Chat seems to cause Longcat - er, I mean, Jumpcat to lag. I missed several jumps because the game stuttered when someone posted a long comment in chat.

you get stuck between impossible jumps too much...stay on ground and get flattened by meatball...jump and get missile in face

a simple concept, nice retro graphics, relatively straightforward to get the hard badge, just keep practicing. if you can get all of the jumps up through eight after the first meatball thing rolls past, then you'll get the hard badge (unless you've got some wicked bad luck after that) just running along seems to do some good as well once the missiles are being fired. i don't know if there is some sort of score attached to them, but it seemed like my score was jumping up quickly even though i wasn't going over any obstacles.

These Buried Treasure games really aren't very fun. Here's my review.
Audio: 3/5 Song was okay, didn't add much to the experience. At least you gave me the option to turn it off.
Visuals: 3/5 Nothing special. It's clear you put some work into them, but they're very simple and not too attractive.
Concept: 2/5 Avoid obstacles. Bland and generic.
Gameplay: 2/5 It starts out alright, but falls off pretty fast. There are some situations, usually involving the rockets or when the bolder speeds past you, that really don't seem possible to escape. The fact that you lose your score "chain" when you get hit makes it almost worth dying and starting over, which is a recipe for frustration. You implemented a feature where your cat flashes when hit, but contrary to common game design practice, this does not indicate invulnerability. This makes it very easy for mistakes to snowball- another recipe for frustration.
Overall: 2/5

While I will admit this is not a giant stinking buried turd like soe of these other "buried treasure" games, the controll scheme is so horrendous and unintuitive that it wouldn't have passed muster back in the atari days when games were expected to have a rotten controll scheme. When making a game don't think "Can I make a cat jump up and down" think "Will my players have fun and not get aggravated because they got caught in an impossible jump between a missile and a moving helicopter that decided to stick to the ground." 2/5 Note to Kong staff, please lookup the meaning of "overlooked" an overlooked game is a game that no one played because it got released the same week as the latest defender/protector, a game that got a shit rating because no one liked it is not overlooked, it just sucks.

Its a simple game, but that only makes the fact that I can't stop playing even more impressive. I'm so glad Kongregate is having this event.

You guys need to stop complaining how hard the challenges are. They are easy! The games aren't terrible, they're mediocre, but how hard do you think it would be to have a great game come out everyday?

Way too luck based. This game doesn't really deserve a hard achievement because that only causes it to be played more.

I'd rank this 3rd out of the buried treasure games, it's fun, but it has one major problem, in my opinion: The horizontal movement.
The cat moves slowly when you try to go forwards, which can be annoying, but it's not slow enough to be much of a problem. Now, when you try to move backwards on the other hand, the cat moves incredibly slow, which makes trying to get out of the way of bombs, or give yourself that crucial piece of a second to charge your jump a little more a lot harder, and thus adding artificial difficulty, which is the bad. If you want to make the game harder, make the bombs track you later on, or have the helicopters shoot at you, don't make it so the cat moves slower than a cat on crutches. 3/5

no noticeable is right hedonicwill but theres an unnoticable glitch when having 1 life and getting hit by 3 objects. your score goes haiwire and it makes a collasal score just like it did to me D:

I think the main requirement for being included in the Buried Treasure Week challenges is that the game must be terrible. 1/5
