Cat Nap
Do you like cats? Do you like making them cozy? If so CatNap is the game for you!
CatNap is a cozy game about cat-sitting to make ends meet as a broke college student. Pet some cats, give them treats, buy some cat toys and hopefully at the end of the month you'll have enough money to make rent!

I enjoyed this one! I like the idea of trying to figure out each cats favorite spot for the day with limited options (and also I'm terrified of letting them end the day on the computer!!).
The music was a great vibe too! I enjoyed it until I ran into the bug with the cat bars filling up and not going to sleep a few times. Also noticed a floating point error on the UI for money (2.9000000001, y'know xD) which might be the cause of the bars filling and the day not progressing too? Should just be able to round the float when you set it on the GUI I think!
When I read the description, I felt like this was a game made from experience and the challenge of the game felt appropriate for how difficult the concept sounds in reality! Kudos to you both!
Thanks for playing!
Yeah there are a few gremlins I need to squash with the cat’s bars (I think something is going wrong in the instancing of the node but not 100% sure yet!) and great note on the floating point!! Thanks again!
I think this game is so cute but there is a bug where even though the cat's bar is full the day wont end and it would count as a fail, idk if this is just me, i havent played through the whole game yet. I think this could be expanded upon though.
Thanks for playing! I did run into that bug once or twice while testing but thought I squashed it! I’ll have to take another look :)
Thanks again for playing!
The game is very cute and adorable. I loved the cat designs. Balancing the care of numerous cats while studying is truly challenging! 😹❤️
Thanks for playing! I hoped you’d enjoy the cat theme :) Also there’s a random chance some of the cats have familiar names for you :) Hope you have a wonderful Christmas!
This is very nice and very cute, I love the pallete you've chosen. Game is mroe stressful than I thought it would be but I guess that is the harsh reality of being a student cat sitter!
Thanks for playing! And definitely ended up being a bit more stressful than the cutesy aesthetic may suggest :) I had a heck of a time trying to balance the game as it was either way too easy and the player would end up with hundreds of thousands of dollars or it was impossible to win! XD I ended up just simplifying the pay logic and it made it challenging but doable!
Happy holidays!
