Meet Catly: the bizarre "AI slop" cat game that snuck into The Game Awards

SuperAuthenti's new game Catly .

This year's Game Awards brought us some highly anticipated trailers like The Witcher 4 and Elden Ring Nightreign yet one promo in particular caused an unexpected stir – cat-based open-world adventure, Catly. With its strange AI-esque visuals and distinct shift in quality and tone compared to the other AAA releases, gamers were naturally a little confused as to how it snuck into the coveted Game Awards announcements.

While there's no strict formula for making the best video games, Catly stood out like a sore thumb leading some fans to speculate it could be an elaborate pro-NFT/Web3 project. It shouldn't come as a surprise, as the game's official Steam page reeks of AI, but for now, it's mere speculation. With unofficial evidence wracking up it seems Catly could be much more than just an innocent moggy adventure.
