noticed by the humans.<\/p>\n
I chose this idea because there are a lot of jokes about cats being evil but there doesn’t seem to be a serious 3D game about a cat killing people. I am also trying to create a style for what a cat’s daydream should be. I want to move\u00a0away from realistic textures so I would like to stick to one very vibrant color palette and keep everything flat shaded.<\/p>\n
Controls: To me, playing with a controller feels better than pressing randomly assigned keys on a keyboard. I will have the two joysticks control movement and vision and will use the back triggers to control the left and right paw swipes (for pushing items). Using a controller\u00a0feels more natural for left and right paw movements anyway.<\/p>\n
This image is some concept art for the point of view of the player. You will see the cat’s body, but will have to look down a bit to see the humans.<\/p>\n

A game that hasn’t come out yet, called “HK”. The main character is a cat, and they have very realistic cat movements (I will do more basic ones, but this is a good reference): https:\/\/hk-devblog.com\/<\/p>\n

Fotonica, really bright platforms (I am not interested in the linear direction though)<\/p>\n
