🐾 Alphacat: Alphabet Adventure (Early Prototype)

Welcome to the world of Alphacat!

Alphacat is a 2D platformer designed to be the perfect "first video game experience" for children. We are blending the fun of jumping, running, and exploring with the joy of learning the alphabet. It’s safe, fun, and designed with young players in mind.

🎮 Play the Prototype

This is an early work-in-progress version of our game. By playing this prototype, you can test two of our core gameplay styles:

1. Hide & Seek Mode: Test your observation skills! Explore the environment and find all the hidden items tucked away in the level.
2. Runner Fire Mode: A fast-paced challenge where our brave kitten must run and jump to escape the chasing dog!
