FYI, an update has been submitted that fixes the crashes on older devices, and also adds a map! (More levels are also coming in an add-on pack... we're trying to see if the server-side of the level sharing stuff is going to be done really soon or not, but if it's going to take longer than a couple weeks we'll release the level pack as an update, and then enable Kitty Connect in the next update)
The map update looks really cool, and something thats needed urgently due to the big maps size. As someone said before me, if this game gains a story mode like Metroid it would be much much better, with some conections between levels and some text to go along.
Man, I'm really struggling with this one. I just keep getting lost all the time! Hopefully the new map will help! Are there only 6 levels too? I can't seem to find an editor, though I've read some comments that suggest this is one - in fact, it was this that prompted me to take the plunge...
The editor is the leftmost icon in the menu select screen, it's called kitty or something. This was mentioned near the start of this thread... Have a play, it's fun...
Cheers, I thought it was in there somewhere, but the menus aren't very self-explanatory! I also got terribly lost during even the Notice Level, and kept going over areas I'd already been. I like it, but I don't love it yet... maybe it's a grower.
Well the map is about to be released which will help, and there will be plenty of levels once we can share them with each other. I like this game /editor, the only thing I miss is the ability to wall jump.
Drat! When I saw "adds a map" I thought you were adding another level to play through. The map is nice too, but I hope it can be turned on/off as needed. I think I might enjoy having to remember the layouts and since there isn't a penalty for taking your time I didn't mind wandering a bit.
The addition of that map is a lifesaver; for some reason though I couldn't find red doors on the map after I had already found some earlier. It needs a pinch zoom effect (even better if you could do that instead of having to pause). A little pinch zoom and panning ingame would be cool as well to check around for enemies and blind drops. Can't wait for the online level editor update.
Game Impressions Personally I just don't get this game at all. I can't get attached to the main character as he seems to have zero personality and I really don't understand what the point of the game is (apart from "getting kitty", of course). Each level just seems like an endless slog trying to reach the end. I know that the different apps open new parts of the level, but it just doesn't seem fun to me Ah well, can't love them all I guess!
Game Impressions I think that there's not much depth of the game and replay value. The gameplay is kinda boring for me. It's just not my taste.

Free now!!! Great game IMO. Hope they add sharing soon for user created levels. That would greatly expand the game's potential value.
