Our take on 猫肉「Cat Meat」
The bounce point is the ninth-life limit. Players who rely on unlimited retries will hit the game's defining constraint when the available lives run out, rather than continuing through the same challenge without that restriction.
What is 猫肉「Cat Meat」?
Meteor strikes are falling while loved ones remain at home alone.
Players race back to them through retro platforming action, avoiding the danger along the way. Completing the game is limited to nine lives, making the life count part of the central challenge. The presentation uses deceptively cute 16-bit pixel art and includes music by Michael “Music Mike” Ripka.
