Kitten Kerfuffle

By Eric Johnson for Mark Oates

This is my entry for KrampusHack 2016. Please visit the official forum thread for more information.

Story

You assume the role of Nini, a mother cat who has unfortunately misplaced her kittens. You must find all ten of your kittens before sundown, or your kittens may perish in the cold weather overnight.

How to Play

Use the arrow keys to traverse the map, and use the Z key to let out a mighty meow to destroy adjacent objects and to call nearby kittens. Also, keep an eye on the text overhead; it tracks the distance between you and the nearest kitten. Finally, use the T key to toggle displaying kitten names (off by default).

How to Compile

The latest version of Allegro 5 is required to compile. Once installed, execute make to compile automagically, and then run ./kerfuffle to play the game.
