Cat Meow-tilation Launches Free on Steam
Phoenixx released the PC game Cat Meow-tilation on Steam on August 17, 2026, at no cost. The title is a cat capture game developed by EASYHUMAN. Players take on the role of a fish-headed alien called the U-O Alien, who visits Earth to collect cat data and save their home planet from an invasion by mouse-type creatures. The gameplay is built around a variation of the children's game Red Light, Green Light, known in Japan as Daruma-san ga Koronda. Players hide inside cardboard boxes, wait for cats to approach, and then pop out to startle them, creating an opening to capture them with a mysterious light. The game includes features such as combo bonuses for capturing multiple cats at once, a Maneki Neko bonus that triggers at score thresholds, items to lure or stop cats, and adjustable camera angles. It supports Japanese and English and is available for one player.
