Fight off the Void invasion by guiding cats with your rifle's laser sight in this unique action roguelite!

Your upgrades carry over between retries so if you're having trouble, keep trying!

This game is intended to be played with a mouse or trackpad.

Gameplay

Efficiently eliminate foes by guiding cats to attack with your rifle's laser sight, then blasting enemies when they're open! Juggle on-the-fly strategy and execution in this unique blend of puzzle and action.

Between levels, visit the upgrade shop to decide on how to spend your hard-earned cash. Should you improve rifle reloading speed to keep up with the cats' ferocity, or increase the jump force of your cats so they can dominate even more of the space? Test out different builds and see how far you can make it!

Dispatching enemies nets you Super Meter. Build up enough and you can turn the tides! Spending half of it gives you a small heal, a quick reprieve from the pressure. But if you can built up a full bar and unleash your Level 2 Super, you get an even bigger reward! How will you manage this resource to fit your playstyle? Risk and reward...

A combo system rewards consistent sharpshooters with a hefty bonus if you manage to full combo the entire level! Bonuses for perfect accuracy and full combos scale with cash earned!

This game is built for score attack! How far into Dullcat City can you make it? See how your marksmanship skills stack up against others on the LootLocker Leaderboards!

Tips

• Eliminate targets efficiently by constantly moving or aiming with a single cat at a time, then go to position or aim with another cat as the first cat is flying through the air. Shoot vulnerable targets with your rifle to keep your combo from running out and/or to keep your eliminations per minute high.

• Make cats jump by moving the laser close enough to them (the cat should be inside the inner circle around the laser sight), and keeping the laser close (the cat should stay within the outer circle) for the duration of its pounce preparation phase.
• Cats will jump towards where the laser is at the instant they jump.
• The bigger circle surrounding the laser sight indicates the range at which cats will follow your laser.
• The smaller circle surrounding the laser sight indicates the range where cats will start to pounce.
• Move cats to where you want them by touching them with the perimeter of your laser and moving along with them.
• Void Cats have much more erratic jumping properties than Dullcat City cats.
