Have an adopted animal? We have something for you!

Author: \ August 27, 2020 \ Announcements \ 0 Comments

We’ve had banners promoting dog adoption from the very beginning in Top Run. Today we’d like to expand on that and from now on we’ll be giving in-game Cybervaders arcade for free to anyone who’ll send us a photo of their adopted animal (not only dogs!)

Where?

In mobile version of Top Run, both Android and iOS. Cybervaders is already available to everyone in the console/PC version.

What do I need to do?

Not much!

  • Send us a photo of your adopted animal (dog, cat, cow, anyone!) on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, Lena’s Instagram or just email it to us. We’d also appreciate a little backstory, but it’s absolutely not required.
  • Wait. We’ll get back to you with a code to Cybervaders!

Why do you do it?

Because why not? It may not boost animal adoption rates, but we’re glad to reward people who adopt animals in any way we can!

Summing Up 2019

Author: \ December 31, 2019 \ General \ 0 Comments

2019 was a year when we realized that Katata Games is real!

So in 2019 our lives did a 180 degree turn. We can’t actually say it was because of the year 2019. We started studying gamedev and making Top Run back in 2017.

In 2019 we’ve continued to study programming and art but it was also the year when we first saw all our hard work starting to pay off.

Top Run has been downloaded over 170,000 times since its release on February 1, 2019. It was also Game of the Day on the App Store worldwide and got into Play Store Indie Corner, 

Thank you all for being with us and supporting us in this year and years before!

We can promise you even more cool news in 2020.

We wish you all to achieve the success you dream of in 2020, and we can’t wait to see the results of that!

Update on katata.games

Author: \ December 18, 2019 \ News \ 0 Comments

Hi! We’ve abandoned our website for a while, you might have noticed that it hasn’t been updated since February.

It’s not because we’re not into game development anymore, quite the opposite. We’ve been so busy updating Top Run and pursuing other ideas that we just had to no time to update our site.

It’s not how we want to keep it, so we’ve updated our news feed with all updated which have happened since February and we’ll start writing new blog posts soon.

We’ve also updated the design a bit to keep it up to date.

Finally, we are working on a new game right now and we plan to update you with our progress here, in our blog.

Thank you for following us!
