Technical part

The cat uses a poorly handmade softbody simulation, i wanted to try something like LocoRoco for a while, and i took the oportunity to do it here. As you can see, it turned out... scary... The good part is that i know why it happened, but i prefered to leave it there and distort the whole level instead, maiking it more "Noisy", as the theme was "Stealth". (At first it was a noise mess of simulation, but i had to keep the cat away from exploding because that made the game unplayable).

Blog part
At first i had no idea of what i wanted to to, because stealth seems kind of restrictive in terms of gameplay, so i couldn't find any tweak nor special feature to make the game unique, plus the scoreboard doesn't really fit into a stealth game, so it was an interesting restriction set. 

Three weeks before the jam or so, i though i would have to do the jam while on a family trip to a village with no internet connection, but while we were on that trip, we had to cancel the last days because of work issues, so i enjoyed a shorter trip and finally i was at home for the jam, and luckily it was like that, i dont know what i would have done without internet, but i think it would have been another interesting restriction, so maybe i will try it for another jam.
