@NogitsuneGurl Exactly! I wanted the colony systems to stay cozy instead of turning into micromanagement. Shared resources and smart skipping make a big difference once you have more cats ๐พ

One wallet, one inventory, a whole colony. ๐
Every cat earns coins by her own affection, and it all goes into one shared wallet. Feed everyone in one go: cats that are already full get skipped.

New blood in, old-timers off to a new home. ๐
Adopt a kitten for 100 coins: she's related to no one, so she's perfect for keeping the line going. Cats past 8 can be rehomed to make room when the colony is full.

In a colony, cats grow old. โณ
Kitten, adult, retired at 8, senior at 12: each cat's lifespan is set somewhere between 12 and 15 years (about 3โ4 days at 1ร). When she goes, she stays on the family tree.

Hard mode: breed all 43 coats yourself. ๐ด
Only kittens born in your colony count, not founders or adopted cats. Fewest mutations, fastest needs, and losing one cat ends the run. It's meant to take a while. ๐ช

Medium mode: a 14-item checklist. ๐
Breed 15 coats across 5 families, reach generation 3, reveal a hidden trait, and see all five genetic phenomena โ from direct inheritance to tortoiseshell patches.

Easy mode: follow a 5-step breeding route. ๐ข
Your two founders' genes set the route, and every step is reachable without luck. Finish it, breed one more brand-new coat, and it's cleared. ๐

Why are calicos almost always girls? ๐งก๐ค๐ค
Orange rides on the X chromosome, and the patches take two different X's. A calico tom needs an extra X (XXY), which just 0.4% of tomcats get, and he can never breed.
#indiedev#pixelart#calico
Pixel Kitten Desktop ยท Devlog #26 ๐ฑ
Every kitten's coat is inherited. ๐งฌ
43 coats in six families, and some traits hide: two parents who aren't shaded can still have a shaded kitten. No gene letters โ you watch the coats and work it out.

When a cat is expecting, a tiny spinning heart follows her around. ๐
63 cat-days later (about an hour at 1ร), 1โ2 kittens arrive right beside their mom, and you get to name them.
#indiedev#pixelart#cozygame#cats
@ChiveArcade A bit of both! Rarer patterns are tied to specific breeding combinations and inherited traits, but I donโt want every path to be obvious. Part of the fun is experimenting across generations and discovering which pairings unlock something new ๐พ
Pixel Kitten Desktop ยท Devlog #21 ๐ฑ
The full version is almost here! ๐
Since the Demo: a whole colony on your desktop, hidden genes, breeding challenges, auto feeders, accessories, a Lo-Fi radio and more.
More on each in the next devlogs โจ
#indiedev#pixelart#cozygame
@visitplayground Exactly! I love when those tiny unscripted moments make you forget thereโs a system underneath. That feeling of her simply existing beside you is what Iโm aiming for ๐พ
