🌸 August 2023 Major Update – multiple kittens, day/night, mod support, and much more! 🌸
You can now have multiple kittens! Over a dozen different types to choose from.
Day and night cycle– and of course, lighting items. You can change the light color, and I’ve included a rainbow color-shifting option.
Floating hearts appear around the map every sunrise. Your kittens can pick them up. Feeding your kitten temporarily makes it go faster.
Lots of new decorative items including rugs and more plants. More flooring options, too. The [daily] tab restocks every sunrise with random items.
Plants attract butterflies <3
The robot chef will refill empty food dishes automagically 🙂
Kittens loooove boxes!
And added quality-of-life features such as:- volume control- option to move, rotate, or flip items- option to remove items- option to rehome kittens (for a fee!) 🥺- option to pause time- option to arrange items in a grid or randomly
