Rollcats

ROLLCATS™!!!

Rollcats is a physics-based puzzle game designed for the OLPC XO Laptop. It was developed by Team Awesome Monkeys of the 2008 Physics Jam with contributions by many others.

Plot

All is well in the world of Rollandia until a monstrous shriek in the distance sends chills down the spines of its peaceful inhabitants. Shortly after, hundreds of Rollcats suddenly go missing without a trace. A lone Rollcat sets out on a journey to determine the cause of the vanishing Rollcats.

Gameplay

Rollcats is a physics-based puzzle game from a side-scroller point of view. In each level, The Hero must find and talk to the other rollcat. You control both The Hero and the other rollcat. A number of obstacles block the cats from one another. The goal is to have The Hero rescue and touch the missing rollcat. Every investigated or rescued rollcat will reveal a clue that brings The Hero closer and closer to the cause of the disappearances.
