The premise, in the publisher's words
Mewgenics is a 2026 tactical role-playing roguelike life simulation video game developed by Edmund McMillen and Tyler Glaiel. The gameplay revolves around the process of breeding cats that assume character classes and sending them out on adventures based on a series of tactical combats set up on procedurally-generated grids. Originally announced by Team Meat in 2012 as a follow-up to Super Meat Boy, the game experienced a protracted production cycle that led to a state of development hell, before being cancelled and subsequently reacquired by McMillen for development with Glaiel in 2018. Mewgenics was released via the digital distribution platform Steam on February 10, 2026.
