Nice music, but jerky scrolling and impossible to know how much "power" you need for the pixel perfect high jump (press and hold down) to get over obstacles and platforms.

Good cat game (jumping system is absolutely realistc (down to get impulse as cats do)), but also very hard, so you MUST to learn the map game to progress in the gamein order to avoid mortal traps, and never forget to walk slow and careful as a cat, afterwards you'll really enjoy it.

Poor kitten has been sucked into purgatory, when he has to make his way to heaven! Otherwise he will wind up in hell.
Played as a kid, couldn't even pass the first screen. Today I made a progress, advanced to the second key! Wee!
Totally unplayable game, with horrible controles, annoying music, and well, decent grahics. And our character is a cat which is cool.

Game's concept is quite interesting. You guide a cat through a land which reminds me Dizzy's worlds. Everything seems to be fine but the way the main character is animated is both wrong and right. It looks like different frames were done by different graphic artists. On one hand we have a nice jump but swimming is just horrible. The same can be said about enemies. One of them are animated just fine while others look rather amusing than scary. The game itself is rather average. You need to learn each level by heart to know what to do if you don't want to get killed. The most important is precision in taking a leap because sometimes too high or too low might be deadly.

Something about this game I remember liking.
Something about the graphics and the gameplay,
I recall the way you control the Cat being unique compared
to other platformers of the time.

Last time I tried to install WinUAE I remember it being a bitch to...
So, unless there's been a revolution in the ease to play old Amiga
games on a PC through emulation, I don't think I'll be playing such games
again any time soon...

I couldn't get this one running first, then after days and months when it did, I simply hated the game.

Although I was attracted by its graphics, I gave up playing after few minutes. The game is pure crap. Its main problem isn't neither the bad concept, nor the lack of originality (although both is the reality), but the totally shitty controls, that makes it really pain to play. Never more!

This game is shite. After the novelty wears down (ten minutes) you realize that it is just another subpar platformer.

Another example of the crap that can be unearthed in the great litter tray of Amiga games.

I played this game for the first time a few days ago. I was attracted by the graphics, but when I played the game, this faded to the background. It played awful. After 10 minutes I stopped out of frustration, because I couldn't get the cat to do what I wanted him to do, but maybe that tells us also a little bit of my capabilities...

Graphics: 8/10
Sound: 7/10
Playability: 4/10
