Fly a cat with paw-mounted rotors, collect catnip and dodge pterodactyls. Catcopter is Paweł’s deliberately silly multiplayer browser game, with free-for-all, team and racing modes.

The experienced developer reused graphics and networking techniques from flat.social, then spent about a week iterating. He credits Claude Opus 5.5 for objects, rigging and motion, Tripo3D for some assets, and Fable for optimization. The server uses Node.js, WebSockets and Rapier physics.

Players report enjoyable sessions, including on phones, but others encountered Firefox loading failures, heavy CPU use and input lag.
