When I saw Little Kitty, Big City was available on Xbox PC Game Pass, I definitely had to try it.

The best way I can describe this game is that it’s a cat simulator. As a cat, you’re spreading mischief all over Tokyo. But hey, the residents of Tokyo can’t stay mad at you. You are, after all, a lovable cat.

This game has managed to make me be jealous of cats. You know how much I wish that I could just take a nice nap in the sunlight? Or pounce on a bird? Or haphazardly knock over flower pots?

I very much feel like a cat, and that’s not the easiest thing to accomplish.

The developer is quite insistent that you use a gamepad, even warning you prior to starting the game. For the first hour, I did what they wanted. But after awhile, what would happen if I used a mouse and keyboard instead. And damn what the developers want, i prefer keyboard and mouse controls. It’s more comfortable that way, especially since I have a nice mechanical keyboard that does my bidding.

There is something that scratches my head, though. Double Dagger Studio is located in Seattle. I don’t know why so many American video game companies set their games in Japan. Don’t get me wrong, Japan is a lovable country. But nevertheless, why Japan?

Compared to AAA titles, the graphics are quite basic. Yet, this being an indie game, it’s well done. The low poly visual aesthetic is pleasing to the eye. It’s also quite nice that this game can run on 10-year-old hardware.

The soundtrack is excellent as well. Cool jazz is a great choice when you’re a cat. The developers actually sell the soundtrack as DLC, and I’d say it’s worth it.

This is Double Dagger Studio’s first game that they’ve ever released, and this is an excellent debut. I would be shocked if this game isn’t a massive hit, especially since it’s so wholesome and accessible. Kids ought to love it, older folks too.

For real, if you like cats, you will love this game.

Steam doesn’t require games to have DRM. In fact, some of the biggest titles sold on Steam don’t even have DRM.

Here’s a list of some of them:

Man, this hits really hard.
Akira Toriyama had the biggest influence on my childhood. Dr. Slump and Dragon Ball are franchises that I share many memories of with my brother and many of my friends. Every day we would run home from school to catch the DBZ intro and watch Son Goku scream his heart out to reach his next form :cryingsunglasses:

RIP legend

@pallenberg Hi Sascha, könnte das vielleicht an deinem Standort liegen? Ich kann das o.g. bestätigen. Abgesehen von meinen durch Likes erkannten Interessen (Fitness, Tech, Otaku) werden mir öfter provozierende Posts mit rassistischem Inhalt, Frauen- oder Männerhass angezeigt.

    @irfan I’m glad they passed this bill but I never knew there were still so many countries?!

    @irfan I knew it was kinda still a thing in China and Korea from YouTubers I watch (Little Chinese Everywhere and Jimmy Kim) but it’s apparently mostly avoided by the younger generations and more apparent in rural and/or poorer areas. Still, it’s crazy that it’s still a thing.

    I finished 3. I liked the slice of life segments in this one but the story was average at best. Still very enjoyable IMO :kiryuthumbsup:

    I've always wanted tattoos. I'd have every inch of my skin tattooed and pierced if I could. Watching your immune system and skin cells drawn as such cute figures and seeing their struggle defending you while you're getting tattooed, and their decades-long persistence afterwards in holding onto your tattoo for you (even passing them down to their successors after their death) does make it easier for me to accept letting them rest and not go through the chaos lol.

    @irfan The video I watched before I got tattoos did some similar explanations but omg idk if I’d gotten myself tattooed if I watched this one. Poor Macrophages :blobsweats:

    Just watched and saw THAT reveal, , when 2 isn't even out yet WHAAAAT.

    Looks to be a game and I HOPE THAT IT IS so we can finally get closure from Kojima's never-got-released, legendary of a game (playable trailer), P.T. 😭

    @irfan OD is the Xbox game. I don’t like horror games that much but I’m excited just because of the collaboration between Kojima and Jordan Peele!

    I will not fail my FOMO again and buy a game I’ll drop after 3hrs no ma’am

    I really need to continue my and playthrough instead of buying and playing new games lol. I've not even touched I was gifted months ago, that's nuts.

    kosta,
    @kosta@outerheaven.club avatar

    @irfan My backlog is so big that I just drop games that don’t grab me bast the 3hr mark. There are just too many good games coming out. I rushed through Lost Judgment so I could start Like a Dragon Gaiden yesterday lol. There’s nothing of interest to me coming out (yet) until the next Like a Dragon in January so I’ll finally (or rather maybe) have some time to finish Tears of the Kingdom :cat_ahaha:

    I'm definitely moving away from #Firefish (@irfan) and making this #Sharkey instance my new home. Most of my exports have finally completed (why does it take so long even just to export small following lists and such?), and I'm just waiting for my notes/posts export to hopefully complete sooner than later since I heard that migrating away from FF would cause you to lose access to the account or something like that? Idk sounds kinda weird and complicated. Happy to be moving, and happy to see others have moved too from such a dumpster fire of an instance of an otherwise neat service/project.

    @kosta@outerheaven.club avatar

    @irfan @irfan unfortunately I’d lose about 200 people I follow if I moved to kitsu. :/ I’ll stay here for now but I’m convinced now that FF is not the way to go for me.

    kosta,
    @kosta@outerheaven.club avatar

    @irfan @irfan I did and lost ~200 people. mastodon.social and mstdn.social are suspended from federating with Kitsunes.
