Blade Kitten Demo

When it comes to space action, nothing is too weird or too exaggerated, as science fiction movies proved countless times before. This is mostly visible in the alien races that are part of the story, because they always seem to feature unlikely characteristics meant to make them both different and similar to humans at the same time.

Blade Kitten tells the story of a character that’s part girl and part cat at the same time, aptly named Kit Ballard. She is obviously an alien, but beside the fact that she is one of the few left in her species, not a lot of background is given, which is better, considering the circumstances. Even so, it is quite clear that the main purpose of the game is to provide the players with a bit of fun and not something serious that would get you thinking too much.

As such, the story sees Kit descending on a distant and dangerous planet called Hollow Wish. Here, she must deal with the rogue mechs and soft targets that have a bounty on their heads, using anything from martial arts to various types of weapons. Naturally, the main purpose is to keep moving forward, in order to advance to the next levels and try to explore the entire planet.

Exploration is also rewarded with a variety of interesting goodies, including more costumes for Kit and a lot of other bonuses to keep your interest level high. As such, it can be quite entertaining to search for hidden areas, although they can also be quite dangerous and cause a few deaths here and there. The new costumes are definitely worth it, on the other hand, since you cannot get them through any other means.

Technically, the game is not a modern wonder, but it is colorful enough to make you smile on a regular basis. Not only that, but the animations are nicely done and they really help with the overall atmosphere, as long as you do not mind all the pink floating around. The same goes for the sound effects and the music, not to mention the fact that professional voice actors were used to inspire life into the characters.

In the end, Blade Kitten is not exactly something that leaves you with fond memories for years to come, but it is quite fun and entertaining for as long as it lasts. Hence, if you are in the mood for a challenge and a bit of weirdness, this is definitely the thing for you.
