A dude teaches a cat to talk and you can only imagine how distressing it is when suddenly the world has cats that are able to say exactly what they’re thinking).īack to Gato Roboto. (Incidentally, and I know I’m getting off topic here, but if you’ve ever owned a cat you’ve got to read a short story by an author called Saki – it’s called Tobermory and it’s the funniest thing. So we all live with cats, and try oh-so-hard to make them love us and now we can play Gato Roboto to live vicariously through the fantasies of a game developer that actually still believes that cats can be heroes. Really, cats are sociopathic little monsters that would slaughter you in your sleep if they could figure out how to work the can opener to open their tinned food and render you completely redundant to their interests.īUT THEY’RE SO CUTE AND FUZZY AND DO THE FUNNIEST, FLUFFIEST THINGS. Now, as anyone who has ever owned cats knows, we all wait for the day that the damned felines up and prove their loyalties to us by doing something heroic… but that never actually happens.

One that jumps into a robotic suit and goes on an epic, deadly quest to save its owner, who is trapped (and in great danger) from his crashed space ship.

Part of the appeal of Gato Roboto is the main character. It’s brilliant.Īnd I don’t even like Metroid. And yet I’ve been unable to put this preview build down. It’s not hiding that or pretending otherwise.

Gato Roboto is Metroid meets Blaster Master. You can always be sure of one thing about anything Devolver Digital stamps its logo on somehow, even when it takes on a project that is completely traditional in scope, it manages to find a developer to do something interesting with tradition.
