So you think you know how to manage a cat on a pogo-stick? Well, here you go. Prove it. The sky is blue, the grass is green and Pogocat is prepared for a wholesome day of jumping. Hop, flip, spring, boing, and skip with her as far as possible across the grassy mountain plains. Pleasant? Perhaps, but probably not. After all, it's a cat on a pogo-stick. There will be falls, and there will be tears. Patience is essential on Pogocat's journey. Features: - An endless, gruelling journey with you, a pogo stick and a persistent hopping cat. - High-difficulty, physically-simulated pogo motion-dynamics. - Feline outfits to make the journey more colourful (yes, Pogocat actually enjoys dress-ups) - Ad removal for distraction-free jumping. - A feline friendship worth working for. Remember that feeling that you once had where one day you'd come across a cat on a pogo-stick? The day has come, and it's a beautiful one at that. Sound design & music by Dom Willmott.
