HeroCraft PC and badopticsgames have announced that their feline-friendly cat colony sim, Catizens, has exited Steam Early Access. Now embarking on its v1.0 version, players can watch over unique cats with quirky personalities while helping them build and grow their settlement. Along the way, players will explore new lands, face off against all manner of wildlife, and overcome the challenges each biome brings.
Developers are keen to showcase what makes their game unique outside the whole cat thing. To celebrate the 1.0 release of the game, a new trailer has come along that spotlights gameplay elements as well as peeks at the upcoming holiday event.
Catizens Features
- Herding cats is easy! said no one ever: Your main job in Catizens is to build your town around the personality traits of its inhabitants. Just like in real life, cats require personal attention and special treatment. Combinations of different personality traits and moods affect their proficiency and obedience. Catizens form relationships with each other and will occasionally issue personal requests, so you will need to learn what makes each cat happy in order to stay on their good side.
- Create cats and design the perfect home: Choose from an assortment of facial and body features, as well as personality traits, to create cats with distinct looks and temperaments. Decorate your settlements with furniture, plants, and other items to create a place just for them. The better furnished a town is, the happier your citizens will be, so get creative!
- Build and manage your settlement: Catizens can learn a variety of professions – from farming to blacksmithing or offering protection from local wildlife. Different building types unlock depending on the traits and professions available. There’s no need to micromanage the entire settlement when it gets large. Invest your time and attention in a few outstanding cats and let them become town leaders.
- Explore the wilderness: Develop your settlement, complete objectives, and expand to areas with different environments that offer new adventures. Carefully examine your surroundings to find the best fishing spots, hidden treasures, and quirky characters that may offer a quest.
