Eh, it's not a good look to have broken stuff in your big hyped-up demo. They've got to fix it eventually anyhow.

That was lovely! The challenges were difficult, but not overly so, and the music and atmosphere were both very nice. I noticed the screen would occasionally shake a bit after a transition, but I almost feel like that just added to the ambiance of being in a cave. I got 13 on my first run. Time to see if I can grab those last two!
Edit: I just got them! I have to admit I'm pretty bad at the trick from the end, but I think I'll get it with a bit of practice.
I think that's the first time I've ever seen a "screw you" section in the credits, lol.
Fun game. The cats-eating-blocks mechanic felt fresh. I don't think I've seen it in a puzzle game before, though I admit I don't play too many of these.
Could probably use an actual tutorial at the beginning of the adventure mode. There were a few times where wins or losses would come up so fast I didn't really understand what was happening. It looks like the rules might change as you go, too, so maybe an explanation of that somewhere?
Your take on the double-jump is really creative! I think the only thing I didn't like was the lack of checkpoints. Respawning at the last upgrade gets kinda tedious when you're trying to figure out a room and get sent four screens back each time you die. Maybe make the little yellow mushroom house in the central area into checkpoint when that room is entered.
Whoops, I found a bug on the bonus route. I think it's because it doesn't remember the name I entered from previous runs.
While running game code:
File "game/bonus.rpy", line 20, in script
mc "YES! It's her! She's coming here to find me!"
KeyError: u'mcname'
