“Selfie” is the name of my Russian Blue cat. She’s talkative, sensitive, and a little dramatic… but absolutely lovable. I imagined going on an adventure with her, since she’s never set a paw outside — and that’s how this game was born. With just a single tap, you can give your cat an unforgettable adventure too! This is a super simple, one-touch arcade game with a single charming map that anyone can enjoy. Explore maps with unique themes, defeat playful monsters, and conquer 100 stages of exciting challenges. Your journey with this little cat is filled with charm, imagination, and a sprinkle of mischief. And with a cat by your side, your day just might get a little brighter.
AFTERARC

Sweep the crescent paddle, catch the return, and build something different every run. Mix your powers, outsmart bosses with changing attacks, and adapt to portals, lift pads, and timed hazards. Steer a crescent paddle with a swipe, tap to launch, and use precision and reflexes to catch each returning ball at the angle you want. Read each bounce in an orbital arena, break crystal targets, then choose upgrades that change the route, rhythm, and risk. • AIM EACH RETURN — Catch near the center for a straighter shot; catch near the edge to bend it. • BUILD COMBOS — Draft upgrades that widen the paddle, add balls, slow the action, or strengthen Blast. Stack choices into a build that changes how you play. • FIRE BLAST — When charged, double-tap the arena to burst targets near the ball. • READ THE ROOM — Banks, portals, lift pads, moving formations, rotating tables, and inner paddles alter the next path. • OUTPLAY THE BOSSES — Spot the weak point, time your return, and adapt when the attacks change. The Journal records discoveries and opens focused practice. Replay a run code with a different build, play the daily run, or unlock challenge rules after your first wave-10 clear. Standard and Relaxed modes let you set the pace. The core game works offline. After wave 10, the run can continue through endless waves. Once per run, one optional rewarded recovery lets you choose Continue or, when available, Rewind; the one-time Remove Ads purchase makes your chosen recovery ad-free. Music and effects have separate controls.
