[edit] Gameplay
The game is reminiscent of NES games, and uses 16 color graphics; music and sound effects add to the atmosphere.
The aim in the game is to help a cat and a princess escape a castle they’ve been thrown to, avoiding various dangers through cooperation and combination of their differing skills.
[edit] Setup
The game in its PyWeek archive has screen resolution set to 1280x800. It can be changed in the gamelib/graph.py file. The resolution should be a multiple of 320x200; on some CRT monitors 320x200 may be the best one, unless you set the refresh rates up properly for ones like 640x400 in your X configuration.
