Hello everyone!
After a lot of thought, weve 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.
Why a newsletter instead of Discord like other developers?
Since its only the two of us, and we dont 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 doesnt require a lot of extra time or energy from either side but still keeps us in touch.
Why Patreon instead of a traditional newsletter?
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!
Will there be exclusive content on Patreon?
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 youd like to see, feel free to let us know! So come join us on Patreon to keep up with our game development journey . https://www.patreon.com/NoobzillaTeam Cheers! UB & Estu

Hi everyone, the moment we've all been waiting for is finally here!
Thank you so much to everyone who has been patiently waiting.
Cats Around Us: Giant Cat is now released!
https://store.steampowered.com/app/2925310/Cats_Around_Us__Giant_Cat/
This project is a special one for us as its our first pilot project, where we collaborated with an artist from another medium (comic). Shout out to Kathrinna Rakhmavikathank you for working with us and providing such an engaging comic.
[quote=UB]To be honest, I was a bit nervous about releasing this since the format is a bit different from the Cats and Seek series. I wanted this series to focus more on the comic's storytelling, so there aren't as many interactive elements as in Cats and Seek. Let me know if the difference is clear enough between Cats Around Us and Cats and Seek, or if they still feel the same. What do you think we should add to make these two series distinct? [/quote]
We hope this project brings joy to your hearts. If you have any suggestions or feedback, please share them in the discussion forum. Ill be delighted to read them.
And of course, no game is free from bugs. We've tested it multiple times, but some issues may have slipped through. If you encounter any problems or bugs, please report them here, and I'll fix them as soon as possible.
Thats all from us. Enjoy Cats Around Us: Giant Cat!

So, back in February, our friend Devil Ray, a Cats and Seek: Osaka player, gave us feedback on the discussion board:
[quote=Devil Ray] Would it be possible that you can color in the rest of the page after you found all the cats? That would be awesome. [/quote]
We were thrilled with the suggestion but due to technical constraints, we couldn't implement it in the first two Cats and Seek games. Now, in Cats and Seek: Kyoto, I've tried to implement the idea but with a some twist (turns out, coloring a very large picture isn't easy to create ).
Photo and Coloring Mode
With this feature, we can capture interesting spots and then freely color them as we like :D The results can be downloaded and shared with the world.
So, if you're interested in this feature, help us out by wishlisting Cats and Seek: Kyoto. And don't forget to share it with your friends too It would really mean a lot to us. https://store.steampowered.com/app/2845320/Cats_and_Seek__Kyoto/ ---------- So, that's a little update from us. Warm regards. UB & Estu

Hey folks! We're Noobzilla, a couple creating a cat-themed game.
Welcome to Cats & Seek!
This game is our chill project after months of tinkering with another cat game. While exploring cat games, we stumbled upon cool stuff like Hidden Cats series, Cats Hidden series, Full of Cats series, 100 Hidden series, you name it. Tried them out, loved the simplicity, short playtime, and loads of fun.
So, we thought, why not give it a whirl and spice up the hidden cat game scene on Steam?
Turns out, creating it was a blast and we hope it brings you some joy.
This is our debut on Steam, and we're excited to dive into the Steam and gamer community. We'd love your help, so drop your suggestions or feedback directly in the forum, and we'll be on it.
By the way, the game is set to launch on November 27 at 9 PM PST. Fingers crossed for a smooth release, and we can't wait for you to give it a spin!
Cheers,
UB & Estu
