How it feels
A tense and punishing precision platformer where you control a cute cat navigating precarious heights with nerve-wracking leaps and physics-based movement.

What players say
Players praise the ragdoll cat physics but nearly all hit a difficulty wall in chapter 2 after a long checkpoint-free stretch. Some find it harder than Stretcher Men or Hans Pogo Stick, and many quit there even on casual mode.
