Frequently Asked Questions

The liquid cat mechanic allows your character to transform between solid and liquid states. In liquid form, you can flow through small gaps, climb walls by capillary action, and absorb into certain surfaces. In solid form, you can jump, push objects, and interact with the environment in more traditional ways. The game teaches you how to use these abilities through progressive level design.

The main story takes about 6-8 hours to complete for most players. However, completionists who want to find all the hidden collectibles, solve every optional puzzle, and unlock all achievements can expect to spend 10-12 hours with the game. The length can vary depending on how quickly you adapt to the liquid mechanics.

While the concept of a liquid cat is fictional, we did consult with physicists to make the liquid mechanics feel as plausible as possible within our game world. The story explores themes of transformation, identity, and the nature of reality through this fantastical premise.

We took inspiration from real scientific concepts like non-Newtonian fluids, phase transitions, and quantum superposition, though we took creative liberties to make the gameplay fun and engaging.
