Dec. 15, 2011 - PRLog -- Cat Dash on iOS offers a wealth of features, gameplay options and customizability. It takes the standard 2d side scrolling runner, then adds depth with the 3rd dimension, health and power-ups, multiple characters which play completely differently and the ability to play any way you want with multiple modes, control schemes, display orientations and gameplay styles.

Easy to play, while having enough gameplay depth to take weeks to perfectly master. Simple enough for a 3 year old while still being challenging enough for a 30 year old.

Characters:
Dash : He's your standard cat with a standard jump. He's the smallest cat, making him the easiest at avoiding obstacles. He can also grab an extra fish in his mouth at full health for an extra damage shield, which along with a lime hat power-up also serve as score multipliers - so avoiding danger will yield even higher scores.

Smash : Is morbidly obese, making it harder to avoid obstacles. He's so fat his paws don't even quite reach the ground and he has to writhe in the direction he wants to go. He also can't jump, but he can sure eat! His main ability sucks up all objects in front of him to then be spit back out at anything in his way. All of his power-ups play on his size and his sense of hunger.

Flash : Is super agile and mildly fragile. Her jump is low energy but she takes double damage from hitting anything. Her jump also works in 2 parts; the take-off and the stomp down. Stomping down on objects initiates a chainjump allowing her to keep jumping on objects and receiving a stacking score for as long as she can keep stomping down on objects.

Features:
3 Characters:  Unique gameplay and abilities for each
3 Sets of 4 Power-ups:  Different sets of power-ups for each cat.
Health and Energy:  Timing your ability usage requires strategy.
3 Modes:  2 Minute quick play, challenging normal mode and endless.
3 Control Types:  Swipe Tilt or press. Play how you want.
Portrait and Landscape Views:  Play 2 handed for extra control or 1 handed for convenience.
5 Star Scoring System:  Attaining 5 stars requires true mastery.
Built-in Help Menus
Scoreboards
