Nikolas - about beating the boss:

Spoiler

You can damage him when he's about to do the big laser move (star->mouth) and enemy spawning move. And when he does the eyball thing, you can hit that eyeball with a star. If you set the teddy on fire and make the boss swallow it when he's doing his laser move, he'll get extra damage.

How do you beat the boss in 3-1?

Spoiler

When he opens up his tummy area (the missiles fire out) you have to throw a star in. I'm guessing but I think you have to repeat it about 5-10 times.

Geez, I'm still only at 40%. You people are good.

Kitty is quite possibly the hardest game I've played!!

WHY IS IT SO HARD MOMMY!?!?

Because you touch yourself at night.

I began playing on sunday and finished it yesterday in the the late hours past midnight. Having finally found the hints sign telling where the last secret level was, I couldn't go to bed until I got the 100% score. Great job as always.

The wind sequence might have been just a little bit too difficult however. Once I finished it my fingers were all cramped and the CTRL key started to function half of the time. I think I'll give this key a rest for the next couple of weeks.

I can't believe you re-used one of the tricks you used in A Game with a Kitty to hide a big diamond.

Spoiler

Cleverly hiding a door in the background, you did that to hide a bag of money in one of the last level of AGwaK, and used that trick again in this game.

Finding that bag of money left me stumped for hours in AGwaK, and I had told myself to never fall for the same trick again, yet you re-used that trick and I was completly stumped again.Ã,Â

One last thing I liked was the fact big diamonds and secret levels only required thinking, observation and a bit of reflexes to be found. There are some similar games where, because these are only optionnal and don't affect the normal play, the devellopers push it to the limit with an awful amount of superhuman reflexes required just to get these. In this game, everytime I encountered such situation where it seemed an awful amount of skill were required, thinking a bit about the problem revealed a solution that was simplier than what I first had in mind.

I would tell you that I can't wait for your next platformer if you make an another one, if it wasn't for the fact the adventure gamer in me is shouting to play another adventure game as awesome as Cedric and the Revolution.

BlueSkirt: The good, old hidden door secret never gets old!

Yeah, there's a good chance the wind sequence is a little on the hard side. I gotta be more careful with my levels!

[lgm]: I think DA is even harder than Kitty was! At least the last bunch of levels.

buloght: Go, you! You can do it!

Thanks for playing my game!

Bernie:

Last hint I promise.

I've finished the game many times, and I'm at 90%, for which I'm ok.

I've found the secret level, and beaten the red thingy... (quite tough), but what do I do with that earie ghost type who keeps jumping up and doesn't get any damage anyways...

Spoiler

I can jump in his head, then hit him with the stars and he gets a little bigger, jump again and he gets small again. If he gets too small he starts jumping up and down really fast, but again stars work...

It is a marvelous game, since I'm still hooked up with it.!

Thank you!

Ghost boss hint:

Spoiler

Shoot him with stars until he sort-of explodes and shrinks. Do this 4 times and you're done!
