Neko Navy

There's a surprising amount of depth to this kitty cute 'em up. I tend to zero in on survival in shmups but the scoring mechanics are super addicting and I found myself restarting again and again trying to squeeze out as many points as I could. Neko Navy rules and I bet you'll find an engaging challenge that's right for you in here regardless of skill level. P.S. Just chill on the menu and listen to the music for a little bit. Great track.

Instead of piloting futuristic spacecraft or military aircraft, players control flying cats as they blast their way through increasingly strange waves of enemies.
