How it feels

A charming but initially frustrating journey where a helpless cat grows stronger through exploration and ability unlocks.

What players say

Players praise its creative metroidvania design and charming oddity, but warn that the deliberately janky movement and slow start (unable to jump for nearly an hour) can frustrate. The platforming is precision-heavy, compared to kaizo difficulty, while the bosses are repetitive with weird hitboxes. Many agree it rewards persistence.
