Looking for a few playtesters for CATCULATED DEBT. It runs directly in your browser—no download required.

Even 10–20 minutes of feedback is useful. A full run is around 1–1½ hours if you'd like to test the whole game.

Play here: [https://lordz-game-production.itch.io/catculated-debt]

You owe a Siamese gangster cat one trillion dollars. Fix sabotaged equations, build a tiny feline accounting department, fight off criminal kittens and survive increasingly fraudulent interest charges. CATCULATED DEBT is a pixel-art comedy puzzle/management game where every correct equation earns cash—but whether you spend it on upgrades or hand it over to Mr. Meezer is up to you. Features


Playtest build Please tell me your completion time, anything confusing or broken, your favourite/least favourite part, and the one thing you would change.

  • Fix increasingly chaotic equations
  • Hire Calculator, Security, Milkman, Banker and Sleepy Kittens
  • Build your workplace from a cardboard desk into a Corporate Catplex
  • Discover Gold, Diamond and Black Ledger equations
  • Survive four milestone boss audits
  • Recover diary notes revealing why you supposedly owe $1 trillion
  • Replay bosses and cinematics
  • Approximately 1–1½ hours for a first complete run

  • Put controls on the page. At minimum: Mouse — click equation reels Enter — change selected reel Space — +10 after Tens Key upgrade 1–4 — select equation U — upgrades D — debt payment M — milk P/Esc — pause

Hi LordZ Game Production, CATCULATED DEBT’s browser-based format and your specific questions about completion time, confusing or broken elements, favourite and least favourite parts make it a very good fit for structured community testing.


I’m a solo developer from South Africa and recently built Iconic Nexus, a new platform where indie developers can list projects, create testing campaigns and specify exactly what feedback they need. Members earn credits by testing other projects and can use those credits to receive feedback on their own.


The platform is brand new, so I’m looking for a few founding developers who can help shape it. If you’re interested, I’d be happy to personally help you set up CATCULATED DEBT as an early project and testing campaign.

Hi, I played your game. Here is a video recording of me doing so: 

I really liked the corrupt accountant vibe i got from the game. I struggled a bit with the mechanics. I really hated that I had to defend my self all the time, it mad it so i had no time to read the descriptions of the diffrent upgrades. 


I also have a game. You can find it here if you want to play it: https://simenhs.itch.io/hexatown If you do,  it would be a big help if you could record yourself while doing so. 

thank you 

I understand I will work on the game

v1.1.1 is now live!

Thanks to recent playtesting, I fixed:

  • correct equations occasionally not registering
  • Calculator Kittens interfering with the player

I’m looking for a few fresh testers for the new version.

Browser game, no download required. Even 10–20 minutes is useful.
