Note written 2026-09-19; the live figures above take precedence over any numbers in it.

A 2023 pixel-art action platformer blending arcade platforming with beat-em-up mechanics and Donkey Kong Country vibes.

Super Catboy has quietly accumulated solid lifetime revenue on a modest player base, with strong artwork and positive sentiment (77% positive) offsetting consistent complaints about control responsiveness. The title shows healthy residual earnings with minimal promotional spend, suggesting a sustainable catalog game. For a small publisher or revival-focused studio, this represents a low-risk acquisition target with clear community feedback for a polish pass; for a larger firm, the upside is modest without new content or a franchise angle. Most realistic play: acquisition.

• Risk: Core gameplay complaint centers on character movement and handling, a fundamental redesign risk if serious revision is attempted.
• Risk: Currently dormant: zero active players, no discount activity for ~2.5 years, and developer silent for nearly 24 months; revival would require external investment and marketing push.
• Risk: Publisher (Assemble Entertainment) shows fading studio status with only one title; institutional support for updates or ports is uncertain.
