Hello everyone!
After our previous update regarding difficulty, we have kept working to addess your feeback and make it real.
For those players struggling, Easy mode has been tuned down a bit in the first waves, so you can build up your defenses! You will get more sushi than before, for you to have more turrets and walls as the enemies build stronger.
Well, we accept the challenge! Now enemies scale up with more Armor and Shield than before, even those that didn't have them.
Our itamae has been working on the recipe, to improve your experience in late game. Lags and freezes should be over for you!
Many of you requested to be able to use more coins in the gacha machine. Now you can choose between using 1, 5, 10 or 20 coins to increase your legendary drop rate up to +65%!
As we roll up this update, the previous update texts are still only in English and Spanish. We will be getting the translation done as quickly as we can, and update the game again with the texts localized in all supported languages.
Please let us know what you think of these changes!
Grab your chopsticks and attack!

Hello again Sushi Fanatics!
We've been rolling maki all weekend, and we're happy to have you give things a taste. As we mentioned after release last week, we wanted to address player feedback on both ends of the spectrum.
Fear not, for we've added 2 new difficulties (and 2 new achievements) for those who demand a challenge. Hard Mode is available by starting a new run, and Nightmare Mode will unlock after beating Hard Mode. These modes impact enemy HP, damage dealt to Sushi Cat, amount of sushi dropped when defeated, gacha coin drop rate, and poison damage. We recommend having a max Talent Tree before trying Nightmare!
We have added more subtle changes for players struggling. Most notably, we have added an Easy Mode. Beyond that, we have added 2 new Tutorial Tips that will display at the start of the game. And players who are starting out will be required to buy 1 level of Increased Starting Sushi on the Talent Tree before being able to buy any of the other Tier 1 talents.
Please note that for now, in an attempt to get this update out ASAP, the new tips texts are only in English and Spanish. We will be getting the translation done as quickly as we can, and update the game again with the texts localized in all supported languages.
Beyond these changes to difficulty, we have fixed an issue reported with the Cyrillic font.
Please let us know what you think of these changes! And we will continue to work on other bug fixes and suggestions that have been reported, now that these new modes are out.
Cheers and good eating!

Hello Friends!
We're reading your comments, and really appreciate how almost everyone has something nice to say about our squishy blue guy. We also see that there are 2 clear groups of people: those who think the game is way too hard and those who think the game is way too easy.
For those who think the game is too easy:
We understand where you're coming from... and our design philosophy was to make the game on the easier side, to appeal to the general Sushi Cat audience more than expert tower defense players. The original Sushi Cat games are all simple, casual games (including Cat-A-Pult), and we wanted to keep a similar vibe. However, players do need to feel a challenge... they do need to feel like the upgrades provide value... they do need to have some reason to replay. So we'll go back and take a look at what's feasible to add/change to give folks more.
For those who think the game is too hard:
This camp, who are likely Sushi Cat fans but not as much tower defense experience... might not be familiar with this type of tower defense, where the goal is not really to build up defenses, but to build a maze and combine all 4 paths into 1. We've seen people focus on unlocking new towers as their first Talents, when the #1 most important early game upgrade is more starting sushi (this is why it's inexpensive and on the left-side of the Talent tree). We do not think we need to make the game easier, but maybe we can add more to the Hint pool between waves, to push players to try different strategies that could lead to longer, more successful runs.
Here is a suggested starting layout once you have purchased 1 starting sushi upgrade (200 total starting sushi). Note that pathing might vary a bit due to the RNG in the base map layout.
As you get more sushi, continue to build up the right side, then the back side until only 1 square of Sushi Cat is open, and continue to build a swirl pattern counter-clockwise out and around. I hope that helps!
Thank you again for being excited for a new Sushi Cat game. We hear you, and we'll improve the experience for all players. Expect a patch next week!
Enjoy some nigiri and hand rolls,

Hello everyone!
Our favorite round, bouncy hero is back, and the sushi buffet is under attack 🚨🙀🚨
Waves of enemies are coming, and it is up to you to help Sushi Cat protect the food he loves most. Place your towers, plan your defenses, and watch the chaos unfold as the battlefield fills with color, strategy, and plenty of sushi-saving moments.
For many players, Sushi Cat was a small but joyful part of the Flash era. This new adventure keeps that same playful spirit while introducing a brand new tower defense challenge.
Whether you are returning to a familiar world or meeting Sushi Cat for the first time, we hope this new chapter brings the same smiles, surprises, and ridiculous moments that made the original games so memorable.
🍣 The sushi needs protecting.
🐱 Sushi Cat is counting on you.
