Catarsis: Catventure

Catarsis: Catventure is an action roguelike in which you control Nyx, a cat who takes control of a pre-robot prototype, and fight evil robots threatening humanity. You defeat robots to gain XP, then upgrade your character and weapons as you move through successive rooms. Weapon and ability choices, along with quick reflexes and strategy, are central to surviving.

Story

Humans and advanced robots lived in peace for centuries, until a group of powerful robots decided they no longer needed humanity and declared war. The robots gathered in the Net Building, created mini robots to serve their plans and launched a surprise attack that brought humanity to the verge of extinction.

Paw Lab, the most advanced laboratory in the Catarsis universe, had been developing a robot controlled by mental power, but its tests repeatedly failed. One night, the lab cat Nyx entered the pre-robot prototype. By morning, the scientists discovered that Nyx could control the machine they had been unable to operate. The cats and the scientists’ pre-robots may be humanity’s chance to defeat the evil robots and their army.

Fight and upgrade

In each room, you survive attacks from the robots and kill them to gain XP. You can buy and upgrade weapons and equipment, as well as improve your character. Choosing weapons and character abilities carefully is key to winning.
