Good Meowning all,

Wanted to share the results of the Next Fest and thank everyone who gave the game a try and wishlisted it! The results are probably better than I expected as I had stopped doing any marketing since I released the demo. Steam post image

In fact once I released the demo it was quite a weight off my shoulders as I had got something essentially close to complete out. The original plan was to just release it without the wave cap and with some more polish because to develop me I really needed proper game feedback but never really got much.

After some deep thought though I have decided I will push back the release date and flesh the game out more as I believe it still has potential but it's lacking in polish. The game was to release with exactly the features described on the main page but here is what you can expect from this pushed back release:

  • an actual tutorial that takes you through the basics

  • a basic but thought out story about a cat on his adventures around the universe.

  • at least 2 minigames

  • more modes that you'd typically see in an idle games such as boss rushes, towers, etc.

  • revamped skill system as currently one is quite janky.

  • in game shop (not real currency) where you can buy specific unique items to help curve RNG.

  • More unique items! there were only 3 in the demo.

Also a reminder there are no plans to add P2W in this game or MTX and there still never will be. I was trying to create a game that mimics an idle game without the P2W. Hopefully that has not disappointed anyone. Enjoy the summer! I will see you again in the fall.
