Gameplay video:

1.5 IDLE mode (Announcement)

I'm happy to report that development of IDLE-mode for Caterpillarnoid is almost complete. The update will be released at the end of May.

It's a classic arcanoid-like but with an automatic paddle. You don't have to hit the ball, just buy upgrades and smash bricks/robots. Manually you can shoot from the paddle and change the direction of the ball. Bricks of different colors are used to buy different upgrades. There are bosses that you have to destroy in a limited time. Achievements, prestige, etc.

First trailer (performance testing, in-game rate of fire will be lower):
