Why I Built a Stress-Free Offline Bubble Shooter at My Kitchen Table (No Timers, No Data Tracking)

After sharing my story about getting laid off, divorced, and starting my solo studio Shivaya from my kitchen table, several people asked what kind of apps I’ve been building late at night.

Today, I want to introduce one of my favorite projects: Mega Giant Cat: Bubble Shooter.

Why Another Bubble Shooter?

When you're raising a toddler alone on a tight budget and coding until midnight, you quickly realize how exhausting modern mobile games can be. So many casual games rely on anxiety-inducing countdown timers, limited stamina bars, and mandatory internet connections just to play a 3-minute round.

I wanted to create the exact opposite: a cozy, comforting pocket escape.

What Makes Mega Giant Cat Different

• Zero Stress Pacing: There are no nerve-wracking clocks ticking down. You can play one shot, put your phone down to check on your kid, and pick it right back up.
• Wholesome Giant Cat Companion: A giant adorable cat reacts to your combos and celebrates your victories—pure visual dopamine after a long day.
• True Offline Play: Designed to run lightweight and completely offline. No Wi-Fi or cellular data required.
• Privacy Respecting: Zero personal data collected or shared with third parties.

As a solo developer still learning and iterating every night at the kitchen table, I’d love to hear any feedback on the level difficulty, booster mechanics, or UI. Thanks for playing! 🐱🫧
