Paws & Phasers
Dog vs Cat Arcade Shooter
$1.99 · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
New: three difficulty levels, eased early waves, dive-bombing squads, tractor beams, and Overdrive firepower. Defend Earth from the feline armada!
Earth's skies are under invasion — by CATS! Take the controls of the galaxy's most heroic starfighter as a fearless dog pilot and blast wave after wave of marching feline armadas in this neon retro arcade shooter.
CLASSIC ARCADE ACTION
Marching invaders that sweep wider and drop faster with every wave. Swarms of cyan scouts, magenta troopers, and orange brutes descend on Earth — hold the line, wave after wave, and chase the high score.
THE ARMADA FIGHTS BACK
Dive squads swoop out of formation to strafe you with bombs. Watch for the tractor beam: get caught and a UFO cat will steal one of your lives and tow your fighter away. Rescue a captured wingman and you'll fly with twin-volley fire until you're hit again.
OVERDRIVE POWER-UP
Grab the golden bone for 8 seconds of triple-shot, double-rate Overdrive firepower — but beware: the armada ENRAGES, marching and bombing faster while your guns burn hot.
LIVING INVADERS
Every alien cat is alive with animated marching limbs, flailing claws, horns, and spikes that grow fiercer with each wave.
DYNAMIC SOUNDTRACK
A five-track synthwave playlist crossfades seamlessly through every battle — plus chunky laser, explosion, and meow arcade sound effects.
CHOOSE YOUR CHALLENGE
Three difficulty levels — Easy, Medium, and Hard — with eased early waves so new pilots can learn the ropes and veterans can push for glory. Switch any time from the settings menu.
PLAY YOUR WAY
Steer by dragging, with arrow keys, or with a game controller. Auto-fire is on by default, or switch to manual fire and blast away with the on-screen FIRE button. All progress and settings are saved automatically.
AND ON THE BIG SCREEN
Paws & Phasers also runs on Apple TV with full controller support — the same arcade battle, parallax icon included, on your living room TV.
