Team knock-over or team watch-in-horror? What’s the weirdest thing your cat’s ever knocked over? Share this with someone whose cat has mastered the art of destruction. #cats #pixelart #nekohouse #cozygames #indiegamedev

Cats really love boxes, so we added feature where Mikan can jump into a box to collect things. What’s the first thing you’d want to find inside?

A pixel art of our game character, Mikan sitting inside a cardboard box. Her head is only visible. The caption says: Plain, dependable, smells like dry noodles. Mikan's first love and still a top-tier nap zone.

Neko House on Steam
Like Moonlighters, but with cats. Play as Mikan the cat, care for strays and find them homes, but every adoption is a gamble. Make hard choices, manage your shelter, and watch your reputation rise or ...

Dev Diary: Today I helped make assets, by PLAYING with YARN. They sit at their computers all day, so I showed them what fun is. They even added yarn balls to the game! Because of ME!

NOTE: Yarn in real life isn't safe for cats.

Dev Diary: Guess what we are adding?

We are in the process of flushing out the town and filling out the houses! You will see new houses and new interiors around!

What are some essentials you would like to see in the houses?

Mikan's diary entry #1. Mikan made a confession about a secret. The confession is written on the image.

Has your cat ever farted in front of you?

#pixelart #cats #indiegamedev #pixels #nekohouse #indiegames
Mikan is standing in front of a mirror. The title is called, "Mikan's diary entry #1." The text on the post says, "This is my confession mirror. Last night, I silently farted under Matsue's blanket. She was asleep. She remained asleep. We both lived with the consequences...I have no regrets."

This is an old menu design, but we might adjust it and reuse it for something else. What do you think? Should we reuse it for something new?

A little peek inside the shelter when you first start. It’s definitely seen better days, but with some care (and a few furniture swaps), it’ll start feeling a lot more like home.

What’s the first thing you’d upgrade?

Throwback to an earlier iteration of our shop UI, designed by our former graphic designer. It’s always interesting to see how things have evolved! What do you think—would you have navigated this easily, or do you prefer a different approach?

This is an old mockup of our store. It looks totally different now, but our former graphic designer worked really hard on it, so we wanted to share.

Ever dress up your cat? Here’s Mikan dressed in a sailor outfit. Our artist illustrated a cute version of the original photo. If you have any adorable cat photos, we’d love to see them!

Our artist created this adorable illustration of the founder’s cats, Haru and Natsu! What do you think—should they make an appearance in Neko House?

The area where most of our team are based posted some great games on the Global Gam Jam site! Everyone worked so hard in the limited time they had. Our Level Designer made a solo project and her artwork is so cute! It’s called Time Bubble. globalgamejam.org/group/11840/...

Fun fact of the day.

Has your cat ever done this to you? What’s the most passive aggressive thing your cat has ever done?

We plan to have a pretty UI clock in the corner. What do you think?
