Black Cat Adventures v1

Black Cat Adventures is a 2d casual platformer created in Unreal. Explore the levels, capture the creatures with magic, eat vegetables for health, and pick up hats and potions to gain magic energy. Portals transfer you between levels. 160 randomly generated levels are available.

The idea for this project is to bring to life a retro game concept for adults and kids in a casual format, with no pressure. No online connectedness, or chat. Just a simple and fun game, with simple play, and easy controls.

Once the game base is complete, we can build on that, and add puzzle features, which will allow us to build educational games for math and reading practice for a variety of skill levels.

History: This is a game I started for a Game Jam (https://itch.io/jam/week-of-whitworth). Unfortunately, I was really sick and wasn’t able to complete enough to have something to submit in the competition’s time frame. My family and I decided to work on it together and finish it on our own. (Started August 2019)

Dec 2019 Update: We are reaching the finish line. In polish mode. The beta release is scheduled for Jan 1st, 2020.

Jan 2020 Update: Commercial release on Itch.io is roughly scheduled for Feb 15th. You can follow our Indie Studio Page at https://elsandkls.itch.io/ and receive notifications from Itch.IO when the game is released.

Feb 2020 Plan: After a brief release on Itch.IO. We received some positive feedback and reviewed the recommended improvements. We decided to postpone the release on Steam, and republish on Itch.IO after making a few changes.

Mar 2020 Update: We continue to make changes to the game fine-tuning certain features. We expect to publish it in Itch.io again in April. — WHO declares a global pandemic, and Ohio goes into Shelter in Place. Prerelease testing (beta) ended.
