Fantastic game! Really well done gameplay that feels great to play, I loved the cute animals and the localization to my native language is awesome.

Really fun and charming little metroidvania, with an incredibly cute cat.

it's cat planet but ur the cat in a robot suit

Kiki catchs the crazy mouse doctor!

Um metroidvania bem medíocre. Entretanto, tem uma partezinha legal, que é justamente uma seção em que o gatinho não usa seu robô e tem que atravessar os ambientes hostis com cuidado. Me fez ficar pensando que se tivesse mais Gato e menos Roboto talvez seria um jogo melhor.


Metroidvania corto y simpatico con graficos de Game Boy que aprovecha muy bien sus virtudes. Ojala algo mas de profundidad y un pelin mas de duracion, pero es muy bueno como experiencia corta.

Anárquico e criativo são as palavras perfeitas pra descrever Gato Roboto. Metroidvania que vangloria e repensa a era de 8bits de uma forma muito intrigante, sendo escrachado durante toda a jornada e reafirmando no final.

The Good:

-Solid controls
-Endearing writing and visual style

The Ok:

-Very short
-Annoying to backtrack

The Bad:

-Not much

Conclusion:
Gato Roboto is pretty much, as others have described it, Metroid Lite. It’s a clear homage to the series, both in terms of gameplay, setting, and even the abilities you gain. It’s actually pretty good in terms of that gameplay, and the controls are responsive. It’s a pretty easy game, but I had fun, especially with the bosses. Visually it’s very minimalistic, although it is very charming. My main annoyance is the fact that there is no fast travel system. This makes back travel extremely annoying, and after a while I just gave up. All the best metroidvanias have a system of teleportation (Hollow Knight, Symphony of the Night, SteamWorld Dig 2), and this one could’ve really benefitted from it. Other than that there’s not much to say, other than the fact that this game is extremely short. It’s a solid enough package, but there are much better games out there to get.

Absurdamente divertido e instigante. Simples, envolvente e localizado para o português.

Miautroid.

Pros:
- Controlas a una gatita.
- Esa gatita puede montarse en mechas.
- Esos mechas pueden destruir cualquier cosa que quiera hacer daño a la gatita.

Contras:
- El control del gato sin traje es un poco errático.
- Las mecánicas de combate son muy justitas, y solo se explotan contra los bosses.
- El diseño de escenarios es demasiado básico.

Short, easy, cute - we love a metroidvania. I guess I was expecting a little more with the flood of metroidvania's out there, and to stand out from the rest. It's cute pixel-art style can only take it so far, there was nothing dramatic or incredible that stood out compared to other metroidvania's. Anyway finished this in 2 hours, so take that as it is.

коротенькая метроидвания похожая на metroid zero mission

A cute lil game that's fun to play, but aesthetics aside I couldn't get a feel for the hook to the game. Neat and simple, if you're a hardcore Metroid fan I would assume this would be a nice love note to the genre.

divertido de pelotas y cortito

Full review on my website: https://www.nepikigaming.com/reviews/gato-roboto/

''I have not been overly positive about Gato Roboto this review, but that doesn’t mean it’s a bad game; it’s just not outstanding in a market oversaturated with Metroidvania games. The world is fun to explore, but it’s almost completely linear so I can praise this game more as a platformer/action game than the genre that many people like to instantly refer to when a game has a map system with levels you can revisit after you’ve gotten new abilities. I will give special credit to the game encouraging you to sequence break however, as that was pretty fun to do. The gameplay itself feels fluid overall, though I swear the main controllable cat and its mech have butter under their feet which made platforming more difficult than it should be at times. I really enjoyed the boss battles though; they’re simple, but do use patterns with at least one mechanic you’ve been using in that area. It’s a fun game and I definitely recommend it, but your expectations should be that you’re going to be playing a short, simple Metroid-inspired game.''

A perfectly fine rendition of a Metroid game, edited down into a 3-5 hour experience. Gato Roboto is cute, and if you enjoy the genre probably worth an evening, but I wouldn't call it a particularly memorable game.

I want to give this a four, but I feel like there just wasn't enough here to warrant a four. This was a fantastic little Metroid style game, and I felt so hungry for more. Will definitely re-play this in the near future due to it's rather short length.

Cute style, I absolutely love how all the different pallettes look. Also CAAAATS. Gameplay is alright, I guess. I'm not very good at metroidvanias and it shows as I was unable to get back into the game after taking a break for a week. I just kept dying.

While Only Being 3 Hours, Its Some Of The Best 3 Hours Of Game I Played


Little tiny metroidvania. Liked it. One decent sitting to finish. Could see myself revisiting down the line when I'm bored.

É divertidinho, é um jogo legal mas também não é grande coisa.

Um gato no robô, o que mais tu quer?
