Cat Town announced on September 17, 2026, that its latest update is now live. It adds a multiplayer fishing feature. Players can gather at a dock and cast their lines side by side without needing a boat [1]. The new feature arrives months after the studio’s April 2026 Egg Hunt on the Lake event, which offered a temporary fishing competition with leaderboard rewards like Bunny Ears and an Epic Egg Head hat [2]. Earlier this year, Cat Town also emphasized its integration with Base, aimed at simplifying the onchain experience by handling infrastructure [3]. Today’s update makes cooperative fishing a permanent part of Cat Town.

In Cat Town, a pixelated street scene shows a cat wearing a red visor walking and another cat skateboarding in front of shops labeled 'nCafe' and 'Curious Cat Books' during rainfall.

Cozy Pixel Art and Shared Fishing

Following the permanent addition of cooperative fishing, let’s dive into the art direction of Cat Town. Cat Town features a side-view pixel art style with blocky sprites and layered parallax backgrounds. The plump rounded cats roam past storefront signs and striped awnings, creating a lively yet cozy village atmosphere. It successfully captures that warm, lived-in everyday vibe akin to Stardew Valley, just with more cats.

Overall Player Sentiment

Commenters express their excitement about Cat Town, calling it awesome and stating that the game is on fire right now [4]. Some players appreciate the clear explanations in videos and commend the project for being perfect for cat lovers [5]. A handful of new users ask basic questions about getting started or whether the game is still active [6]. Overall, while the community displays enthusiasm and hope, the sentiment does seem rooted in general excitement rather than specific concerns or feedback [7].

Video comments were reviewed as well, showing a mix of hype and comments filled with crypto jargon, including repeated phrases like ‘to the moon’ and ‘let’s go’, which may indicate a level of orchestrated promotion rather than genuine engagement [8]

Despite the ongoing discussions about possible coordinated shilling, Cat Town’s token, Kibble, initially experienced a notable surge, outpacing many other gaming tokens. However, following the update announcement, Kibble’s movement appears less impressive now, raising questions about its sustainability. It is crucial to remain cautious about any perceived hype.

Cat Town Co-op Casting on the Fishing Dock

Now, regarding the new dock: while it allows players to fish together without a boat, it’s pretty straightforward. Players can simply sit on the wooden planks and cast their lines next to friends. A tweet showcasing the pixel art features two cat characters at the dock, labeled “krinklez,” along with one in a boat. The scene is certainly charming.

Reactions to the dock have been positive. One commenter remarked, “dock life looks inviting,” while another said, “Love this!” [9], [10]. YouTube sentiments align with this enthusiasm, with comments like, “Man whoever did this did an AWESOME job,” and “Count me in!!” [4], [11]. While the dock presents a simple addition, it transforms fishing into a social experience, a feature that adds value to Cat Town. However, one might wonder if this will retain players long-term.

The dock update comes while Cat Town still boasts a community of 2,250 YouTube subscribers and 2,600 Telegram members.

Game Asset Transfer and NFT Rewards

Documentation from a protocol that we found outlines rewards for a fishing game mode. These include items from the Guild Store, such as Guild Reward Chests containing gold, sushi, and a chance for xFISH. Season Skin Chests also offer a small chance for xFISH and a Molten Diver boat, both of which are tradable as NFTs.
