About the Game

You are a cat. With a gun. Like Animal Crossing but really stupid and physics based. 

CORE MECHANICS:

Physics Based Recoil Movement System - You have six physics thrusts on your body. Each foot, your gun, and (yes) your...rear propulsion. Each thrust can be triggered individually. Chain together all these physics thrusts to give you mastery over traversing your cozy island town.

A COZY YET DESTRUCTIBLE ISLAND TOWN

Welcome to the island. Relax or wreak havoc.

Objects shatter, slice, and break into pieces. Shoot, Smash & Burn the town. Collect the souls & money that things drop.

The town has its own ecosystem. Traffic runs. Shops are open. Neighbors go for walks. The day turns to night. NPCs have routines and requests. Complete missions for the locals, farm, earn money and souls, and spend them on upgrades that make your cat faster, louder, and harder to stop.

There are dozens of hidden secrets across the island to discover. 

PROGRESSION

Missions. Collect, deliver, reach, destroy, and equip your way through a layered quest chain. Nonlinear.

Unlocks. Guns, skins, accessories, items, and music tracks.

Upgrades. Kick power, fart thrust, fire rate, and more to help you traverse, destroy, and enrich.

Steam Achievements. For cats who need external validation.

LOCAL SPLIT SCREEN CO OP!

Bring a friend. Split screen support for two local players. More cats, more guns, twice the recoil. Work together to get rich and cause chaos!
