Cats and Seek: Kyoto News

Hello everyone!

Time flies and here we are in March 2025! Here's a little update on what's been happening since January.

[h3]Cats and Seek: Tokyo[/h3]


As of today, 4 levels are ready to play! You can explore Asakusa, Akihabara, Ueno Park, and Shibuya. Estu is currently working on the final level, making a total of 5 levels in Cats and Seek: Tokyo. One level will be available for free with all its achievements, while the other 4 will be part of the DLC for those who want extra content. The DLC is available to wishlist now!

[h3]Cats and Seek: Toge Land[/h3]
Back in January, we collaborated with Toge Productions to release Cats and Seek: Toge Land to celebrate their anniversary. We're so happy to see that the game has received 189 reviews so far! Thank you so much to everyone who played and left a review 🥰

[h3]Prototype[/h3]
We also tested an early prototype for another game series we're working on. So far, we've received more than 60 feedback submissions through the survey included in the prototype. Thank you so much to everyone who took the time to play and share your thoughts! If you're curious and want to try it out, you can check it out on our Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/posts/new-prototype-120037282


[h3]Patreon[/h3]
Thank you to the 180+ members who have joined our Patreon! We've been sharing sneak peeks of upcoming levels there, and we're so grateful for your support.

We also received a suggestion from one of our players about community localization. Currently, all cat descriptions are only available in English because there are so many of them, and professional translation would be too expensive for us. Meanwhile, AI translations often produce weird or awkward phrases.

I'm now looking into ways to set up a community localization system that would be easy for everyone to use. Once I figure it out, I'll share the details on Patreon. And if you're interested in helping, please join us! Our Patreon is free to join.


[h3]Events[/h3]
This March, we're joining two online events: The Days of Ramadan and the Women's Day Sale. Make sure to visit the events and check out many other awesome games! Oh, and Giant Cat is on discount too!

Hello everyone!

After a lot of thought, we’ve decided to start a newsletter on Patreon. With just the two of us managing everything, we figured this would be a cozy way to stay connected and keep you in the loop.

[h3]Why a newsletter instead of Discord like other developers?[/h3]
Since it’s only the two of us, and we don’t have a community manager, keeping up with a live platform like Discord would be tough. A newsletter felt like the perfect balance, an easy way to stay connected that doesn’t require a lot of extra time or energy from either side but still keeps us in touch.

[h3]Why Patreon instead of a traditional newsletter?[/h3]
We tried comparing different options, and Patreon actually had all the features we needed. No follower limits, post caps, or other restrictions. It just makes things simple!

[h3]Will there be exclusive content on Patreon?[/h3]
Not right now, this will just be a place for us to share our game development progress. So, feel free to join us on the free tier to stay updated!

But If you have any cool ideas for exclusive content you’d like to see, feel free to let us know!

So come join us on Patreon to keep up with our game development journey .
