About This Demo

Mine, choose your upgrades, and build your way out. Space Cat Digger combines timed expeditions, resource management and automation. Play as Milo, a stranded cosmonaut cat, and make every run count.

Mine deeper. Make every second count.

Dig your own tunnels, uncover mineral deposits and bring your haul back to the outpost. Decide how far to venture and which resources to collect before time runs out.

Choose the upgrades for your run

Gain XP as you mine, then choose from three temporary upgrades. Improve your mining speed, boost your equipment or pick a rarer bonus. Shape your expedition around the choices you make.

Build, transform and automate

Use your resources to unlock and build machines that help you mine, process materials and automate parts of your production. Plan their placement, organize your routes and find the setup that suits your playstyle.

Return stronger. Aim for a higher score.

Every expedition is a chance to test a new strategy, improve your equipment and make your next run more efficient. Balance exploration and production to get the most out of the time available.

Help Milo get home

After his spaceship crashes, Milo wakes up alone on an unknown planet. Mine its resources, repair what remains of his ship and find a way to escape… while something strange begins to awaken beneath the surface.

What is included in the Demo?

The Demo lets you experience Space Cat Digger from the beginning through the end of Tier 2, introducing the game's core mechanics and gameplay loop. A playthrough lasts around 1–2 hours, with some replayability if you want to try different approaches and improve your runs.

You'll discover the first simple automation mechanics and play relatively short runs built around mining, upgrades, resource management and production. The full game expands on this foundation with new upgrades, greater difficulty, more advanced mechanics and automation, and a deeper exploration of the story and lore.
