Just so you know, here's the full list of platforms KittenRush will support in the end!

- Android (Google Play)
- iOS (App Store)
- Windows (Steam, STOVE)
- macOS (Steam)
- Linux
- Web (itch, Apps in Toss)

I figured the demo build for itch really ought to be playable right in the browser, so I'm planning to support a web version too. But as the platforms keep piling up, it's getting harder and harder to manage. Still, gotta push through to the end!

But after a few messages, it always circles back to them trying to sell me something.
And somehow, they all call themselves “marketing experts” while using AI-generated profile pics. 😅
Getting people to care about the game itself is harder than I thought.

[KittenLab @KittenLab]

KittenRush has only just reached the demo stage on Steam, and I haven’t made a single dollar yet… but somehow the salespeople are already everywhere 🥲
At first, I was genuinely happy whenever someone reached out because I thought they were interested in the game.

Did you know? 🐾

KittenRush plays a different theme depending on the time of day you open it.

Morning, day, evening, night — four themes, and the kitten falls asleep under a different sky each time.

Which one's your favorite? 🐾

It wasn't free. I underestimated what engines do for you.

Frame pacing, colliders, pixel snapping — you build it all yourself. With almost no prior art, every Skia gotcha I found the hard way.

Still, I had a great time! More updates coming.

How KittenRush was made — no game engine 🐾

Kotlin Multiplatform + Compose.
Android, iOS, Windows, macOS, Linux — one codebase.

Not a bold choice. Just the right fit for what I wanted 🧵

What's left is audio output, ad SDKs, window management — actual OS boundaries, nothing else.

No new language, no new IDE, no new build system.
