About the Game

WELCOME TO THE WEBCAM Based Game ... NOW WITH ONLINE FIGHTING

No VR headset. No controllers. Just you and a webcam. 

Catch These Hands is an Experimental Physics Sandbox that turns your body into the game engine. Inspired by the creative freedom of games like Garry's Mod and Besiege, we are ditching the traditional "linear game" structure to bring you a collection of motion-controlled experiments.

Using advanced MediaPipe AI, we track your hands, head, and torso in real-time with zero perceived lag. If you can move it in real life, you can move it in the game.

Note: Place Webcam on top of Monitor for best experience :)

THE CURRENT Modes - That Get Updated Frequently!

  • Liquid Metal Enemies: Fight waves of liquid like enemies and react dynamically to your strikes.

  • Fitness That Fights Back: Because every punch is real, your workout is real. Includes an integrated calorie estimator.

02: THE Upper Body RIG

Turn your webcam into a poor man's motion capture suit.

  • Full Body Proxy: Control a 3D character with your head rotation, hand position, and torso bending.

  • Test it out in Avatar Mode: Hit a ragdoll !

  • Online PVP Mode: Fight Random Strangers Online! [No video data transmitted or collected , for privacy :) ]
