Catharage - Thank you for 1000 Wishlists! - Steam News NextFest recap, some stats and what's next for the game

After a very successful Steam #NextFest, my space #roguelite #Catharage has surpassed 1000 wishlists! Super grateful and excited to keep working on it to make sure it's as good as can be when it comes out later this year. #solodev #indiegames #space store.steampowered.com/news/app/387...

Gonna shamefully promote this game that I happen to like and have put many hours into and have become the #1 on the leaderboards for : store.steampowered.com/app/3879850/...
It's a roguelike space game , if you like ED/Eve and RL's , I'd wholly recommend it.

Hotds is the correct reference! In fact Catharage is inspired most directly by its in-development state that used to be called Enemy Starfighter and was structurally much closer to what Catharage is now. Glad to hear you like the game!
