About Catapult Shot
Catapult Shot is a physics aiming game. You pull back to set the angle and power of a catapult, release to launch, and try to hit the target across a windy battlefield. Wind, gravity and arc all factor into where the projectile lands. Misses teach you adjustments; hits reward calibrated patience.
What makes Catapult Shot more than a clone of Angry Birds is the wind. A still day is easy. A windy level demands you read the gust direction, adjust your angle to compensate, and pull back exactly the right amount. The reward for nailing a windy shot is the same dopamine hit as a long basketball shot — pure calibrated skill.
This Catapult Shot runs free in the browser with smooth touch and mouse drag controls. There is no sign-up, no installer and no microtransactions. Your best score per level is stored locally. It is one of the most satisfying short games on the site — a real "skill plus thinking" game in three taps.

— Strategy & tips
How to win
- Read the wind first. Then set the angle. Then set the power.
- Slightly overshoot in your first attempt. Overshoots teach you the wind more accurately than undershoots.
- Aim at the centre of the target, not its edge. Edge hits often slip off.
- On still days, the same shot repeats — drill it for free points.
- Reset rhythm after a miss. Frustration adds power error to the next shot.
