Shanghai-dubbed Suspense Puzzle Game "Cat Carried Butterfly"–Store Page Now Live

Dear Players,

This is Baobaoding STUDIO, an independent game team founded by a Shanghai-based husband-and-wife pair. After over a year of hard work, the Steam store page for Cat Carried Butterfly—our debut game we’ve been striving to develop—is finally live today! We sincerely thank you all for your continuous attention and support.



Cat Carried Butterfly is a suspense puzzle game themed around Chinese supernatural folklore. Centered on showcasing Shanghai dialect features and Shanghai-style regional culture, it will take you back to old Shanghai in the early 20th century. Immerse yourself in the intoxicating, profound atmosphere of that era, and follow the female protagonist "Lv Ping" to unravel layers of mystery and dive into a bizarre adventure.



🎮 Game Features:
🖌️ Layer-by-layer hand-painted retro pixel art style
👻 Side-scrolling exploration + light environmental puzzles + psychological horror elements
📖 Adapted from real historical events
🗣️ Full Shanghai dialect dubbing by local Shanghai voice actors

The inspiration behind Cat Carried Butterfly is quite simple! Once, we happened to pass by Shanghai’s real-life Longchang Apartment. Its intricate corridor structure is filled with traces of the times, and we were deeply drawn to the infinite vitality of life extending from such a limited space—this sparked a strong resonance and creative drive in us. Most of the game’s scenes and plot are inspired by the apartment’s real environment and the strange legends passed down by its residents. We hope to tell local supernatural stories from a century ago in our own unique way.

We officially started the project in June last year, and development has progressed steadily for over a year. During this period, we’ve held several small-scale closed beta tests and gained many valuable suggestions and feedback. Recently, we’ve been focusing on polishing the demo version, and we believe we’ll have new updates to share with you soon!

If you’re interested in the game, feel free to add Cat Carried Butterfly to your wishlist to stay updated on the latest test information! Every bit of your attention is a huge motivation for us to move forward. We’re looking forward to witnessing the "moment of emergence" of Cat Carried Butterfly with all of you!
