A menacing flock of cats is invading the planet! (Probably looking for food, since they haven't been eating for a couple of hours). You can choose among 12 valiant warriors and 14 lethal weapons (mostly fruits and vegetables, but still dreaded by cats) to fight these feisty felines and save the world. It's meow or never!

(Fun fact: a group of cats is actually called a clowder. Flock sounds funnier though).

A catty version of the classic 1978 arcade game Space Invaders (スペースインベーダー) with infinitely scrolling cats, it's made with LÖVE and purr-fect for every cat lover.

How to Play
