About High Cats
Join the high cats on an epic mission to get as high as possible by eating catnip and then trying to catch a can of tuna to fill their insatiable appetite.
High Cats includes full gamepad support for up to four players who will play as the high cats. They will run, jump, get high on catnip and meow at each other while trying to catch the ever so fast, but so appetizing can of tuna before it can escape. Master the fast-paced gameplay mechanic of bashing out correct button sequences that lets you eat and share the catnip, failing that will allow the can of tuna to escape. All cats love catnip. All cats love tuna. Don’t let the can of tuna disappear into its mysterious portal and then leave the high cats famished.
Getting high will give your cat boost, so there is no time to blink when your cat has the catnip, eat quickly by completing a random generated sequence of buttons to get high and pass the catnip to the next player, if you are too slow the other cats will start getting snappy. Meow at each other while running full speed through twenty-seven unique levels in the beautiful and sunny Feline Forest, the dark streets of Cat City, and the ominous houses of the Siberian Suburbs. Each new area has a new feature to overcome. Strategize with your friends to be able to catch the can of tuna on each level. Each cat has their own unique personality and together they share only nine lives.

High Cats is a 2D retro pixel competitive co-op platformer that's been slapped together with the godawful GameMaker Studio video game construction kit from Yoyogames. You control a bunch of cats and must race each other through platformer levels. There's a few issues here, some of them stemming from the godawful GameMaker Studio, and others just terrible design flaws. The developer was unable to work out how to make the game work online so it's multiplayer only, that's already a problem. The game features obsolete retro pixel "art" as a substitute for contemporary PC graphics. It's unclear if this is due to lack of budget or talent, regardless, the overall visual quality of the game is extremely low as a result. Resolution and controls are locked, so there's no way to improve the very poor visual quality or the control scheme. PC gamers will of course be insulted by the console peasant childrens toy controller prompts. These flaws push this game far below minimum acceptable standards for PC. GameMaker Studio is a very poor quality game construction kit, and unsurprisingly results in products that have little to no value as games, especially when compared to the work of prof…2 found this helpful

I found high cats a rather fun little game to play. Its a local multiplayer based game for up to 4 players, but can be played solo as well. The game requires you to catch a tin of tuna that is runnig away from you. You must catch and eat the tuna before it escapes the level. Why are you chasing the tuna? You are high after eating cat nip. Each level consists of different obstacles you must avoid whilst chasing down the tuna. This progressively gets harder the further you advance through the levels. You have the ability to give yourself a quick boost in order to catch the tuna and this is done by eating more cat nip. This is done by quickly pressing the series of buttons presented to you and can be quite tricky whilst chasing the tuna at the same time. I can safely say it gives a little thrill to the chase. You have to be quick in pressing the buttons to eat your cat nip as not only does it give you your boost quicker, but only one player at a time can eat it, resulting in your friends waiting for you to pass it on! The game does state that you must have a controller to play so I am not disappointed in this as I already knew beforehand, but it may be a suggestion to the develope…2 found this helpful
High cats is a very fun local multiplayer game that is ideal to play with family and friends. The game requires a controller to play and your aim is to get high by eating cat nip and catching a can of tuna, the game features random burtton combinations you must press in time in order to pass the cat nip onto the other players. This game was very fun and would be a great game to play with the family.1 found this helpful
The game is definitely worth picking up for group play and I would say is just as fun when playing alone. the controls set for keyboard isn't really good and playing with controller is way better .
Cute racing/running game featuring cats. Even tho this is more like local co-op game, you can still play it alone.
