Astrocats : Supernova Alert
- In space, no one can hear you meow.

Space missions can be full of hazards, even when you're an Astrocat. Roger Cutiepaw and Mireille Whiskers are about to get caught in the supernova of a nearby dying star. They need help repairing their ship before the explosion blast gets to them. It sure as hell won't be easy... Are you up to the task ?

Gameplay :
Use the left and right arrow keys to fly the ship and bring Roger over the parts that need fixing. When the repair bar is full, Roger and Mireille will be able to speed up and get away from the supernova. Good luck, and mind the asteroids !

I got a big black rectangle in front of the screen, But I loved the "Meowday Meowday" and the animation of the start, great job !

Thanks for your report, we are fixing that ;)
For now you can try the Windows version, it's working.

It's very hard! The controls are tricky to get used to but after that it gets pretty fun. I love all the graphics. :)

It's extremely hard. For a while I thought the only objective is to get far away from the supernova, but then I realized that I have to make the cat-engineer collide with my ship too. It's far too hard I believe. Anyway, interesting game :)

A first i though you couldn't use right AND left at the same, then the game got easier =)
The animation at the beginning is definitly awesome !

Good job

Nice graphics and sound effects. I didn't get the goal at first so I tried to go as far as possible. I didn't see the supernova explosion from the left before my second try.
The game is hard overall, but quite enjoyable too!
Congratulations!

This was hilarious from the get go. Animation and sound at the start are brilliant! Meow! Sense of threat constantly and infuriatingly those damned asteroids seem to get more accurate as your ship repairs. Cunning. Managed it in the end 72.17! Well done :)

Cool idea. I liked the art style and the 2001-drone soundtrack fit well. It's REALLY hard to get the cat to land right. But it's possible. I enjoyed the intro animation/story bit! Good job on this.

Surprisingly hard for such a simple game. The controls were lagging sometimes so I had my rage moments.
