Lions and new Gold system

All newsPlayers around this dateRead on Steam

Hello dear cat-friends today we want to go into little more detail about big update we have introduced in Ultra Mega Cats. 

Lion Coalition


We enable our Cat Heroes to use Lion Coalitions of Aspects. Lion is king of all cats (although some might have different opinions) so his Aspects are based around healing, damage reductions and all things regal. Here are some examples how choosing Lion Aspects might buff our ultra mega cats abilities : 


King of the Fighters - Your secondary deal 30% more damage to enemies with Full HP. This enable to single out unharmed enemies to inflict huge damage - especially with Kagero;s Katana Slash or Clint’s Shotgun. What’s more, the Epic version of this upgrade can trigger Lion’s Roar - Your character makes a terrifying warcry which terrifies enemies in 10 meters radius for 2 seconds. Terrified enemies run away from you for the period of the status.

Cooldown Cat is another cool Lion upgrade. It’s passive that reduces all cooldowns. Very handy for a lot of builds that rely on abilities with long cooldowns.  

Return of the King this ability is exactly this - your king hero returns. Its legendary aspect is hard to come by but its effect is really huge ! Upon death this skill will revive you with 5 seconds of initial invulnerability. Can be revived once every 3 rooms. First hit after being revived deals 500% of damage to the enemy. Hero can't be revived in any other way. It’s truly ultra mega to be able to fight one more time on any day. 

Gold upgrades 

We also introduced a new gold system. Now gold shop stations will randomly give you a choice of 3 permanent and 3 temporary upgrades. What’s more, every upgrade bought increases the cost of the next purchase. We also added new upgrades such as : 

Plush Bear - is an amazing permanent upgrade that gives you +25% damage but only while you are below 50% HP.

Shapeshift Amber - is something to make hoarding nexus chips faster as it gives you a chance to spawn boss’s reward chest in connectors between arenas. It expires after 3 rooms.

What’s next ? 

We are working on expanding Ultra Mega Cats experience even further. In the next months we will be adding even new more content such as : 

  • Music and audio update 

  • Even more upgrades that can be bought with gold along with hero-specific upgrades tailored to the hero you have chosen to fight any cat enemies 

  • Changes to Biolab enemies 

So stay tuned as we want to push those changes in next updates in 2025 !
