My entire life is dealing with black cats causing chaos in my life
Why would I want to play that in video game form

This game has made me unbelievably happy.
It's one of the few games recently I've been able to let myself play for the joy of playing.

Very happy to see this. I have complex feelings about the game but it's always nice to see a success story. Very glad for their success.
So is this game basically what people thought Stray was gonna be before it turned out to be more of an immersive light horror puzzle game? I haven't been keeping up with it.
100k units in two days is nice for an indie launch for sure.

It's much more free-form go about as a cat and do small side quests by doing typical cat things.
Despite it being a bit janky and awkward at times and also very short unless you do all the side stuff what I really enjoyed about it was the good vibes. There's a lot of positivity in the game and feel good interactions between the different animals.
And I'm on the other side of the fence where I'm really glad Stray is what it is. Less interested in this sandbox (litterbox?) game.
I'm sorry but Nintendo is so fucking stupid for not releasing a Nintendogs / Nintencats on Switch.
My daughter absolutely loved this game so hats off to the devs. I'll have to give it a shot soon.
Hadn't heard of this game until now. This kind of looks like a more sandbox-y take on something like Untitled Goose Game; play a cute critter, and mess with people. I do wonder if this has an end-goal, like UGG did.
I'll give it a go. I'm pretty worn out lately and I could use a game that isn't CONSTANT HIGH-STRESS ACTION for a change.
I don't think there's anything wrong with either approach, to be clear. I just feel like a lot of people thought Stray would be a "cat simulator" game whereas it's really not that. It's a perfectly fine little game in a vacuum.
I am pretty suprised they havent yet. I wonder if its cuz they have no devs to do so lol
I'm also surprised they never made an Android/Iphone version of the game. Seems like the type of game that could do very well on mobile.
They largely dropped mobile efforts because even Mario kart wasn't making *that much* money.
HOWEVER, I have no idea how they and Niantic ended up on pikmin as their big crossover walking IP after pokemon, where the main reward is dressing up the pikmin and "Take your nintendogs for walks" was RIGHT THERE
This really is one of the greatest compliments you can give a game. 😊
Totally deserved, aside from some mechanical roughness (ask me about the time I got trapped on a pipe stuck in a mid-jump animation or the times I've fallen off a ledge because reasons) it's really been such a joy. Fun characters, goofy situations, and I really feel for the cat whenever I screw up enough that someone has to carry me outside. LEMMEGOLEMMEGOLEMMEGO I JUST WANTED FEESH
You need to watch more Wholesome Directs. :P Every game is one or more of: witches, cats, cafes, mail delivery.
Though it's true you don't see that many cat platformers (catformers?).
Beat it in one night. Even with the Jank I had such a fun time. Definitely recommend it if you love or have cats
Evidently People want to play as spiteful animals. The dogs downfall is being too nice.
Glad to hear it's doing well. Will definitely pick it up at some point.
"Lost, alone, and separated from family, a stray cat must untangle an ancient mystery to escape a long-forgotten cybercity and find the way home."
That blurb reads exactly like linear story-driven puzzle adventure game, not sandbox cat shennanigans. The cat is also wearing a backpack accompanied by a drone so clearly there's something different going on there besides cat stuff.
I don't know what ever gave off that impression that it would be a cat simulator where you just go off and do cat things.

played a little bit of this last night and it put a big smile on my face. Nothing brings me more joy than to see a game do something creative, maybe not 100% pull it off (game does seem pretty janky) but audiences still discover it and appreciate it.
From a gameplay perspective cats are great climbers so you can make it a platformer. Maybe a dog game where you solve puzzles and ask humans for help, my little dog gives me a stare and points to said problem, smart girl.
