PsychotronicFat CatBeen wondering what Nitrome creative duo Simon Hunter and Aaron Steed have been up to since the release of Final Ninja? Well, here's your answer. They've been very busy being amazing, and Fat Cat is the strange hybrid product of their amazingitude. It wears the face of an exacting bullet-fest such as The Last Canopy or Pararalyzer, but underneath, its heart pumps the blood of a tightly choreographed puzzle game. I've never seen anything quite like it.

You control two characters simultaneously. First is the titular Fat Cat, a sanguine purple feline blimp who moves slowly and explodes if he gets hit three times by enemies or bullets. Your goal is to keep him alive through 21 levels, including 3 boss fights and a truly astounding volume of cannon fodder enemies. His lone attack is a doozy—a screen-devouring burp-powered laser that crushes certain wall tiles and shreds even the toughest enemy battleships. The catch is that the laser is fueled by food pick-ups, which tend to appear only just before they are needed. Steer the cat's lazy lard butt with [WASD] or the [arrow] keys, and fire the mega-laser-burp with [space].

The second character is an indestructible, multi-talented, and well-armed blue guardian owl. Control this one with the mouse, and fire an unlimited barrage of fireballs by holding the mouse button. The owl does nearly all of the heavy lifting in Fat Cat, with the power to block projectiles, drag around movable blocks, flip mirrors to redirect lasers, press special buttons that activate power-ups, and even drag the fat cat around bodily when his natural flight speed proves too pokey.

The difficulty level is fairly high, due to both the slim margin for errors, and the challenge of controlling a warrior with each hand. If you're having trouble, consider playing Fat Cat with a friend. The cat and the owl rely on each other to solve problems, but they act separately, making this one of the most interesting cooperative games around.

Analysis: Fat Cat is a searing indictment of the United States government's recent decision to bail out multiple failing corporations with federal tax money. The "fat cat" of the title represents the irresponsible CEOs who have reacted to the growing US financial crunch by taking expensive spa vacations and flying private jets to Washington in order to grovel for more hand-outs, so they can continue their game of high-stakes blackjack at taxpayer expense. The fat cat's little owl guardian is, of course, the analogue of the federal "wise owls" who continue to support a planned economy, even when its structure is crumbling in front of them. Thus Nitrome casts you as the villains in an allegorical quest about greed and the inevitability of corruption.

Kidding! None of that is remotely true. Fat Cat is literally about a big fat flying cat and his magical owl buddy. There is no sub-text whatsoever.

Fat CatAnyhoooo, the dual-character gameplay really makes this game something special. Because of the owl's unrestricted mobility, and its ability to block 90% of enemy projectiles, you'll rarely have to do any dodging. It won't hurt to have some shoot-'em-up twitch skills, but if you find yourself actually weaving through bullet patterns, manic shooter-style, you've probably screwed something up.

Almost every problem in the game can be solved through the joint deployment of brainpower and firepower, which puts Fat Cat in that most rarefied genre: the puzzle shooter. In the tradition of the grand old thoughtful shooters like R-Type, your success relies on level memorization and understanding your arsenal of abilities, both defensive and offensive.

Now, that may not be to everyone's taste. Some of the levels can feel quite long, especially when a particularly tricky and deadly challenge sends you back to the beginning before you've even had a chance to consider the solution. But what will keep you clicking on "try again" is the sheer cleverness of it all. You get to crush whole armies with big flying blocks. You get to charge up with napalm and carve a fiery path through a sea of techno-organic baddies. You get to fry enemies with their own lasers and outmaneuver homing bees. Homing bees! It's like a dream come true.

It also doesn't hurt that Fat Cat's graphics are some of the finest pixel work around, with huge, complicated cities scrolling by in multiple background layers. It's a happier, blockier-looking game than either Final Ninja or Dirk Valentine, but no less incredible.

I can't wait to see what these guys come up with next.

Okay, now it's loading! I'm on level 8. The safe spot was easy to find for "King Meka". From there, all I had to do was move my owl around. When I get on again, I'm going to beat level 8 and see what things everybody's talking about on level 9. This is a way for destroying enemies faster:

Put your mouse inside the enemy. Sometimes the enemy is destroyed twice as fast as normal.

Thanks again for a hilarious review, Psychotronic!

There's also a different interpretation:
How classic poems, such as "The Owl and the Pussycat" by Edward Lear, influence today's online games and gameplay, eg "Fat Cat" by Nitrome.
You could write a masters' thesis on it!

For the bullet tunnel at level 9:

Spoiler

Slip ahead of the bullets. Hug the left wall as far back as possible, taking cover behind the owl. Let the screen scroll up as much as possible. Once you have to move (probably when the right turrets are able to fire at you), wipe a gap between the left and right bullet streams and move up past them. After that, you can edge forward to stay just ahead of the streams until you pass the tunnel.

The more you can let the screen scroll before moving, the more space you'll have to creep ahead of the streams. Pick up the cat after wiping for better control.

It might also help to limit your movements until the last second, to focus all the bullets at one spot.

I LOVE Fatcat! It's the first Nitrome game that is addicting and not frustrating to me!
See, I love it a lot because it has catchy (Hehehe, pun) music, I love killing off enemies that normally take 4 shots in with 1 slide of a cube. And the design is just adorable~ *fangirl* my favorite nitrome game ever. (My second being Toxic 2)

What a lovely game concept, and a lovely implementation. It got me to finally sign up for an account with JIG.

Gryphon78 December 4, 2008 8:08 PM

I love this game, but there is one thing I hate. When you move the blocks, they are dangerous to the cat. I try to move the blocks to kill enemies, and I end up killing my cat! I think the blocks should have just pushed the cat around, and if the cat gets stuck then you can't move the block until the cat gets unstuck.

Reply

Sometimes, if I'm doing too much shooting, the cat gets stuck and won't move. I think this is probably a bug. I have a cable connection...

Reply

Great game, although 19 was too difficult.

A strategy for the final boss:

Spoiler

At the beginning of the level, stay in a lower corner and shoot the corner directly above it. At the boss, keep the cat in the middle of the bottom of the screen, and have the owl hover over the enemy that shoots bees, blocking all of the bees without having to move. Concentrate on the cat dodging projectiles without the owl's assistance. If you can stay alive long enough to kill the bee enemy, the rest of the battle is much easier (even with only one life left).
Concentrate on killing the lower middle enemy next, and block all of the green projectiles that come in the way of the cat. Once the middle guy is out, it's safe to take the cat out of the lower center, for favor of the side. Hover the owl over the enemy on the side you choose to begin killing it and blocking its projectiles. The other enemy's projectiles should be spread out enough to be easily avoided. Once there is only one guy left, the battle is a cakewalk.

This strategy got me through the final boss within a few tries.

Reply

I agree about level 19. Not only is the first part nearly impossible because you can't kill the enemies fast enough to get the cat through, the second part of the level is essentially a TIMED mouse avoider game where your mouse takes up a good chunk of the screen.
Also, it's really easy to not pick up the cat and already be halfway through the maze before you realize your mistake and get back to it.
I'm thinking they got this stage idea from the Gradius series, but I have to say that even the Gradius version is easier than this one.
Otherwise, the game is amazing. Good job, guys!

I keep having the same problem as stated earlier where when the cat stops moving sometimes when I am firing. It's like the cat lags out or something.

Psychotronic, due to the blog, "The owl and the pussycat went to sea in a beautiful pea-green boat...and then they went on an amazing adventure where the cat could fly and the owl could shoot lasers out of his eyes!" I think that there is a relationship between "The Owl and the Pussycat" and "Fat Cat".

Level 9 is hard, but I'm determined to get past it. I just can't remember what it's like, seeing as I played it yesterday.

JI, for 17, place the block on the left side and burp all over the right side.

This is really good, what with the separate characters of the owl and the pussycat. One of my favourite things to do is SMASH enemies with blocks.
Unfortunately, the cat can't shoot when he has been hit. Made a couple of situations difficult.

Level 9 was one of the most difficult, but the rest wasn't too frustrating.

Reply

Lazani, We thought the difficulty of the original game was a little too hard for mass audience appeal (although enjoyably challenging) and we wanted as many people as possible to enjoy another great Nitrome game. Hopefully it is easy enough to get in to now and still hard enough to master!

Only the first 9 levels were modified to form a difficulty arc that started a lot lower.

We were looking at Don Don Pachi and other Cave bullet-hell shoot em ups during development. Fat Cat is child's play by comparison.

King Mecha:

The safe spot is right in the middle. Move the cat to the middle and little up from the bottom and put the owl in front of her and no bullet will hit you.

A magnificent game!

A cool thing, if you have enough megaburp when crossing the finish line, use it right before you get there, after you finish the level you can sit in awe as the beautiful pixel art shines towards you. Excellent game.!:p

HERES A TIP:

When you die you slowly accumulate points, this can be useful when trying to get in high score. If you defeat a couple of levels then die leave the browser up for a few days and there you have it!!! HIGH SCORE

Stand right on the front of the nose of the ship with the owl in front shooting the king. When you destroy the king, kill the fat guys with the owl.

Ok, why the heck does the cat explode if you leave it waiting behind a wall for more than a fricking second!?!??!? If you leave him behind a wall to keep him safe while you kill bad guys, All the sudden that horridly annoying "MEeeeeoW!" and it explodes.

I mean, even if i'm just moving a block for a second and he's waiting behind it the spoiled feline meows and dies!

Reply

just completed the game
final boss was hard here's my strategy

Spoiler

you should stay at one side at the beginning and rapidly fire directly ahead. when u reach the boss, choose one of the green projectile flowers and shoot it, keeping the owl directly between the cat and the bee flower. When u see tri-bullets coming towards u, ignore them and carry on shooting. Take damage and then move over to the other green flower while the invincibility is active. Repeat the same thing and then move the cat in front of the tri-bullet alien. Shoot the bee flower and continuely block the bees while the cat dodges the tri-bullets. When the bee flower is dead, shoot the alien while continueing to dodge the tri-bullets. It's not too hard if you follow this strategy which I recommend. It's not possible to block the bees and the green bullets by putting the owl in front of the flower which is why the earlier strategy does not work.

I just beat the game and took zero damage on the final boss. My strategy is to stay in the middle and fire till bee cannon is gone, this way it's easy to block bees and you can dodge the bullets by moving the cat. Now its easy to destroy the other cannons.

the cat probably got squashed or something because it cant go through walls andthe moving block hurts it because it has a special forfield around it hurting/destroying everything it touches

for china:
the safe spot for level 7 (king meka) is in the middle of the screen, a little bit off the bottom. notice that the purple bullet clusters can seem to touch you but it doesn't count as a hit for some odd reason. leave the cat there and use the invincible owl to shoot down the boss
this info is posted in the feed so you should probably read it before you ask questions

how do you pass level 19?
i tried so many times but i'm stuck!flower

Reply

to beat level nineteen you need to pick up the cat in between the enemies
at the beginning (until the orange plasma walls) DONT pick up the cat because you will need that time to let the owl go ahead and get a head start on the enemies
you should get to the orange plasma with full health (giving you some room for error)
pick up the cat and move him side to side, drop him, shoot the two enemies, and go on to the next one
this part just takes a little patience
then the rest should be simple
however the part with all the green cuby guys that fill the screen is kind of hard:
stock up on laser and save it until the last possible minute (by going in the middle and shooting with the owl) then blast you way through everything with the laser and go all the way to the left top corner of the screen where you can wait it out (kind of like in the bullet tunnel for level 9)
the part at the end with the small walls: remember to pick up the cat and then hit the laser and pick him up (that part shouldn't be too hard)
then the final wall, blast through and FINISH

Reply

um if you cant beat level two then you have problems
only things i can think of is that to move the blocks you have to click with the owl and drag.
the cat will die if it gets hit by a block.
use the block to crush enemies.
maybe that helps

for level 18: remember, to beat a level you dont have to have all 3 health boxes
for the sparkly things you can pick up the cat and just move it through- the cat becomes invincible for a few seconds after being hit
if this doesn't work, the way i did it was to wait as long as possible for the stars to go by most of the way and then go out from behind the wall and cut right immediately, wiping away bullets with the owl
the star things should keep going by and the bullets disperse, making it easy for you to dodge the few that get past the owl
the next round of star things should be easy because you can wait a while for the screen to scroll and the stars should have mostly passed you

Okay, I only got up to 17, but here's a few genius tips.

Spoiler

To get past bullets while killing stuff, place the owl directly on the monster spawning the things, and shoot. The owl will absorb bullets and kill the other monster at the same time.
If theres a burp-breakable wall coming up, with lots of cake before it, eat the cake after you have used up remaining burp power. then none gets wasted ^.^

On level 15, when i am the final bit and trying to kill the things that are producing the bees (at least they look like bees to me), the fat cat uses all his lasers at once, no matter how lightly i press the button. Is there some sort of method to it?

Reply

Fat Cat is indeed the best nitrome game i have ever played. Finished the whole game. Here's the tips for the last boss. This tip is basically the easiest to follow if you concentrate on your cat and just let your owl do the blocking.

Spoiler

Start, you'll have to move to either left or right bottom and keep your owl blasting straight forward to keep a clear track for your cat. After you are free to move, quickly shoot the middle of the king shroom. Move your cat to bottom left(left only a little) to avoid the tri-bullet. When it has done that attack once, move your cat towards the right side(not too right).(REMEMBER TO CONTROL YOUR OWL TO BLOCK ALL INCOMING BEES/BULLETS).King Shroom will launch the tri-bullet very close to each other on the left first(its too close for you to avoid it in between), then it will do the same on the right, upper right, upper left side. Move towards the left while protecting the cat after the left side tri-bullet is shot because it will give you more time to avoid the right side tri-bullet.(Always remember to keep your owl firing although while blocking).Then just put the cat there until king shroom shoots the all-round tri-bullet again(twice). Repeat the procedure until u kill king shroom. After u kill king shroom, move your cat towards the middle and start shooting the bees flower(as it is the most annoying thing)(DO NOT try to pick up the food even with owl or the cat, it will damage you). Just keep firing at it while blocking everything you see. The tri-bullet is no longer there, you no longer have to worry about unblockable bullets(=,= annoying). When it is destroyed, it's your choice to use the owl to pick up the food( I did it, I almost died but managed to block just in time. Think of avoiding the green bullets by just the cat while your owl gets the food? Nearly impossible).After you eat the food/destroy the bees flower and did not bother about the food first, move your cat towards right or left(bottom of the green bullets flower but remember to keep your cat at the bottom of the screen) then just fire and block. When its done, you've got better chance to pick up the food with the owl. After u do that or maybe not, move your cat towards the left out flower(bottom of the screen). Fire the laser or just fire and block till it goes boom. AND DONE. CONGRATS! Trust me. This was the easiest way i could do it. I just tried once or twice and done. Hehe. Good Luck.

It looks hard to understand but all i explained was pretty simple. Very easy to follow. Good Luck

I am so stuck on level 11.

Reply

Woah. This is the first Nitrome game I have actually made an effort to find a computer where I can play it as smoothly as possible. And it's worth it. What a GREAT game.

It's not even that hard, if you approach it from the right angle. If it's too hard, odds are you are doing something wrong, and instead of brute-forcing it, you more often then not must stop, relax and try to figure out another approach. BUT you really need a good mouse and a good enough computer without slowdowns... the slowdowns truly killed the game, especially in the last levels where they somehow make you drop the big cat which is most likely instant death.

One other thing that bothered me is the way the right mouse button gets in the way if you accidentally press it, but that's Flash games for you. Other then that, the game is perfect, the difficulty curve is just right and the only thing it misses is more levels.

Fat Cat FTW.

StarsInHerEyes,

Here your tip on level 11

Spoiler

Use the laser when you are facing the tri-bullet guy but keep in mind that your mega-burp bar is full before u face him. Use the mega-burp for a certain amount of quantity only cause you'll be needing it for 6 big guys( 4 tri-bullets and 2 green UFO-like producer.( By the way, mega-burp destroys tri-bullet =D) After that, you'll face 2 more block-like producer. If you still have some mega-burp left, just use it. Those two are the last things you'll face in level 11.

Here's a tip on how to fill your mega-burp bar really quick.

Spoiler

When you reach the green UFO-like, move your cat and your owl to the middle and make your owl keep firing at the point where the UFO-like crosses each other. You'll kill all of 'em for sure and each kill will give you one cake and your cat is ready to eat 'em. No hard work =D. Yum!. ^^

I hope I helped you. Have fun.

laura,

Pick up the cat in between the enemies?
I don't think that sentence appeared in the level. Did u meant pick up the cat to survive? =.=... What you need is to have 3 health boxes when you enter the fire walls and just pick up your cat when you see a long path for your cat to move to another safety point. Basically level 19 is on your own. It does not have much tactics to follow. Just speed and accuracy.

King Kacta was fun. ^^

Spoiler

The only way to survive King Kacta is to block the projectiles. Move your cat to the bottom right(a little only) where u can avoid the tri-bullets. Destroy the two flying projectile shooter on the left and the right first while blocking all projectiles that is coming towards your cat. Just leave your cat there and let the owl do the job. Once you're done with those two, pick up the food using the owl and use the mega-burp(it should hit if you're still in the same position). If the first Kacta did not die, just shoot it. Get the cake and use it. Then just keep firing and King Kacta while blocking the projectiles. I suppose that is not that hard to follow.

Have fun. =D

the part with all the bullets coming at you at the same time

Reply

Why do those tri bullets only hurt you some of the time?

Reply

adam,

Do you mean the part where all the starts shoots a lot of bullets?

Spoiler

For that part, you'll just need to take the napalm and kill the stars as fast as possible. Start from the one nearest to you and just use your owl to block the bullet but you will have to be quick. Just when you see the first star quickly activate your napalm and start destroying and make sure your cat doesn't get squashed( I lose concentration and got squashed). Just keep your cat in the clear route where your owl blocks the bullets. When u start destroying them, you'll block 85% of the bullets coming at you. That should be easy.

Maybe your com lags or something? There's no tri-bullet in level 18.

Spoiler

If I am right... you are probably stuck at the green projectile shooter right? For that part, you have to move your cat towards the bottom right side of your screen(not till the end, just like few cm away). Then you use your owl to control the block. Make sure you have 3 health boxes in case one or two green thingy escapes and your mega-burp bar MUST be filled up. Now, when the reign of green terror comes, make sure your owl is right at the top of the screen while controlling the block. Move your owl about 70-80% of the screen on top, making those green projectile shooter destroyed when reaching your screen. Then let your cat use the mega-burp to clear up his place. You also can use it to clear up incoming bullets(even from the side) but make sure you save up enough mega-burp to last the whole way(Its a long long route). You should clear up the stage in no time.

If you still need any more help, ask.

meta2,

King Kacta was fun. ^^

Spoiler

The only way to survive King Kacta is to block the projectiles. Move your cat to the bottom right(a little only) where u can avoid the tri-bullets. Destroy the two flying projectile shooter on the left and the right first while blocking all projectiles that is coming towards your cat. Just leave your cat there and let the owl do the job. Once you're done with those two, pick up the food using the owl and use the mega-burp(it should hit if you're still in the same position). If the first Kacta did not die, just shoot it. Get the cake and use it. Then just keep firing and King Kacta while blocking the projectiles. I suppose that is not that hard to follow.

Have fun. =D

Level 15 is killing me. I get so frustrated I have to walk away. Its been 2 days and I still can't get past the few opening sections. Help!!

Razormint - thanks for your help with 11.

King Kacta (or however you spell it):

Spoiler

Notice that there is a pattern with the tribullets. Move the cat to the bottom and slightly to the right and focus on that cannon. You'll have to wipe out bullets from the cactus and move the cat to avoid the tribullets. In the mean time, shoot the cannon when he is on the screen.
Focus on one side at a time and move the cat in and out of the tribullets. Once you figure the pattern out, its pretty easy.

finally through level 15

Spoiler

Move the cat up to about half screen every chance you get so that you don't get smooshed. Hide behind the blocks when possible. Shoot as much with the owl as you are going to need the MegaBurp at the end.

When you reach the bee cannon area, hold "s" to keep the cat as close to the bottom as possible. Burp to kill the cannons while the owl picks off the bees. Make sure to eat when you get the chance. Trial and error is how I finally got through it...

This game is awesome!!
Here is a great tip I always use in school!

Play together with another person. More people can enjoy the game at once and you don't have to control the cat and the owl!!

In level 19, you have to drag the fat cat to pass through the maze.

Arrrgh! This is like patting your head and rubbing your stomach at the same time. Once you get the hang of it, you just can't stop doing it. :)
