Rockin' Kats

Screenshots1 / 2

A blue cat character stands on gray ground in the center of a purple-tinted level. Two tall stone towers with cross-hatched patterns flank the sides, each topped with a small character figure. A white ball floats in the upper center. The HUD at the bottom displays a lives counter (02), a score display (0026), and a four-heart health bar. The background shows a repeating diagonal lightning bolt pattern against a vibrant purple sky.
