  As one of the authors of that game, I can add the following information: On https://pdiefenbach.de/atari8bit.html#kitten you can find instructions, download two disks with roughly 50 levels to play, and also see ports to Java and HTML5. If you have created more levels you want to share with the world, you can contact me, and I'd be happy to further collect and publish them.

  To Peter D. - thanks for writing this game :) playing it gave me an idea to write my own game using Character Animation in BASIC - as I was too young too understand assembler at the time

  This game was written by me and my brother Alexander, and was published in Computronic, Tronic Verlag, issue 09-10/1986 for typing it in. It's now also available on my home page at http://www.pdiefenbach.de/atari8bit.html, together with 20 levels created by my brother Alexander and 30 levels by Andreas Koch. If you too have levels you are willing to share and public, I'd be glad to add them to my homepage. -Peter Diefenbach

  Well, if the Happy Trash Software from the game Wille and this Happy Trash Software are the same (which is my guess), then the author of this game is Alexander Diefenbach. Kitten originally appeared in the 80`s as a type-in listing at Tronic-Verlag (Computronic or Homecomputer magazine) with two or three levels. In the 90`s I used the editor to create 30 new levels, which were released in KE-Soft`s magazine ZONG. In the meanwhile single-file versions of this game (with an unknown number of included levels) have appeared at Homesoft and various polish and czech sites... -Andreas Koch.
