🐱 Cats 👽 Aliens 🧸 Cute 🕹 Shoot 'Em Up 🌟 Top-Down Shooter

A twin stick, fixed shooter, bonus hell, pixel art, shoot 'em up. Aliens have invaded and you, a blue housecat with a stretchy head, are, of course, our last hope. Fight the aliens on earth, under the ocean and in space in this risk/reward based fixed shooter inspired by old school shoot 'em ups.
