Cat Ninja is a precision platformer dressed in adorable clothing. You're a cat. You're a ninja. The levels are filled with spikes, lasers, saw blades, and bouncing hazards that kill you instantly and without apology. The game doesn't explain itself — it presents a room, you die a few times figuring out the pattern, and then you nail it clean. That moment of clean execution is exactly as satisfying as it sounds.
The levels are short by design — each is a self-contained puzzle with a single solution path. Wall jumping and mid-air direction changes are core tools, not tricks. The difficulty curve is honest: early stages teach mechanics one at a time, later stages combine everything simultaneously and let you work it out. No hand-holding, no checkpoints within rooms. Just the obstacle and you.
Arrow keys or WASD to move; Up or W to jump, press again to wall-jump. The controls are tight enough that a failed run is always a skill issue, never a control issue — which is exactly the kind of fairness precision platformers need.
