Gloomy Cat | You are in :Cat Games |
This is very addicting and fun little running adventure with spectacular graphics, featuring cute little gloomy cat with a sword. It might seem a bit hard to play at first, but soon after a few tryouts you will accommodate and master relatively simple controls. You control the cat on her adventure with the mission to get as far as possible. Collecting coins is what can earn you bonuses and rewards which might help you at the higher stages of the game. You can smash the boxes but must jump over the rocks, since there's no other way. Jump and double jump over the abyss and stones, while kill the enemies and other obstacles ahead. If you run into a rock or crate, your cat will simply disintegrate. One more thing - this cat starts off with only 1 life, so if you want 9 you must earn them first.

Game Overview
The storyline from the very beginning resembles to the old story "The sword in the stone", where a young boy named Arthur pulls the sword out of the stone. There was a special inscription on the sword's side saying that whoever pulls it out will become the next king of Britain. What we have here is a little gloomy cat eager for new adventures and discovering the rest of the world.

Game bonuses
There are several game elements and upgrades you can earn by time:
- The bomb - it will get rid of the green monsters that follow the cat (although you can just ignore them)
- The magic jump - you will jump much much farther than usual
- money upgrades - Money can get you other stuff, such as extra lives, a bomb, magic shield
- dissolvent - if you use this one, your trip becomes very easy since there won't be any obstacles, traps or enemies.
- Berserk - In this mode you have movement speed increased, shield protection and other stuff.
Pros
- Well-thought and addicting gameplay
- Great artwork and amazing SoundFX
- Simple controls
Cons
- You need to press resume button to restart level, instead of just pressing any key or spacebar.
- It takes a lot of time to start earning enough for the upgrades. The minimum is 500 coins which seems a lot. The game should start rewarding you much earlier.
- Giving you only 1 life at start is very discouraging for the novice players. Getting killed by the box in a first few seconds of the game might be the barrier that might reject many player.
- Some obstacles appear right after the jump so they're practically impossible to avoid, for example double stacked rocks.
- Lack of game instructions
