The Fat Cat Fest

Got this game from one of the developers and I got to try it the day before release. It's a fun, chaotic game that is highly focused on fast responses/reflexes. There's a single player option but ofcourse most fun to play with a friend The cats are adorable and the sounds are just super funny and quirky. Played it for an hour with my sister in law and we giggled so much!

pretty fun local versus game, very colorful art-style, simple but catchy music

Very funny

If this game doesn't win the award for the best OST of the year, we failed the all the fat cats of the world

Good replayability and best enjoyed with friends. Worth the price IMO.

Graphically, the game inhabits that strange liminal space between “visually impressive” and …
