Natto-Cat - 1.4

arcade remake explosions cat boulderdash

Natto-Cat is a unique Boulderdash style arcade game. You play as RB51, a half robot / half cat agent searching underground caves for cat snacks. Adversaries include walking, exploding custards, force-fed exploding rabbits, and expanding green peas. When enemies explode, they splatter blood (or custard) on surrounding objects, so it is a bit violent. These splatter effects can be turned off by editing a prefs file. There are 25 caves (and 6 intermissions). There are 3 difficulty levels for each cave, the highest of which is extremely challenging. Currently, only a Windows py2exe binary is available.

Natto-Cat now comes with a cave editor, so you can make your own custom caves and cave systems. This is the same editor I used to make the included caves... it's buggy and the interface leaves much to be desired. However people were asking for an editor, so I decided to patch a few of its bigger, unsightly holes and upload it.

If anyone creates some fun caves, send them to me and I'll put them up at natto-cat.org for everyone to download.

As for the game itself, some small, specific bugs have been fixed, including an amusing one where in certain rare situations (multiple exits in a timed cave) custards and rabbits could ride an exit elevator out of the cave.
