A cute, kind RPG: Explore, befriend, then collect wholesome cats!

Watch the trailer, or play today for free:

I created this game during my summer 2018 internship at Zynga for an internal hackathon. Feedback was great so I acquired the rights for the game from the company, finished the game, then published.

I just love cats so much!
