BOTD working fine, first issue for me was getting controls to work as default controls were different from what is stated in instructions (Z and X or something for jump/meow/interact). In the main menu, go to "options" bottom right then "def controls" to set your controls.
Found some of the puzzles not very intuitive - spoilers/solutions ahead. For the clouds from chimneys, double meows seemed to work for me. You need two clouds and good timing at the double chimneys. When you're battling the crow, double meows seemed to work again for me, and it seems like you need him to swoop through multiple bunches of leaves to turn them all black. Then when the crow is standing over you, I believe you need to swing towards the branch and then meow for the crow to peck the branch and drop you.
BOTD was awarded after all the credits for me.
