This is a "Inverted" Space Invaders game made by Henry Gosuen. Be in the space with tons of problem: No Gas No Ammo No Lucky Tons of bullets chasing you Manic Shooter bosses "Perhaps a less crazed difficultly level would have allowed Space Spacy to chime with a wider audience." - PocketGamer >Perhaps... but I trust you, player! - Henry Gosuen * PocketGamer's Bronze Award game * App of the day on AppZoom * AppStore featured in 118 countries "It’s heavy on risk, doused in a kind of hardcore gaming brutality, but has a compelling edge that will have you coming back for more." 7/10 - Craig Grannell [PocketGamer] "A space game for lovers of retro games" 7.8/10 - Anna Grace [AppZoom] 9.0/10 User review "I also have to mention the humour in this game. It is something we (unfortunately) rarely see today (...) Looking at the game as a whole, I can say it is a complete and good product. It has an innovative gameplay, employs the device’s hardware in an unusual manner and executes it perfectly." - Sid James [Soomla] A game single developed by Henry Gosuen 「warchild14」 Awesome music by: VHS Glitch

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Cat Simulator 2 at 4.7 against Space Spacy's 3.5. Cat Simulator 2 also leads on update cadence (every 2 months vs every 67 months) and ratings volume (17K vs 2). Space Spacy's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (100% vs 72%). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Space Spacy sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Cat Simulator 2 sells 9 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Cat Simulator 2 holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Cat Simulator 2 has 17K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Space Spacy's written reviews are positive against 72% of Cat Simulator 2's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Space Spacy ships an update every 67 months, Cat Simulator 2 every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 2, 2026 and October 14, 2026 respectively.
