About Neon Cyborg Cat Club
From composer Edwin Montgomery comes a new musical work for the COVID-19 era. In Neon Cyborg Cat Club, life as we know it no longer exists - but left in our wake are robotic cats, originally manufactured for companionship by a doomed humankind, now roaming an apocalyptic cityscape.
Enter a vivid 3D digital environment and transport yourself from the comfort of your own home to this dystopian feline future. There, you can visit one of the last areas populated by the cyborg cats, for an immersive and voyeuristic experience as the curious and wistful creatures create unique musical soundscapes with their individual movements. Audiences can choose which cats to spend time with, from a number of viewpoints, and enjoy private performances that are unique every time.
Choose from 4 different music modes, each with their own mood, time of day, and weather Choose up to 6 cats to create the performance for you (and discover their backstories) View the room from multiple camera angles, or follow a cat as it wanders Listen to the soundtrack be performed in real time - never the same way twice
A new music work for people who like cats, sci-fi, and listening to rain...

"Late in the 21st Century, shortly after mankind eradicated all natural animal and plant life on earth, they succeeded in destroying their own species - homo sapiens.
As the last humans die of starvation in the world's great cities, the mechanical cats they built for comfort continue to roam in the towers of glass and steel high above, in rooms called CAT SANCTUARIES.
One by one, over many years, the batteries in the cats shut down. One of the last remaining active rooms was known as the NEON CYBORG CAT CLUB."

I bought this game because it seemed like it would help with my severe anxiety, My aim was to relax and fall asleep to it. Well for that it works good enough, I'm not gonna knock that. I like the rain mode, but there's like a mode for waking up too it's nice. The problem is is that while I sleep the cats glitch out and stop moving. You might think "so what?". Well the cats have to walk over these neon pads for the music to happen, so you're left with dead silence. So when I wake up 3-4 hours later (I hate my metabolism) I have to get up and reset the game instead of hearing the nice relaxing music that would, SHOULD be there to lul me back to sleepy land. I would give this game a rigorous 2 thumbs up if it weren't for these cat glitches. Cheap and enjoyable. Devs if your reading this, fix your damn cats so I can SLEEEEEEEP!7 found this helpful

[h1]#tinygamereviews[/h1] [code] It's an odd blend of idler, management sim, and straight-up screen saver with postapocalyptic lore and backstory and some truly awful lighting effects. That was a sentence. [/code] [list] [*][b][u]Overall Score[/u][/b]: 2/5 [/list] [hr][/hr] [h1][b]Curator: [url=https://store.steampowered.com/curator/42137521/]Nostalginauts[/url][/b][/h1]
read the description. the dev describes exactly what this interactive digital experience entails (less than a game and slightly more than a screensaver). The idea is interesting and executed decently enough. I did see another reviewer comment on the fact that they wanted to use this software to assist with their sleep (as do i) but within a few hours the cats "glitch out" and no longer play music (then again, maybe its more realistic that cats can never be made to do anything that they don't feel like doing). Dev replied stating that they would look into and attempt correcting this issue. I am going to determine whether the issue was ever corrected (update coming soon)...another reviewer stated that there is the option to change the robotic-cat-LEDs but i have not yet seen the way to do that. suggestions for the dev: 1. add ability to increase number of cats (even if increasing the number of cats ends up causing bizarre in-game effects, that may actually add to the appeal of this bizarre little gem), 2. you don't have to vary the cat models but at least vary the cat skins - use solid colours if you must but at least add some variety in that regard. all of that being said,…
