Space Cats Tactics

Made by a solo developer, Space Cats Tactics brings together the nerve-wracking battles of turn-based strategy games and the powerful epic stories of space opera.

Combining grid- and turn-based tactical combat (as seen in games like XCOM and Divinity: Original Sin) and inside-ship crew management (like in games such as FTL and Star Command Galaxies), in Space Cats Tactics you will have to be on your toes and think every step very carefully!
