Mewgenics
From the creator of The Binding of Isaac, Super Meat Boy and The End is Nigh comes... Mewgenics! A game where you hoard, breed, train and set cats out on epic adventures through a sprawling world of complete chaos. Level up your team as you venture further and further from your home, collect unique items, defeat epic bosses, gain mutations and return home so you you can breed and further your bloodline, in this turn based legacy roguelike draft sim about cats!
What it feels like
The cat-breeding premise and comedy genre create a deliberately mischievous, lighthearted tone. The absurd premise of a cat genetics simulator with epic adventures evokes quirky fanciful charm.
What it's about
The hoarding, breeding, and daily management of a cat household forms the slice-of-life core.
How it plays
Turn-based tactical combat is explicitly central to the core gameplay loop. Drafting abilities and genetic traits is a major progression mechanism described as core to the experience. Manipulating genetics, mutations, and drafting abilities creates deep build variety across the cat bloodline.
How it looks and sounds
A game about breeding and hoarding cats centers adorable character design.
How it's structured
Explicitly single-player focused with no multiplayer component. Ventures out on adventures that return home, with a legacy roguelike structure where runs reset with persistent progression. Mutations, bred traits, and genetic improvements accumulate across runs to strengthen future generations.
