Natto-Cat - 1.12

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.

Fixed a few extremely small bugs. Added support for caves saved in the yet to be finalized and still slightly vague Boulder Dash Common File Format. Valid *.bd files placed in Natto-Cat's "caves" directory will be available for selection at the main menu. (Most explicitly-mapped *.bd caves should work, but there are still some bugs in importing procedurably-mapped caves that use the pseudo random routine to fill the background before cave elements are drawn.)
