CatStronauts Mission Accomplished!
8 months ago – Tue, Aug 12, 2025 at 12:06:05 PM

The CatStronauts crowdfunding campaign sure did live up to the game, with an excellent launch but its own emergency situation when tariffs hit. After all that, this campaign is now complete! Every order that we can ship from our warehouse, has shipped. All backers should have their rewards by now, except those who didn't confirm their address (hint, hint).

If your rewards were lost, damaged, or defective, please reach out to us by e-mail at [email protected] so we can make it right. 

Since our fulfillment is done, this will be our last update for the Kickstarter. However, we may still post updates about the line and/or future Atlas Games Kickstarters. If you'd like to opt out of additional notifications on this project, follow these steps:

  • Navigate to SETTINGS, then NOTIFICATIONS
  • Scroll to the PROJECTS YOU'VE BACKED section
  • UNCHECK this project

Thank you again for your support. We hope you have at least as much fun playing CatStronauts as we had making it. And if you enjoyed it, please share the word with your friends and socials!

CatStronauts Arrival & Pawsome FX Web App
9 months ago – Mon, Jul 07, 2025 at 02:29:21 PM

Prepare for Lunch!

CatStronauts has arrived at our warehouse! We'll start packing orders this week, and get them sent out to you ASAP.

It's been a long journey for our intrepid CatStronauts, but we're in the last leg of the crowdfunding campaign. THANK YOU for your support!

Pawsome FX Web App

Today I also get to reveal the new SOUND EFFECTS WEB APP for CatStronauts! Try it out now at pawsomefx.atlas-games.com

It was tough, redirecting my attention from a long boring list of admin tasks, and instead forcing myself to create a super fun and cute app for CatStronauts, which I then got to "playtest" with my own kids. But I purrsevered! ;P

The result is an app that adds the parade to your CatStronauts game win! Yes, really. There's a brass band and confetti, even! Plus sound effects for alerts, entering the escape pod, and launching. It's the perfect balance of dramatic and not-overly-annoying-to-parents (I hope).

Thank you backers for giving me this excuse to have some fun, and I hope you enjoy it as much as my kiddos did!

Catstronauts Now Crossing the Pacific!
10 months ago – Mon, Jun 09, 2025 at 09:05:45 AM

After long uncertainty, we're relieved to confirm that a 20-foot shipping container loaded with Catstronauts and the Fish Finder Satellite Expansion is on board a vessel crossing the Pacific Ocean! It's aboard the container ship NHAVA SHEVA, and you can check on the progress of its voyage yourself at vesselfinder.com. After the ship docks at Tacoma, Washington, our container will be unloaded and sent along to Minnesota by rail.

Our freight forwarder says July 9th is the expected delivery date at our warehouse. While shipments rarely arrive on the projected date, we are confident that the games should be in our hands by the middle of July, and we'll get to work sending backer rewards as soon as we can after that.

Because things now look more definite, we're going to go ahead and charge credit cards in Backerkit for shipping, taxes, and any changes/add-ons that folks have made. If your card has any problem, you should see an e-mail from Backerkit and there will be plenty of time to fix things.

Thank you for supporting CatStronauts!
