Cats vs. Aliens - Cats vs Aliens Progress Update 1/5/2026 - Steam News Here's a list of what I've been working on and what's left to do.

For those not yet in the know, I'm having to redo ALL of Cats vs Aliens. It's.... painful. But It's getting done.
Here's the most recent update!

The beginning phase of inking for the new Cats vs Aliens start screen. It features a smaller goblin-like alien on the left in a defensive fighting posture, and a larger, amused cat character pouncing in from the right.

The progress on inking The Planet, which features elements from the various biomes a player can expect in the final version of the game.

This image features The Planet as a backdrop behind the alien and cast from the first image.

Taking a break from coding for a bit to refresh the start screen. Things are coming along steadily, despite delays.

Worth the effort? TBD.
Keeping me sane? Also TBD.
Fun, at least? Yup!

Cats vs. Aliens Playtest - Meownday Update #13 - Steam News Fall is here! And I'm back at it. (Also, this post ended up on the page for the main game instead of the Playtest yesterday.... HA! My brain, you guys...)

NEW UPDATE!
store.steampowered.com/news/app/289...

Fall is here, and I'm back to work (finally, am I right?!). I'm showcasing the game at the end of October, so I'll be grinding away until then (and afterward as well).

I'm super excited to share that Throne of Marrow now features VO from the extremely talented @kylejensenvo.bsky.social!

Thanks for this! Having spaces to help small timers break through the algorithm is so important if we want to see change in the industry. Instead of millions of monies to spend on ads and marketing professionals, most of us only have each other, so we need to work with what we have.

As a person with a degree in graphic design, my biggest pet peeves in games usuallu involve poorly executed UI stuff, so it's great that you're diving into this!
