CityCat Prowl - This teased cat project for the C64 by Polytricity, is looking rather decent! [UPDATE]

What do you get if you mix up the isometric style of The Last Ninja and blend it altogether with a bit of cat complexities? Probably this game! A new Commodore 64 project by Polytricity called 'CityCat Prowl'. This game, created by Robert Ramsay, will have you not only playing as a friendly feline, but you'll also be prowling through dynamic environments both above and below ground, while also completing tasks and interacting with other characters. So yes, this is one game that, if it does gets finished, may well be a big hit with the C64 community.

Here's the latest from the website. "A game where you play as a cat just walking through the city streets looking for adventure, interacting with the locals, getting into situations and just trying to find his way home. This game will be a nod to the 4:1 isometric ration rarely seen on C64, have full bespoke bitmaps, handcrafted in Backdrop designer and McDraw, and finally, will have fully animated sprites with 8-way directional control created in Spred64".

Still to do:

• put together a working demo
• add music 
• add interactions and things to do

The road ahead:

• If demand is high, consider a complete physical version for C64's planned sequels (Way of the paw and Art of the Claw) introducing combat [no spoilers]

The team:

• Working with the awesome talent from Megastyle 
• Robert Ramsay [Art] [Prototyping]

Update : According to the creator a new build has been released with the following noted on the website "For those who donated, you get access to the recent PC build (the gamemaker version used for prototyping) , C64 production is on hold until we have the prototype fully figured out. Recent update includes the first few puzzles to solve, currently once you get the key that's as far as we've got so far =)"
