About the Game

You were supposed to finish your track tonight.

Instead, you dozed off at your desk. Your PC is still running. Your DAW (Digital Audio Workstation) is still open. And somehow, impossibly, there's a tiny, bopping orange cat with green headphones strutting across your soundtrack like it owns the place.

Your actual cat? Pink. Giving you that unsettling evil grin from right next to your Piano.

The only way out of this fever dream is to make the Meowsic.

🎛️ NOT YOUR AVERAGE PLATFORMER

Meowsic throws out the rulebook. Platforms here don't sit around waiting for you, they're your audio loops, and you control where they go. Drag them, stack them, rearrange them to keep your cat moving forward. Every level is a song in progress, and you're composing it in real time.

🐱 ONE VERY UNUSUAL PROTAGONIST

Meet your orange cat, edgy, expressive, and physically questionable. This little guy can:

  • Bop and strut across your tracks

  • Stretch horizontally and vertically

  • Loop and spring through the air in ways that defy both gravity and feline biology

🎶 YOUR MUSIC IS THE STAGE

Audio loops double as your platforms. You're not just playing a level, you're arranging a track. Move the loops to build a path. Get your cat to the end. Feel like a musician and a gamer at the same time.

🐾 MEANWHILE, YOUR REAL CAT...

...is right there. Pawing at your keyboard. Threatening to ruin everything. Use both hands to pet it back to sleep before it swats your progress into oblivion. It's a whole separate minigame and it is exactly as chaotic as it sounds.

✨ Features

  • A one-of-a-kind hybrid of rhythm game and platformer, where you move the platforms, not just the character

  • A stretchy, springy, loop-jumping orange cat protagonist with personality to spare

  • Real-time audio loop manipulation that doubles as both puzzle and stage design

  • A cheeky, fully realized desktop setting, complete with a burning recycle bin on the main menu

  • A live pink cat distraction minigame that will test your multitasking skills

  • Hand-crafted 2D art and animation

  • An original soundtrack composed specifically for gameplay

  • Charming SFX that make every bop, jump, and pat feel just right

Developed by Scyte Studios Ltd A small, passionate indie team that put a cat in a DAW and somehow made it work.
