Catio Simulator

I really enjoyed this game as a short-ish cookie clicker alternative. I really appreciated the hover to click option, it was a really helpful accessibility feature and since I received this as something to stream, it helped knowing I wasn't going to have any chance of constant clicking being picked up by the audio. The progression is solid and I really liked the pool of cat names. The game has now added the option to permanently adopt a kitty and I'm just sat waiting on the perfectly named cat to appear. I played this game pretty actively, so around the 4 hour mark I was pretty much automated and just waiting on money coming in to achieve the quests. At this point, I can just turn it into an idler as long as I stop caring about the bonus pets (which is hard to do when they pay so well!) I definitely think if you ran it solely as an idler, you'd get a lot of time before you maxed out. Unfortunately, now that I've hit the end game I'm really feeling the looping of the quests; autopetter pet x times, player pet x times, buy 3 items, loop. I think it makes sense that these are things that can loop and get bonuses rather than be tied to promoting progression, but you really feel them. I think perhaps a quest board of some sort rather than them popping up automatically in the corner of the screen may make it feel less like you're caught in the loop. I would like a version where it displays always on top in a mini-window, so I can keep an eye on it while I do other work and just see the kitties playing around. Unfortunately, I know this feature can be buggy with Linux from implementation in other games. I really like how this game looks, the art is really nice and I like the design for the patio. I really enjoyed the pinnacle items too!
