HOW TO INSTALL/START PLAYING:
Check that your computer has something that runs Python and has the Pygame module. (Like Thonny or Visual Studio Code)
Click on the download link below, it should lead you to a Google Drive folder named 'Duakitty game'. Download the entire folder onto your computer.
https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1GzNICUghbvOrsZbHT0b6CbUs36XBlpV2?usp=sharing
Open the downloaded folder and run the file 'Duakitty.py' with something that can run pygames.
HOW TO PLAY:
Use the arrow keys to move and dodge Chaos-Cat's attacks.
Shoot a magic bullet by typing the letters or numbers that appear on Chaos-Cat's sun.
Eat appearing sugar cookies to get either a little bit of health, stronger bullets for a period of time or extra movement speed.
Restart game "BACKSPACE"
Volume up "L"
Volume down "K"
The last Cat alive wins. (And gets to control Duakitty's next actions in real life.)
STORY:
You are Peace-Cat who is endlessly fighting with Chaos-Cat over the steering wheel in the brain of Duakitty. Peace-Cat wishes to influence Duakitty to do things like: ask for cuddles, make funny faces and sleep on people's laps. Whereas Chaos-Cat only wishes Duakitty would push cups down from tables and scratch people who try to pet them.
Win against Chaos-Cat to protect world peace and ensure Duakitty takes the right course of action in the real world.
Theme
Understand the theme of duality quite well here.
It is a simple 1v1 game, which could be considered duality.
Two different characters, but nothing in the gameplay.
Story represents duality, but game not so much
Sorry but I cant run Python.
two opposites colliding? spot on duality
Enjoyment
Could not try game, as don't have Python installed in PC
Quite fun, game crashes when it ends. (Am using macOS). Also had to download pygame to play so it
Sorry, don't have python
I like the gameplay style. It is quite challenging. The enemy cat changes keys perhaps too quickly. Despite this the game works as a whole.
It was quite fun to shoot once I got a hang of the mechanics
Not really into typing games
sorz no Phyton
If you know the keyboard layout its pretty good but poor Eero doesn't know so it was too hard for him :(
responsive controls, gameplay is lackluster
Aesthetics
quite pretty
I liked the visual style but the first two repeating chords of David Bowie's "Let's Dance" got on the nerves quickly. Thankfully you had volume options.
Very nicely done!!
Sprites were nice, but the projectiles felt out of place.
Madis likes it
looks like a slideshow
Innovation
An interesting twist on the SHMUP genre.
The correct keys to enter was an interesting mechanic.
Typeracer
Very nice
cats are cool
Bonus
kitty
No bonus points this time. Had to use someone else's PC to open Python. Also, automatically stating how to play screen is not the best for people who are slow readers. It's better to have a "Play" button!
Kittens attached to balloons!
Got stuck on losing screen and the game crashed after pressing backspace on end screen :(
cats!
