The first game from SuperAunthenti Co., Catly’s trailer left X users questioning how it secured a Game Awards spot and promotion by big-name influencers, such as Pokimane and Ninja. The studio’s co-founder, Kevin Yeung, also launched TenthPlanet, a game company focused on Web3, NFTs, digital ownership, and blockchain-based games. In 2022, his studio reportedly planned to launch two blockchain games and sunk $2.5 million into a cat-themed project called Alien Meow.
