Meowdy, fellow cats! 😺

First off, thank you SO MUCH for all the kind words and to everyone who played the game. I have received very heartwarming comments and messages about my game. It touched me more than I thought it would. Thank you all! ❤

I just released a patch for the game, it contains:

• Fix for crash on Linux and Mac
• Pause menu now says how many minutes has passed since the game last saved
• Improved inventory & abilities UI
• The default bindings have been changed to no longer use CTRL as the ‘use’ key
• Fix SPACE ONION blinking for 1 frame when it just starts flying
• Fix for screen flashing when coming back to THE CAT’s planet
• Fix for THE CAT being able to climb in the air on the side of hatches
• Fix for text moving off the screen properly after collecting letters with SPACE ONION
• Reduced memory usage
• THE CAT run animation now looks a bit smoother
• PlayStation buttons icons: Square is now pink/red and circle is orange instead of the other way around

Steam release

The game is coming out on Steam in Q1 2024. You can wishlist the game here: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2781210/CAT__ONION – The Steam release come with a new patch that I will also put here on itch.

My YouTube Channel

Going forward there will be more activity on my channel. Here’s the link: https://www.youtube.com/@karl_zylinski – I’ll both post Q&A live streams about this game as well ass more general gamedev videos. I have some fun ideas in mind, I’m very excited about making a series of videos on getting started with gamedev using Odinlang + Raylib.

Some examples of the type of videos you can find on my channel:

My Discord server

If you are interested in talking about gamedev, found a bug in my game or just wanna chat about how to best go about putting cats in video games, then you can join my Discord server: https://discord.gg/4FsHgtBmFK

Source code updates

The source code has been updated to the same version as the patch was built from.

The structure of the source code has been changed a bit. I have updated the README.txt to make it clearer on how to build the Odin compiler. Also, the Odin compiler that ships with the game now comes with the source, so you can easily build it.

Once again, thanks a lot. Have a day!
