Purrfect Date News

Hello Purrfect Daters,

We’ve got three new games in the works at Bossa Studios: Pigeon Simulator, I Am Fish and Trash Bandits and you can play all of them FOR FREE right now.

Prototypes of these three games have been launched on our Bossa Presents site: https://www.bossapresents.com/ so head on over and download the launcher.

Play the games and let us know which one you’d like us to turn into a full-blown release. As we can’t make our minds up for love nor money.

Check out the three prototypes in action!

Pigeon Simulator sets players loose on an unsuspecting city to wreak feathery havoc solo or with up to 3 friends in local co-op. Steal food, poop on your enemies and build nests to raise the next generation.




I Am Fish sees players attempt to navigate one plucky goldfish through a series of traps, trials and tribulations in its epic journey back to the ocean.




Trash Bandits is a local co-op race against the clock to collect as much rubbish as possible. Load up the truck and race to the next pick-up spot, all the while outfoxing the competition!

Head on over to Bossa Presents, start playing, and let us know what you think!

The ever obedient dog might be man’s best friend, but that’s only because man had by that point already been shrugged off by its first choice; the cat! And ever since then, we’ve tried to remedy said rejection by worshiping the feline race from afar, whether that’s by constructing mammoth icons of worship (here's looking at you, Ancient Egyptians!), dedicating entire evenings to Youtube, irresistibly watching one cat-centric clip after another in the false promise that we’ll stop after just... one... more, or seamlessly blending the cute fwuffy things into pop-culture at any god-given opportunity. 

And in a continuation of that blind devotion, we decided to painstakingly choose our top ten favourite pop-culture cats ever! Dogs, eh? Pfft.
  
Dunno why, but something about Garfield’s round, cuddly shape and oh-so fuzzy ginger fur speaks to us. Wait a minute...
 

  
With a cool 49 million youtube views to her name, Keyboard Cat’s not only one of the most famous felines to have ever graced the planet, but very possibly one of the most famous pianists, too. And like all true geniuses, whether it’s Van Gogh or Galileo, her raw, unparalleled talent was completely overlooked until almost twenty years after her untimely death in 1987.
 

 
Ice cream, donuts, pizza, sushi, noodles, pie, pancakes… You name it, Pusheen’s eaten it. And looked darn cute doing so. She also looks pretty bad ass in a monocle and top hat. #JustSayin
   
We never thought we’d say this, but when it comes to cuteness, runt-of-the-litter Lil Bub can give even the likes of Pusheen a run for her money, and she don’t need to be eating no ice cream, donuts, pizza, sushi, noodles, pie or pancakes to do it!
 

  
Sure, we could have included all five of the lovable Purrfect Date rogues in this list, but then again, you guys did officially vote for Trixie as your fave feline, and who are we to argue? Besides, I’ve been trying to get an invite to her cave for a while now, so, ummm, Trixie, if you’re reading this...?
 

  
It’s testament to the pure magnetism of cats, that all it takes is for one to look a little bit grumpy, and wham, bam, thank you, mam, that’s suddenly 2.4 million instagram followers in the bank.
 

  
ThunderCats basically took everything that was good about the eighties (IOW, muscles, lycra and dangerously volumized hair), and threw it in a pot with cats. The result? Only the best cartoon ever made. EVER. MADE.
 

  
Just try watching Maru belly-slide into an undersized cereal box - an expression of pure, unadulterated joy on his face - without suffering a severe pang of the ol’ heart strings. *clutches chest*
 
  
A few Hello Kitty facts for ya: 1) She’s over forty years old (I know, right? WTH’s her secret?!). 2) Story goes, the reason she doesn’t have a mouth is because she speaks from the heart. 3) She’s the official ambassador of Japanese tourism in both China and Hong Kong. All in all, three very legitimate reasons why the red-bowed Japanese bobtail totally deserves a place in our top ten favourite pop culture cats of all time!
 

  
Because what good is any self-respecting ‘top ten’ list without a token humanoid descendent with a penchant for zoot suits. Altogether now… DWAYNE DIBLEY?!?!
 

 
So, who’ve we missed? From Mufasa to Nyan, Salem to Aslan, let us know in the comments below who’d make it into your own top ten list of pop-culture cats. And if for some reason you’re suddenly in the mood to hang out with a bunch of the fetching felines, get on and download Purrfect Date now!

Kicking off the first of our upcoming Q&A seshes, we managed to prize Kibbles away from his joystick (harder than it sounds!) for a few minutes over the weekend in order to answer a few of the questions you guys sent us. Thanks to everyone who took the time to write in, and while it doesn’t look like Kibble’s spent quite as long answering them, well, he did have a somewhat convincing excuse. Apparently you can’t pause Dark Souls! Anyway…
 
On a scale of 1-10, what’s your favourite colour of the alphabet. K – I’m colour blind and that’s really insensitive, dude.
 
What’s that growth on your neck? K – I DON’T TALK ABOUT THAT.
 
If you could describe your own voice, how close is it to Dustin from Stranger Things? K – I’d say I sound more like Dan Bull, but I can spit more fire than him.
 
What’s your opinion on Hawaiian pizza? K – I have an intolerance to fruit, so I medically can’t eat pineapple, but if you swap those bits for pepperoni, it’s pretty good.
 
If you suddenly grew thumbs, what would you use them for first? K – Obviously I’d be the thumb wars world champion, that goes without saying. Also it’d be good for hitchhiking, I guess.
 
What’s your idea of a… purrfect date? K – The Goldshire Inn.
 
What is the size of your “joystick”? K – I use a standard 10” thrustmaster.
