What’s new

  • Core gameplay - multiplayer. The main loop now runs in a networked session rather than local stubs.

  • Hot-join & graceful exits. We handle a remote player connecting, disconnecting, or timing out without imploding the session.

  • ESC menu (co-op controls). Invite/kick a friend, see their status, and view their in-game name.

  • Interactive objects over the net. Doors, switches, dig spots, and other interactables now behave correctly for remote clients.

  • Weapon & Junkit Shops (with unlock rules). You’ll start seeing progression gates (earn it, then buy it).

  • Pop-up(s). When you unlock something, the game celebrates it.

  • New cat animations. Smoother, sassier, more expressive - because style matters.

  • Lots of fixes. Crashes tamed, race conditions shooed away, desyncs declawed.

Studio news (meow-stones)

  • We picked a Mansion prototype as our first "home base" slice to focus the build (think cozy-spooky rooms, clear progression hooks).

  • We entered Blue Ocean’s Rising Tide and placed #6 out of ~400 projects - huge thanks for cheering us on!

  • We’re also hopping into animal-themed showcases and fests where The Whisker Watch obviously belongs. 🐱

What we’re working on right now

  • Content - more weapons, junkits, perks and EVERYTHING!

  • Balance & readability for Weapons and Junkits in a networked context.

  • More QoL in the co-op flow: clearer invites, status hints, and failsafes if someone’s Wi-Fi naps.

Other:

  • Approximately 10-12 trillion other various fixes and improvements this time.

  • New bugs of course, a lot of.

Wish list us on Steam and hop into our community - it helps a ton and your feedback shapes our priorities more than you think.

Until next time—watch the whiskers, trust the paws. 🐾
