Leap a black cat from roof to roof under the full moon, grab fish and climb as high as you can in this free endless jumper in your browser.
About Rooftop Cat
Rooftop Cat is a night-time endless climber. A little black cat stands on the rooftops of a sleeping city while the roofs keep sliding down the screen. Run left and right, time your jumps and hop from roof to roof before the one under your paws disappears off the bottom.
Every new roof you land on is worth 10 points, and red fish that pop up on the roofs above give 50 more. One jump is strong enough to clear two rooftops at once, so picking the right landing spot matters, and the rooftops scroll faster the higher your score climbs. Your best score is saved, so there is always a record to beat.

How to play
Move the cat left and right and jump onto the rooftops above you. Each new roof you land on scores 10 points and each fish scores 50. The roofs keep moving down and speed up as your score grows. The game ends when the cat falls off the bottom of the screen.

Tips
- A full jump reaches two roofs up, so aim for the higher one when it is within reach.
- Stay near the top half of the screen to keep time to react when the roofs speed up.
- Only go for a fish when it sits on a roof you can safely land on.
- You can still jump once after walking off the edge of a roof, which can save a bad step.
