Carlito's Nightmare

This lazy cat is having a very bad dream. . .

Carlito’s Nightmare is a casual indie shoot ‘em ‘up with roguelike elements where you play as Carlito, a lazy persian cat, having the worst nightmare of his life. Oh, what a nightmare!

Where do cats go when they dream?

Survive against the increasingly terrifying monsters of various shapes and sizes that swarm at you, intent on ruining your cat nap. By defeating them and leveling up, you gain abilities that make you transform into a bullet hell and become their worst nightmare.
