MagiCat (2017)
MagiCat has a lot of company within the platformers' genre. It may not be an outstanding masterpiece but it does have elements going for it, such as its lifespan, a visually attractive style and a good level of challenge. It doesn't open the gates of immortality, though, as it can end up feeling too repetitive and is just not as groundbreaking as its biggest influences but that does not mean fans of platform games should not give it a chance.
It’s definitely a solid platformer with a lot of replay value, and at a cost that is very compelling. It’s also hard and it takes more time to figure the ins and outs than it really should. For players who love platformers and don’t want a game to hold their hands, look no further. For those who want a simple, kid-friendly experience, this probably won’t do it.
If you love 2D platformers then MagiCat is definitely one that you don't want to miss. Its tight gameplay and charming world make it one of the most enjoyable indie experiences on the Switch.

I haven't finished the game yet but I want to say that I'm probably not going to finish it. I mean the game is cute and it's got some good animations like the hovering but the platforming is just ok. I felt like with the lack of changes from each level, it just became somewhat repetitive.

Here's the run down it's a platforming/puzzle game with a cat the levels have unique designs with unique bosses the controls are somewhat decent the movement when jumping sometimes can be short from what you thought it would be. All in all if your looking for a pretty good and fun platforming game without looking to brake the bank this is for you
