Balsam’s Island is a game combining Cat's love for illustration and comics with her knowledge of game creation. Each level begins/ends with a comic serving as a cut scene.
Help Balsam and his friends on their mission to save ocean animals.

The first level of Balsam's Island begins with a duck's cry for help. The islanders notice it is stuck in an oil spill and in need of rescue. Balsam springs into action and the player is able to help him swim out to retrieve the duck, followed by another comic of the duck being cleaned upon completion of the level.

Level 2 follows the rescue of a fish caught in some plastic rings. This time the player must retrieve items in order to build a transportation tank to get the fish to shore and cut him free.

The final level of Balsam's Island begins with a family of otters tangled in a net. Because there are three otters the player must find and recruit friends to help with the mission. They then must once again collect materials, this time to build extra boats for the other members of the rescue team. Balsam and his friends then sail out to the otters and help them escape in their final mission of the game.
