About the Game

Super Catboy is an action-packed platformer created in a high-bit pixel art style, combining the best elements of the golden 16-bit platformer era of the 90s with some ‘pawsome’ new mechanics! And let’s not forget; there’s plenty of CAT CONTENT!

Meet Super Catboy, your not so average tomcat! Together with his crazy sidekick, Weapongirl, he leaves nothing but chaos in his wake while trying to thwart the shady plans of his evil creator. Armed to the whiskers and equipped with the latest dashing sneaker technology, he must run, jump, dash, climb, shoot and fight his way through hordes of anthropomorphic dog soldiers. If you love the 80s and 90s, 16-bit platforming, catchy tunes, ‘furmidable’ boss fights, cats and hate dogs, (just kidding we love them) then you’re in for a treat.

  • Super Catboy combines the authentic style and features we came to love in the 16-bit pixel platformer era, created with high-bit pixel art aesthetics

  • Old-school style meets new school features! Super Catboy combines old-school platforming with exciting new mechanics of the run’n’gun and beat em-up genres

  • Hone your platforming skills while taking on the hench-dogs of an evil scientist and sabotage his plans to take over the world – with ‘cattitude’ of course

  • Enjoy a huge ‘repawtoire’ of different moves and master a deadly arsenal of weapons and melee combos

  • Challenging motor bike and mine cart chases await

  • A fun and action-packed story with loveable characters and challenging bosses at every turn

  • Unravel the story’s yarn via detailed pixel art cutscenes and diverse levels, such as snow-capped mountain ranges, mystical forests and derelict factories
