If, like me, you are the proud owner of formerly stray cats, you know the havoc they can cause to a well-kept house: the shredded upholstery of the couch, the spilled house plants, the random toilet paper roll attacks.

While a nightmare for me, this must be thrilling for my awful cats. That’s the concept behind Chris Chung’s *[Catlateral Damage](http://www.catlateraldamage.com/?ref=killscreen.com)*, the “first-person destructive cat simulator” that lets you terrorize an otherwise orderly house from the perspective of a mischievous meower. Yes, it’s genius, but I suspect he is the unfortunate victim of cats gone wild.

[Over at Gamasutra today](http://www.gamasutra.com/blogs/ChrisChung/20140207/210275/Creating%5FRooms%5Ffor%5FCats%5Fto%5FPlay%5FIn.php?ref=killscreen.com), Chung has posted about how he constructed the rooms for you to lay waste. There’s a lot of technical jargon about texture mapping and wall modeling, but in addition it offers a fascinating behind-the-scenes peek at how 3D structures such as houses are built and populated with doors and windows and armoires and so forth.

And to think: he goes through such intricate pains of tidying up this place so that a small furry animal can have an obstacle course. You and me both, brother.
