Overall, Catlateral Damage is an adorable take on why cats do what they do. I found myself continuing to play with the sole mission to unlock as many of the special stages as I could to see what the developers came up with next. A personal favorite is the Furightful Lab, where you get the opportunity to wreck a mad scientist’s spooky experiments and equipment. These can range from a grocery store with aisles of food to wreck to the Pawliday Den, a Christmas decorated living room with a large, cat-magnet of a Christmas tree.

Some stages feature opportunities to unlock special stages with a twist. Some homes are chock full of expensive electronics to topple while others may have a plethora of plants and health food strewn about. Each one has its distinct, quirky personality. That’s all it takes to become a true force to be reckoned with.ĭuring your rampage, you will be placed in a new home for each stage you advance to. The left and right mouse buttons act as your left and right paws, the space bar is your jump function and the “F” key acts as the “meow” and “bite” functions of your selected kitty. The controls are fairly simple, and can be picked up by even the most casual gamer. The start menu, featuring Nippy the tuxedo cat.įirst person view introduces what it would be like to control a very frustrated feline. The goal is simple: knock as much of the stuff in the house onto the ground as quickly as possible as a very angry cat. Developer Chris Chung set out on a mission to flip the first-person genre on its head. A Steam Greenlight and Kickstarter campaign success, Catlateral Damage is “a first-person destructive cat simulator where you play as a cat on a rampage”. While many of us can’t agree if they’re Hell’s spawn or Heaven’s little angels, one thing we can agree on is that they have very nasty habits of knocking over anything even remotely important that may, unfortunately, be in their way. Some cats alone will make more money than we will in our entire lifetimes. People invest billions of dollars into cat-themed merchandise yearly. The internet collectively loses its mind over cat videos.

From their fur to their claws, to their wildly varying personalities, they have intrigued us as a society for generations.
