By Far The Most Satisfying Game on the indie Chart 📉 and The Space Cat 🐈 Put the Icing On the Cake 😁 ....
I loved the music theme so much I couldn't resist making a remix since I am a artist 😂 whom ever did the music for this game I'm impressed 👍🏾 can't wait till it's fully released
:DDD Our very own studio director (El) made the tunes for the demo, and he'd like to thank you for this fire hiphop remix!
Also soz for the super late response, we've been away doing roadshows for the last few months so things are a little slower her on Itchio for us atm, but there will be new exciting updates very soon!
OMG! YAS! And thanks so much for sharing this on the Discord channel too!!! This is super super super cute - you can even see Starkid's reflection XD XD XD AAAAGH! *dies from cuteness overload
Thank you for the kind words :D We're considering localizations globally - including Spanish, so feel free to shoot an email our way to hello@khayalanarts.com ~
I tried to kill the cat by landing on him with my spaceship, but it softlocked me - the quest to capture him was left unfinished, and when I left, the game seemed to think I captured him. I was so sure that was the way to get him, too...
Heya thanks for the lovely videos! We saw your part 2 as well, and we hope you enjoyed adventuring through space with Nebula :D Stay tuned on any of our channels for more upcoming info on the full release ~
Heya! Thanks for the awesome video! We hope you've had chill space travelling experience with this demo - and do stay tuned to any of our channels too for more info on the full game :D Laters!
Awesome Demo! The art style fits the cozy mood perfectly. Lil Beef loved his space cat he named "Big Chungus". The characters were definitely vibing in a good way. The planets were fun to explore and having them go in a full circle cut down on backtracking which was a smart design. The pod and locations are cool to look at and take in. The only bug we encountered was if we fly out of the pod on the Trashteriod, we fell through the ground when we should land. Keep up the good work. This is excellent!
Heya Beef Gravy & Lil Beef :D Thanks so much for flying through space with Big Chungus XD
We thoroughly appreciate all your feedback and we're constantly working on fixing the glitches - so rest assured that the full game will be more of a smooth sailing, and yes Lil Beef - it'll be much more ginormous in size too! Full of activities and just more cat stuff! XD
So stay tuned, and thanks for the wonderful video! Hope to see you guys again in the full experience~
Hi! I am loving the game so far!! One question, how do I save where I stopped? I tried to find a save point but couldn't see one, and every time I reopen the game I have to start over :( Is the game meant to be a one sitting play? Once again, love the game so far! It's super cute and fun :))
The demo is indeed meant to be a one sitting play - roughly about 30-40mins duration to get any of the endings, on the other hand - the full game will feature a saving system :)
Hello, thanks for the feedback! This Alpha demo is only currently optimized and built for Windows, however we are working on a MacOS & Linux version for a future update :D So in the mean time, feel free to join our discord or social media to watch out for more I NEED SPACE news! See ya!
Hello! We're currently working to resolve this issue. Would you mind sharing your device's specs and giving some details on when and how the problem occurred? Thank you!
I absolutely loved everything about this game! The art is fantastic, the gameplay is fun, every character in the demo is incredibly charming, and I especially loved the music! I'm very excited for the full game!
Thanks for playing the demo and for the kind words :D
The full version will be premium, but there will also likely be launch period free giveaways - so do join our discord or follow our social media to get firsthand notification about this!
It totally is! The space travel, the home planet, the musicians - they're all hugely inspired by Outer Wilds, and also many other games like Elden Ring, Toem, Hollow Kinght, Undertale and many more :D
ITS REALLY GOOD but i have some criticism when ever the player is is close to the cosmi cat it makes a space noise i suggest you find a way to get rid of it or implement it better, the reason why I suggest that is cause when i play games i usually listen to the back round music they have but while i was playing every time i get close to the cosmi cat their space sounds of ruin the vibe Secondly i recommend you make the ladder to the stairs more noticeable cause I got a bit stuck not knowing where to get the tool box. but that is just my critic but i want to tell you all that YOU GUYS AMAZINGLY GREAT like legit am glad i got to experience this :DD
Hello! Thank you for playing the game and sharing your constructive feedback - we have gathered similar notes form other playtesters too - so we'll be working on those right away and apply the fixes to the next patch. Plus - we have some more awesome surprises in store for the next update too :D
Feel free to reach out and give your feedbacks/ suggestions whenever on any of our socials or discord channel! See ya!
i have a question i am working on a big beautifull game but i am scared that i put soo much work on it and no one will play it. how did you promote your game? how did you make your game popular.
Idk about promotion and stuff, but bro, tell me the name or an insta page or anything I could use to find your game, Ill play it, and tell all of my (very few) friends about it <3
Hi! We're still learning all of these things ourselves, so do take this with a grain of salt - we promoted the demo organically by doing a simultaneous post on as many relevant platform/ social media as possible, joining an event during this period or announcing the game during the event helps get the word out too! In our case it's really fortunate that the timing was perfect, as we released the demo and showcased it in Game Connection & GDC all in the same week :)
All in all - don't be afraid to put your work out there! it's always better to get harsh & productive feedback from the few that does play the game (especially in early stages), in comparison to waiting for the game to be 'perfect' and risk not having any input from anyone at all. So just go for it!
Hope to see you again in the full game! Feel free to reach out and give your feedbacks/ suggestions whenever on any of our socials or discord channel! See ya :D
Hi thanks for the question :) We are currently using really simple png layering in Unity engine for the background. Though we do have an update coming for the backdrop system very soon! We'll be sharing more on the next patch - so do come and hangout with us on our discord or our socials to get more pawsome updates :D
Matthew! :D Thanks for stopping by at the booth and for leaving this supportive comment! Hope to see you again in the full game! But please feel free to reach out and give your feedbacks/ suggestions whenever on any of our socials or discord channel! See ya :D
I'm better at other games than this, and I know that you have a lot of positive comments but.. I was stuck on the first planet T-T Do you mind, idk, explaining the first steps to completing Dark Soils? Or do you recommend I watch a specific YouTube video on the game? Love the game style tho.
Hii, thanks for trying out the demo! Can you tell us which part got you stuck in Dark Soils?
Here's a simple guide to get you started: - Use the telescope and follow the source of the sound. - Get 2 items, return to the Pod. - Go down the stairs on the Well to get a Toolbox. - Return to your Pod and fix the engine with the Toolbox. - Sit on the Pod chair and you're ready to blast off and explore!
If you're feeling lost again, check your Journal or feel free to contact us again. We got a discord for all game-related discussions! :D
Thanks for the video! We hope that you had a great time exploring portion of the Catspaw Galaxy! Nice constellation too - we'll be patching in a more visible 'redo button' to make sure you don't lose your design by accident in the future :)
Please support this project by following/ wishlisting the game & drop by our discord channel for more #cat #space #constellation chill time! See ya :D
We appreciate the kind words! We can't wait to see the full adventure too!
Following/ wishlisting the game will help tremendously in turning that into a reality! So thank you for the support & see you again in the full game :D
thiks game i awesome. i like how you have to look everywhere and read everything to figure out what you should be doing. tho that makes it very un intuitive, it made it feel like a whole new type of game. and the graphics omg. the artist killed it! i love how this game looks. controls are good too. tho i think a lil polish would help this game greatly. the music is totally perfect. it fits this game perfect. i really think this game is gonna do amazing when yall finish it. i think the demo was way too short. i hope that is not any indication of the content of this game. because there should be a whole universe to discover, uncover, recover, and explore. cant wait to play the final product. i hope its not still very early in development. because i want to play more of this game.
That's a very kind compliment from you :D The full game will have plenty of questlines, more locations to discover, and many more mini-games too! The current demo is a small 15% of 1 galaxy out of 6 that you can travel to later, so it'll be huge!~
We are constantly working towards improving the flow of the game as well - as you already mentioned, it can be un-intuitive to find your way across the galaxy at the moment, and so we have upcoming features such as a non-intrusive map system (with custom markers) and so on, to improve on this aspect of the game experience :)
Please support this project by following/ wishlisting the game & drop by our discord channel to throw in your suggestions for the game :D
Can't say enough about this game, loved the play style but the art style was out of this world cute, highly recommend it! Cant wait for the full game! Great job!
Thank you for uploading this! We're so glad to see that you've had an enjoyable space travel with Galaxia XD Also love your voice-overs during the dialog!
Please support this project by following/ wishlisting the game & drop by our discord channel for more #cat #space #constellation chill time! See ya :D

Heya! That's actually a creative (though rather sadistic) way to approach the objective XD We'll be taking this into account for sure ~
Thanks so much for playing and letting us know your feedback! :D

+pespect
And the latest patch lets you rename the cat too :D :D :D
The way you walk around the planets really remind me of 'The Little Prince', It's really cool!
You got it! Le Petite Prince is indeed a huge reference & inspiration for us when designing the planets/ moons~
Very cute game, the art is incredible!!
Thank you for the kind words! More cute characters and expansive world design coming up in the full game :D So stay tuned~
This is cool can't wait for the full version
Thanks for the patience! :D Have a lovely day to you!
This game goes hard
Thanks! We hope you enjoyed the demo experience! More content to be revealed soon - so stay tuned to our channels :D

Linux user here. This game looks awesome and I'm hearing super positive things, but when emulating it with WINE I just get a purple screen.
Hello, thanks for the feedback! This Alpha demo is only currently optimized and built for Windows, however we are working on a MacOS & Linux version for a future update :D So in the mean time, feel free to join our discord or social media to watch out for more I NEED SPACE news! See ya!
That's great to hear! I'm really looking forward to trying this when the new versions come out.
I had a similar problem but I am using windows 10 and the screen was black not purple.
Hello! We're currently working to resolve this issue. Would you mind sharing your device's specs and giving some details on when and how the problem occurred? Thank you!
Freddie Mercury be like x)

i need space too
but, why is space?
The game is somewhat reminiscent of Outer Wilds
It totally is! The space travel, the home planet, the musicians - they're all hugely inspired by Outer Wilds, and also many other games like Elden Ring, Toem, Hollow Kinght, Undertale and many more :D
I played and I really enjoyed the game luck in development.
ITS REALLY GOOD
but i have some criticism when ever the player is is close to the cosmi cat it makes a space noise i suggest you find a way to get rid of it or implement it better, the reason why I suggest that is cause when i play games i usually listen to the back round music they have but while i was playing every time i get close to the cosmi cat their space sounds of ruin the vibe Secondly i recommend you make the ladder to the stairs more noticeable cause I got a bit stuck not knowing where to get the tool box. but that is just my critic but i want to tell you all that YOU GUYS AMAZINGLY GREAT like legit am glad i got to experience this :DD

Sweet! Where should I track updates for the MacOS release?
Hi, I'm a new game developer. How can I create an animated purple background like yours?
Hi thanks for the question :) We are currently using really simple png layering in Unity engine for the background. Though we do have an update coming for the backdrop system very soon!
