Game Description
Defend the cats as they produce enough energy to escape the Earth. Switch players to produce game winning energy, ammo for your canons and health to keep you going. All while aliens, terrorists and space junk threaten your existence.

How does your game tie into the theme?
A space elevator is about the biggest tower we could think of. It's also kind of a tower defence game.

I love cats, fun concept. Feels like a good game to also break out into multiplayer co-op with a spike in difficulty of course. 

Can we please keep the cats though, I don't want them to leave.

I did have a bug where the ammo wasn't refilling if I was controlling the mech,

Very fun game and unique idea! Also love the cute cats!
I would have liked to change character while in the factory and to be able to restart the minigame if I fail the first spin.
Overall a great experience!

Developer

Thanks! I kinda kept you locked into the minigame win or lose to make it a strategic choice as the game quickly gets more hectic you need to choose whether you have the time to start production or defend.


Thanks for playing!

super cute artstyle, really unique concept, and well executed too! i had a lot of fun figuring out how to load things up onto the ship, and the resource management wasn't too overwhelming or overly complicated. the skillchecks were a nice touch as well, luckily i play a ton of dead by daylight so hitting those were a piece of cake for me LOL. overall a very fun entry!

Thank you! I've been playing a lot of Dredge so really wanted to use a QTE dial thing in this game 😅

Thanks for playing!

My favourite so far. Sadly i shattered the hopes and dreams of the cats because of skill issues :D and tanks ran over everything (also because i couldnt change characters while playing the timed minigame because tab also rotates the focus between buttons so i was somehow forced to win 3 in a row before being able to close the item selection screen. luckily key bindings are changeable, but tab as  default is not ideal)

Developer

Thanks for the kind words. I kinda kept you locked into the minigame to make it a strategic choice as the game quickly gets more hectic you need to choose whether you have the time to start production or defend.

I also wasn't 100% happy with the key bindings, but also didn't seem like a natural set that everyone would like.

Thank you for playing!

I love the cats sprites, and the theme is unique and, well, on theme. The cat in the gun control room doing that thing with its fingers was a nice touch. I had the hardest time timing the spinning ring thingy!

Developer

Thank you! The cat artist will be super pleased to hear! Sorry the QTE was a little difficult, that's all on me 😅 I guess when you've done it a few hundred times to test it gets a bit too easy

Developer

Thank

I really enjoyed playing this! I love the style and simplicity of the controls, although I found the turret moved a little too fast. I wish I had realized the satellites were bad news - I guess they're space junk? Anyway, with a little bit more tutorialization this could really be something!

Developer

Thank you! Once upon a time the turret was twice as fast 😅

Totally agree on making things a bit more clearer, sadly time wasn't on my side and just wanted to make sure it played ok more.

Thank you playing!

This was really fun!  Maybe default the volume at 50% since it was a bit loud.  Also it would be helpful to show some kind of tooltip when you switch to the cat on the surface to indicate that you need to press space to interact - took me a while to figure that out.

Developer

Sorry for deafening you! Will definitely keep that in mind next time. There was a note at the beginning and in the description for interaction but yeah a bit more tutorial would've been handled if there was more time. Thanks for playing
