A Miniscule Mystery

This is an entry for the Secret Santa Jam 2020 and the 4th Winter Gamejam. Will likely also be submitted to Decade Jam :]

There is a third cat in the game ;]

I didn't manage to make all the art I wanted to, but oh well, that's a game jam for you.

The game was specifically made for etmm and his cats. However, I shoehorned it into Winter Game Jam as well because I had to do both on the same weekend and the deadlines were just five hours apart. Inspiration includes "Speed Dating for Ghosts", although it did turn out less interrogate-y than I originally intended.

There will be a slightly more polished post-jam version, hopefully before Christmas.

Controls: keyboard only, space or enter, up/down arrow keys or w/s.

Source code: extract the .love file is probably the easiest way to access it.
