How it feels

A minimalist, atmospheric puzzle-platformer where the feel is of guiding a small cat through silent, shadowy labyrinths by rotating the world, blending calm exploration with quiet tension.

What players say

Players praise the gravity-flipping mechanic where you rotate the world, not the cat. The game is short, about 2-5 hours, and many say the $20 price is too steep. Reviews are split on difficulty, some call it hard while others find it fair. A recurring disappointment is that Naught Reawakening, the sequel, was removed from Steam.
