Hello hoomans! fofino We have some mews for you! Based on your wonderful feedback, we are making some difficulty changes to Cats Love Boxes. New Casual Mode: Were adding an easier mode where the puzzle solutions are more straightforward. Perfect for those who want a more relaxed experience. Level Adjustments: We are fixing and rearranging some levels that we felt were weak to improve the overall gameplay experience. This update won't add any new achievements. If youve already completed the game, all your achievements will remain intact. Those who choose to finish the game in the casual mode can unlock all achievements just the same, so don't feel discouraged to try our easier mode. winkycat We intend to release this update by the end of this month. cathspaw We hope these changes address some of the issues you've raised and make the game even more enjoyable. Thank you to our wonderful community for all your feedback and support!

Hello, hoomans cathspaw We have a small, ahem, leap in our game that might have caused a bit of a hiccup for some of our players. It seems that our beloved little Leo, in his eagerness to lend a paw, might have accidentally triggered a glitch during the latest updates. As a result, some players might have experienced their saves taking a leap of their own! fofino The issue was related to Achievements not showing up for some players, and we've fixed it as soon as possible. We apologize for any inconvenience this might have caused. sweatcat In the meantime, let's give a round of applause to Froglic, who's been patiently waiting for his moment in the spotlight. Is it him featured on the Google Doodle today? Guess we'll never know! Speaking of leaps, did you know that today is February 29, a leap year? We promise it's not a coincidence, just a quirky little reminder from the universe to keep us on our paws!
Thank you for your understanding and patience as we work to resolve this issue. Here's the full patch notes, and we'll keep working on any bugs or inconveniences the game may be presenting, so please report them. We're a small team, and reporting really helps us hunt down those pesky issues.

• Achievements Fix
• Bug Fix that occurred after playing one of the extra levels, where the screen would freeze at a point on the World Map (usually in World 3: Beach)
• Translation fix in the Gallery Info (for all languages);
• SFX fix during the cutscene of receiving the letter after completing Level 1;
• Adjustment of the "Skip button" animation for the intro/final screen;
• Audio synchronization adjustment during the screen transition between the World Map and the Levels;
• Text adjustments in various parts of the game;
• Added SFX when triggering the Gallery intro.

Thank you all once more, and we hope you enjoy your time with Cats Love Boxes. Love and Purrs, The Devcats

Hello, hoomans! As you're aware, we recently ran on our Ko-Fi ( http://ko-fi.com/devcats ) the "Your Cat in Our Game" campaign, inviting participants to donate and have their beloved cats featured in our upcoming game Cats Love Boxes. The little guy you see in the announcement pitcure is Joao, a rescued cat from Adote Um Ronrom -- a social entrepreneurship dedicated to helping stray cats in Brazil. Joao is one of the many cats they have rescued so far. All proceeds from the "Your Cat in Our Game" campaign were donated to Adote Um Ronrom, to help them a little. Adote Um Ronrom aims to improve the lives of homeless and abandoned cats by providing them with a second chance to find a loving and safe forever home. We at Devcats are proud to contribute to this cause and make a paw-sitive impact in the lives of these vulnerable felines fellas. Please check them out at http://www.instagram.com/adoteumronrom/ and http://www.adoteumronrom.com.br/ !

Hello humans! 2022 was a great year for us! We've released 4 games, a minigame, a comic book and a lot of aditional content for those games. Not to mention the other 4 games we are working on right now! That's a lot of work, so we need more paws to help us.
This is Leo, Devcats' new intern. He was found all alone in our yard, feist as a little feral cat really is. We rescued him and within 5 days he bloomed into a sweet little boy, purring loud every time we pet him. If you follow us on instagram (@luadogato) you already know all that. We named him Leo and he still need to be approved by all of us cats, but most likely he's going to stay with us permanently. ~~~~~~~~~~ We created a special bundle for the end of the year! The purrfect christmas gift for a dearly friend!
https://store.steampowered.com/bundle/2976/Devcats_Collection_FOR_GIFTS/ This bundle will only be available for a limited time. We have a lot of plans for 2023, however we've learned that is always better to wait until the following release because we announced a bunch of games in 2022 and had to change plans for various reasons Last but definitely not least, we would like to THANK everyone of you who have been supporting us this whole year and we wish you a happy Christmas and a PAWSOME 2023! PS: Our humans made this game. It's a really hard competitive arcade shooter but in case you like this type of game, it's on sale for a few pennies. https://store.steampowered.com/app/1520330/TechBeat_Heart/ Love & Purrs, Devcats ^^

Hi, lovely humans! Today is the most special day of all the year: International Cat Day! "It was created in 2002 by the International Fund for Animal Welfare, to raise awareness for cats and learn about ways to help and protect them" -- and that's what we've been doing (and will continue to do) in all of our current and future games: showing you humans that cats are just as cute and loving as dogs and we cats need care, love and protection just like them. fofino2 Now to the mews! Here are some of the news about our games:

A BUILDING FULL OF CATS

Trading Cards and emoticons are here! lovecat
The hint system is coming in a few days. This next update will also include a Dutch localization.

CATS LOVE BOXES

We had plans for releasing Cats Love Boxes this month. We really believe in this game but the wishlists are WAY bellow than our other games. sweatcat That's crazy of you, humans... It's a game about BOXES! How can someone not be excited about that? crycat2 Because of that, we postponed Cats Love Boxes launch to the end of the year.

COZY ROOM

That's the game we're willing to launch next. We don't have a release date yet but we hope to launch it in September.

A CASTLE FULL OF CATS

A Castle Full of Cats development is going well and we believe it will be a worthy successor to A Building Full of Cats. winkycat A demo will be available on the October edition of Next Fest, so you can play the game before buying it.

SUDOCATS

There is going to be a small content update later this month, which will also include 2 new languages: Japanese and Russian. Well, that's it! Enjoy your cats and cats games today most of all days, in homage to all feline friends in the world! Thank you again, humans! Love & Purrs, Devcats

Hi there! Its been 4 months since we launched our very first game as Devcats and we are very grateful for the players reaction. Weve traced plans for Devcats in 2022 and wed like to share them with you! ;) Theres one factor thats really important to a game on Steam: wishlists. Thats why weve been revealing so many games in advance. We need to have as many wishlists as we possibly can by the day of each game launch, otherwise said game will be completely lost amidst all the other current releases. So, we politely ask you: if youre interested in our games, remember to add them to your wishlist and follow them, so we can stand a chance among the others. ?
Even if you dont wish to buy the game right at its release, having considerable wishlists and followers helps us to gain some projection inside Steams algorithm. Thats right, even cats are dependable on algorithms now... :( All of our games are being included in the DEVCATS BUNDLE at their release therefore you can always buy the game with an extra 20% discount if you have our previous games! So, lets cut to the games... https://store.steampowered.com/app/2007350/Cozy_Room/

COZY ROOM

This is our main announcement of the day! Youve just won a free game!! Cozy Room is a virtual room where you can enjoy the worlds most amazing companionship: Mr. Fofio! Decorate your room and do whatever you need in this relaxing environment. Customize your room and unlock decor items by solving puzzles that tell the rescue story of our dear Fofio (latin word for cute and fluffy). You can also build your own playlist, directly from your computer, with your favorite music. Cozy Room is planned to be released in August/September.

SUDOCATS

Despite Zodiacats being our first release, Sudocats was our very first game we had some setbacks in the project and thats why there were so many things done wrong. We solved all Sudocats problems in the first month and now were updating something strongly requested by you all: real cats pictures! Below, an example with our CEO Judy:
This image is not merely illustrative: Sudocats WILL BE LAUNCHED in Nintendo Switch! Sudocats update will be online next week.

ZODIACATS

Were planning to add a glossary about sign attributes (were doing our homework to be as precise as we can). Also, the next update might come with a surprise ;) Zodiacats updates are on hold for now, unfortunately. Thats because of

STEAM NEXT FEST

Well be participating with A Building Full of Cats demo. We have just a few weeks to finish the game, which is going to be released as soon as the festival is over. As were just five cats, we need every paw we have here (darn it, we wish we have thumbs!!!) We had plans to launch a demo for Cats Love Boxes for this festival as well, but it seems were running out of time. Were still working on it, anyhow. Its release is planned for July.

THE BLUE CAT

This is currently our main project therefore it might take way more time to be ready. Its possible that we will release some other non-announced-games before launching The Blue Cat. Stay tunned! Thats all folks! Hope you liked our mews! Love & Purrs, DEVCATS
