  • Steampunk Location & Improving Cat Skills - 8 January 2025

    Friends, I’m excited to present to you a HUGE update for Cat Bait! Let’s go over everything step by step: Unique Upgrades for Helper Cats Now each Helper Cat has four attack options: the standard one (which was available before) and three unique ones depending on upgrades. These changes greatly expand the variety of gameplay, allowing for new builds and strategies (and this is just the beginning, as more Helper Cats are on the way!). This update significantly boosts replayability and impacts gameplay across all locations, including the new one. New Location: Sea Machine Immerse yourself in the steampunk atmosphere! A massive sea factory is filled with enemies and new challenges, including an epic Boss crafted by sinister mouse hands. For the Bait Cat, there’s a new steampunk-style outfit with a unique active ability, and the atmosphere is complemented by three amazing tracks specially c…

  • Progress of the Major Update - 18 November 2024

    Well, folks, here’s some news! This update is turning out to be much bigger and more complex than we initially expected. But I’m ready to share the current progress in the form of statistics: from fully completed segments to those still in progress. 🐾 New Cat Helper: ██████████ 100% 🎵 New music tracks: ██████████ 100% ✨ Unique upgrades for all Helpers: █████████_ 85% 🔊 Sound effects: ███████___ 70% 🌍 New location progress: █████_____ 50% 🦇 New boss: █████_____ 50% 🐀 New enemies: █████_____ 50% 🌐 Descriptions and translations: █_________ 10% 🎨 New artwork for the Steam update: ___________ 0% The most challenging part (unique upgrades for all Helpers) is almost done. This will speed up work on the remaining categories. However, even after everything is ready, we’ll need to conduct final testing to catch as many bugs as possible. Previously, I mentioned that the update would releas…

  • Working on a HUGE update! - 18 October 2024

    Information about the new upgrade for ALL Helper Cats in Cat Bait! Now, each Helper Cat will have, in addition to the current attack type, three more options! When you first select a Cat, it will have the standard attack (the same as now). However, you won't be able to upgrade all the Cat's enhancements anymore. Out of three enhancements, you can choose only two: one to upgrade to the maximum (third) level, and the second — only to one level. After that, you will be able to choose a unique enhancement (which I call "super-enhancement" in the code). This choice will depend on which standard enhancement you upgraded to the maximum level. Example with the Archer Cat. Let's say you decided to upgrade Damage as the main enhancement. After Damage is upgraded to the maximum level, and the second enhancement, for example, Attack Speed, to one level, on the next stage, you will be able to choose…

  • Linux build fix - 28 August 2024

    Due to a bug, the Linux build was unavailable for some. It is now available for download.

  • Cat Bait is another new take on the survivor-like genre about a cat running away from rats - 28 August 2024

    Another new take on what Vampire Survivors and Brotato made popular? Yep. Cat Bait is out now in Early Access and there's a demo available too. Read the full article here: https://www.gamingonlinux.com/2024/08/cat-bait-is-another-new-take-on-the-survivor-like-genre-about-a-cat-running-away-from-rats

  • The game's out! - 27 August 2024

    Early Access release trailer: . Don't forget you can write about the game, share your creativity, suggest improvements and notify us of bugs in our Discord: https://discord.gg/mayniprod. I actually feel pretty strongly about it, and hope the game is at least a little bit fun for you 😱

  • Just a little more! - 26 August 2024

    Due to the delay in checking the page in Steam, we had to slightly postpone the release of the game. Cat Bait will go on sale on 27.08.2024 at 19:00 Kiev time (! This is already 100% certain, so get ready!)

  • Adding Difficulty Levels to Demo - 1 August 2024

    Main Change: - Difficulty levels added: "Easy" and "Normal." Normal is the original difficulty level, while Easy includes many changes to make the game more accessible! Other Changes: - The hitbox of the Cat Bait head area has been slightly reduced. - The "Fast Paws" upgrade has been changed. It can now only be taken once but provides a +12% movement speed boost immediately. The chance of this upgrade appearing in the selection has been reduced. - Mage Mice have been nerfed. They now take longer to create a fireball, and if you kill them before it appears, the fireball will not spawn. - Shaman Cat has been buffed. The starting damage is increased to 12, and its effect on size has been improved. Each upgrade now adds +40% to size. - Bodybuilder Cat has been buffed. Now its anvils can't fall in the same spot (where the Bait Cat is located), as a minimum radius around the cat has been adde…

Steam marketplace comparison data

Price History Overview

USD uses SteamPulse's own locally recorded daily store snapshots, so this overview reflects the exact regional price history that SteamPulse has captured for this currency.

Coverage And Tracking Window

  • Snapshots: 1
  • Coverage: Sep 24, 2026 to Sep 24, 2026
  • Lowest observed: $4.99
  • Highest observed: $4.99

Cat Bait's USD price history spans from Sep 24, 2026 to Sep 24, 2026, with 1 recorded snapshot across 1 calendar day. Each row records the available final price, listed base price, and discount metadata for that observation. Within this coverage the lowest recorded price is $4.99, the highest is $4.99, and the first visible tracked price is $4.99. These comparisons apply only to the snapshots SteamPulse holds; missing observations can contain changes that are not represented here.

For USD, SteamPulse uses locally captured regional storefront snapshots and does not reconstruct older prices with exchange-rate conversion. The chart and table show the values recorded for this exact currency from the stated coverage start. Additional snapshots extend that record, but they do not fill unobserved days or prove what the storefront displayed between observations.

Discount Windows And Sale Timing

  • Discount windows: 0
  • Discounted days: 0 days
  • Deepest markdown: No discount tracked
  • Latest sale window: No sale window tracked

Cat Bait's tracked USD rows do not contain a discount window. This means no available snapshot in the stated coverage has usable discount metadata; it does not prove that the game was never discounted. Missing snapshots or archived rows without complete metadata can hide a sale, so SteamPulse does not infer pricing strategy from this absence.

If a later snapshot includes discount metadata, it will appear here with its recorded depth, price, date, and sale name when available. Until then, this section should be read only as a description of the available rows, not as evidence about the publisher's promotion policy.

Observed Price Changes And Stable Runs

  • Observed price drops: 0
  • Observed price rises: 0
  • Longest stable run: 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking
  • Current run: 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking

Outside rows carrying discount metadata, the tracked price has not recorded a separate price rise or drop yet. That means the observed undiscounted level has stayed stable across the snapshots SteamPulse currently holds. This is a statement about the recorded coverage only; it does not prove that an older or missing price change never happened.

The longest unchanged price stretch in the current record lasts 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking at $4.99, from Sep 24, 2026 through Sep 24, 2026. Among rows without discount metadata, the longest unchanged run lasts 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking at $4.99. The latest run records $4.99 for 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking as the same recorded undiscounted price. Run lengths describe consecutive stored observations only and do not establish that a price is permanent.

Latest Snapshot And Sales Context

  • Current price: $4.99
  • Current list price: $4.99
  • Distinct observed prices: 1
  • Source mode: SteamPulse local tracking

The latest tracked snapshot records Cat Bait at $4.99 in USD, with no active discount metadata. Across the available history SteamPulse has recorded 1 distinct final price in this currency. This supports comparisons with the lowest, highest, and most common values present in the retained record, subject to the stated coverage limits.

The live sales view and Steam sales record provide calendar context for these dates. A date overlap can be compared with a named Steam event, but it does not prove why a publisher changed a price. As new daily rows arrive, this overview recalculates its observed prices, discount windows, and run lengths automatically.
