    In keeping with its established "Caturday" information release schedule, the final Mew-Genics character has been revealed by Team Meat. Butch (above) appears to be a fairly nefarious dude, one who's "into some shady stuff" and participates in zero legal activities of any kind. Given what Team Meat's previous games were like, we're kind of terrified of its definition of "shady stuff."Now that Butch and the other four characters have all been revealed, Team Meat will begin "teasing aspects of game design, music, the games many features and its release platforms," according to its official blog. We're just hoping this whole thing turns out to be based on The Aquabats' classic The Cat With Two Heads.

    Tracy, the fourth character Team Meat revealed for its upcoming game Mew-Genics, was described as a girl that "likes cats... but isn't a big fan of you." Tracy's teaser image showed the wall of cages she seemed to keep her cats in, hopefully insinuating that she's a vet and not a hoarder.Team Meat unveiled a few characters over the past few weeks for its "game about cats," including Frank (who has head problems), Mr. Tinkles and Dr. Beanies. Another character reveal is planned for next Caturday.

    The third of five teaser images for Team Meat's latest project, Mew-Genics, is Frank. Frank has been diagnosed by his creators with "head problems," but we think he should be re-evaluated for sweat problems, hunchback problems, tooth problems and... is that a tail? Then yes, tail problems, too.Previous teaser images show characters with fewer physical ailments, but probably just as many issues: Mr. Tinkles and Dr. Beanies. We're guessing Mr. Tinkles has depression and bladder control problems, and Dr. Beanies has "eating cats" problems. Those are just guesses, of course.

Mr. Tinkles was revealed last week via the Team Meat Twitter. This Caturday (Saturday, sorry), we see Dr. Beanies, a worried-looking scientist with a cute cat in his lab, introduced on the Team Meat blog.Check out Dr. Beanies below, and stay tuned to Team Meat next Caturday (SATURDAY, damn it) for a new teaser.
