                  Frequently Asked Questions About Kats Trigger

                  A few useful distinctions before you start.

                  Kats Trigger is a story-driven, hyper-speed 2D side-scrolling action platformer combining wire grappling, blade combat, firearms, and slice-of-life visual novel interludes.

                  Developer GIX chose to fund an original custom soundtrack through Early Access sales rather than include royalty-free audio tracks, leaving current builds focused on ambient sound effects.

                  Pressing the Escape key during dialogue sequences skips active cutscenes and sends you directly to the next gameplay section.

                  Firing the wire grapple at any wall or enemy resets your character movement state and immediately restores jumping after an air stomp.
