Hello, hoomans! ːfofinob2ː Initially, this was going to be a remaster where we would simply redraw the existing artwork and add some details to take advantage of the new resolution. But we felt that would be a little boring, so we decided to recreate the environments with more freedom. Some rooms changed more than others. We tried to preserve the same essence while also adding new things. We also took advantage of the larger environments to add 20+ cats per apartment. Some changes from the original that we made to keep the game up to our current standards:
Each room now has its own counter. In the original, the counter was shared between the two rooms.
Support for additional screen resolutions, like in our more recent games.
The game no longer automatically returns to the title screen after you find all the cats. Now you need to find all the cats and Fofiño. This was something that caused confusion for some players in the original game. Finding Fofiño was almost a secret.
As players ourselves, we really value preserving the original experiences. The original A Building Full of Cats will remain available forever. The original game was made in Godot 2, while we now use Godot 4. To avoid any risk of changing the original experience, and to avoid having to rebuild everything while following the original rules, we decided to make both versions available through a launcher. Whenever you click “Play,” Steam will open the launcher, where you can choose between A Building Full of Cats Classic (2022) and A Building Full of Cats Remake (2026). Achievements are shared between both versions, except for the Fofiño adoption achievement, which has its own separate achievement in each version. Yes, there is one new achievement. It wouldn’t be a real release without some achievement-related controversy! Consoles: The console version will not be updated to this new version for now. We do plan to release it someday, but since the update also depends on work from our publisher, it’s not part of our plans at the moment. This remake is our way of saying thank you for all the love and support from our community, which gave us the opportunity to keep expanding the Full of Cats series. ːkisscatː
500,000 Copies!
A Building Full of Cats has surpassed 500,000 copies sold across PC and consoles! ːlovecatː It’s the game that changed our lives and gave us the opportunity to make a living entirely from our studio, while also helping many animal shelters! We’ve been able to make a difference in the lives of many cats by supporting organizations, including:
The Humane Society
Resgatto
Adote Um Ronrom
Amiguinhos da Cora
Pets do Vidas
Gatinhos do Cete
Projeto Nove05
Adote Um Gatinho
Abrigo Anjo Gabriel
Abrigatinhos
And many more individual rescuers. Thank you so much for giving us this opportunity! ːfofino2ː Next month, we’ll announce the 10th (!) game in the series, which is coming out later this year. We’re dying to show it to you, but for now, it’s still a secret! ːwadacatː
[dynamiclink href="https://store.steampowered.com/app/3887130/Fluffy_Escape_Cryptic_Cube/"]We’d also like to take this opportunity to ask you to add Fluffy Escape: Cryptic Cube to your wishlist. Those of you who have been following us since the beginning have seen how much we’ve evolved the formula from the original Building all the way to Planet. This is a brand-new series that we really believe in. In fact, we’re already working on two games in the series at the same time and organizing ideas for even more.
It’s a series we want to develop alongside the Full of Cats games, bringing more paws onto the team and expanding the studio even further.
It’s going to be affordable and we promise hours of fun! ːlilyb2ː
Love & Purrs,
The Devcats ฅ^•ﻌ•^ฅ
