What do you get when you give a cat a super-powerful weapon and a jetpack? Chaos, it turns out. All of this and more can be enjoyed if you check out Super Astro Cat today.
Cats… from Outer Space!
Now available on Xbox consoles, Super Astro Cat is the wacky creation of developers and publishers Synnergy Circle Games.
In this auto-scrolling, retro-inspired, Contra-esque 2D shooter, you will control a cat who has fled their home planet, and must get used to life on a brand-new globe. The only issue is that their new home is full of beasties intent on taking these felines down.
Thank god you have a jetpack and a blaster to make short work of them with!
Across the multiple levels that Super Astro Cat contains, you’ll hop between different planets in search of the ideal one to colonise. In order to do so, you must avoid deadly obstacles, dodge incoming bullets, and return fire of your own in order to rid this terra nova of its current inhabitants.
If we are being honest, it doesn’t seem like the cats are particularly the good guys here – what with the invading and colonising – but we are here to do a job and do the job we must!
