Instruction Manual
Mission Background
You are Comet, the second ever spacefaring feline after the legendary Felicette, the first cat in space. After years of rigorous training and consuming only the finest freeze-dried sardines, Comet was selected for a top-secret solo mission aboard the International Space Station.
Life was peaceful, just napping in zero gravity—until the hyperintelligent lab mice, test subjects in a behavioral enhancement experiment, staged a mutiny. They overloaded their enclosure, causing a massive explosion that scattered sharp debris across the station. Then, with their newly gained smarts and stolen supplies, they crafted jetpacks to roam the modules freely, cackling with tiny voices and leaving chaos in their wake.
Armed with only his white astro-suit, sharp reflexes, and a belly full of high-protein astro-kitty kibble (which, unfortunately, causes some gas), Comet must restore order, catch those rodents, and survive the perils of space to complete the mission.
Gameplay
You control Comet, who can only propel himself forward by releasing carefully aimed bursts of internal pressure, and twist around by awkwardly squirming. That’s right—your only way to move is to fart thrust your way through the station corridors.
Avoid shattered glass shards from the blown-up enclosure—they’ll tear through your suit and cost you health. Watch out for floating scientific equipment: you can bounce off it if your paws hit it, but you will take damage if it bonks your head!
You start with 5 hearts of health. Every 5th level contains a special heart item to refill your health. Catch those mice before they spread the rebellion beyond containment!

Notes
Cat-stronaut PANIC! is like Asteroids - except that the world doesn't need another Asteroids clone.
