• 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…

• 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…
