People are understandably focused on the cat, but the animation work on the robots is so good as well. They have such a jovial, emotional vibe to them and the expressions complete their almost cartoony charm.

Can we mention how beautiful the scene is when the city finally opens? Like after we’ve played this game for hours, it really hits you with a wave of emotions to see actual sunlight covering the areas we’ve explored and all of the bots we know reacting to it Gives me chills
Another way this particular cat is smarter then the average human. In this case Stanley. The cat knew that bucket was not to be trusted and disposed of it right away.
Fun fact: when cats blink slowly it's the equivalent of them saying "I trust you" as in I trust you enough to shut my eyes around you. So as the cat left the city, they turned and said they trusted the Companions, or B-12. Either is cute

I'd like to point out for everyone that missed it, at the end, the little flicker on the screens to the left is implying the "B12" didn't get deleted, he went back into the circuits but now has access to all of the city.
living with cats just makes this game so much better. how the cat acts after b-12 dies is heartbreaking, the nuzzle and slow blink almost made me cry. that's a cat that truly loves it's human. i'd say the cat's love and loyalty to b-12 is really realistic, cats aren't as outwardly loyal as dogs but if i had a dollar for every time one of my cats has actively tried to help me i'd be a rich man.
I really love how the robots love humans. It's a nice subversion from the usual robot stories where they rally against humanity for a plethora of reasons. It's also really cute that they like the cat.
On my playthrough, I didn't find the memory that explained where the Zurks came from, so they were just this unexplained and absolutely terrifying horror element.
@@chromatic_fate7114 they were originally made as bacteria to eat the trash in the city. One thing led to another and they evolved to be the monstrosities we know them as today.
One of our cats snuck out of our front door. When I realized she was gone I freaked out, because we lived on a high-traffic road. But she had just jumped the gate into our backyard and was sitting at the back door meowing indignantly to be let back in.
You know what's interesting? The characters don't seem to actually speak English to the cat: in fact it might also be just speaking in the language *for* the cat. The text must only be for us to read, but to the cat B-12 is basically translating in cat-tongue! Technology really has surpassed.
They speak a robot language they made which B-12 translates for us/cat to understand, as explained in a memory. I don't know if this is what you were saying or not?
I guess if they have the technology to transfer a human consciousness to a robot, then understanding the brain well enough to know cat-language shouldn't be too hard.
“Uhh.. you guys aren’t allowed pets in the building” This studio : uhh no no! These aren’t pets! They’re ah… for research for our new game! “Oh uh… sure? Just keep them in here…” The studio : no problem :) … The studio : *fuck alright so we need to make a game about cats*
"Congrats on publishing your game, figure you don't need to research the cats anymore." The studio: "Ah, about that... We're actually working on DLC, and a sequel soo... We're gonna need a lot more research."
as someone who has had a cat who fell from the 6th floor and had that exact same back leg injury as the intro... that hit a bit too cloose to home. at least she lived a good life after as well as before. edit: if anyone's wondering, no, it wasn't fixed with just a lick or two, her femur was pulverized
Based on the cat collapsing and then the fade out/cut to a door opening I'd guess the cat was probably down there for a while recovering and they just skipped over it since it would be unnecessary time wasted to show it. Although imo it felt somewhat abrupt and I half expected to be limping around for the first section before someone patched us up
4:32 “It was then Cat picked up a bucket. The cat felt an overwhelming wave of calmness wash over it. As if Cat could accomplish anything as long as it held the bucket.” “Cat! Cat? Why aren’t you listening to me Cat? It’s just a BUCKET. It doesn’t do anything!”
@@kakyoindonut3213 unfortunately, you drop the bucket as you jump down just before the first Zurk chase scene. Trust me, I tried to bring the bucket with me
I love how at the end, when the cat looks at the camera, it does one long blink, which is a cats way of smiling, so its essentially thanking you for playing.
I could honestly see it being GOTY. It has incredible world building, amazing design of the world and robot characters, great music score. I kinda hope it gets some type of reward.
When this game was announced I was hyped, but I kinda thought it would be a joke. Seeing this playthrough really just shows how much love is in this game. Not only for cats but for the work and gaming meowdium (I'm not sorry) as a whole. Genuinely a great game, an amazing story, and a lovely experience
I expected a fixed perspective puzzle game similar to gardens between with timelie elements, the fact the game is this big after 2 years of hearing almost nothing was the BEST surprise I could ask for
At the beginning when you're being lead on by the computer screens, if you meow at the camera's they do a little wiggle at you in return. It's so cute.
they captured the chaotic essence of a cat, with their ability to make things fall over and break. Also, those cats are meowing too much for the feral kind, makes me wonder if that is to imply they used to be pets, or i'm just overthinking it
"Feral" cat means a former domesticated animal that went back to living without human supervision, but often near humans or inside their city. Just as "feral pigs" are not the same species as "wild hogs". And these cats don't look like wildcats... and as you said, adult cats only meow to get human attention. While there is a species of wildcat in Japan -- the solitary Iriomote mountain cat (Prionailurus bengalensis iriomotensis, a subspecies of the Bengal cat) that is endemic to the small island of Iriomote (Okinawa Prefecture). But those would never live in a ruined city.
@@laum5371 I think the context here is, that he noticed that I confused the word feral with wild and corrected me. While also pointing out that a wild cat wouldn't be in the city areas to begin with.
I’m convinced that Stray is secretly a Kirby game or a game set in the Kirby universe for a number of reasons: 1) You play as a cute and lovable character that you would die to protect. 2) You get to meet a numerous amount of characters in the world with their own unique backstories and personalities. 3) You face against Cthulhu-esque monster and creatures for their sole purpose of making you their next meal. 4) You have a sidekick that helps you along your journey where at the end of the game, they either sacrifice themselves to save you and everyone or return to their own home. But regardless on what you think, this game definitely deserves GOTY for the sole purpose of having a dedicated Meow button 🐱
@@henrijayy Kirby: Has 4 limbs, is cute, has killed, and will again John Stray of species Felis catis: Has 4 limbs, is cute, has killed, and will again
this game was directed by Larry the cat, Chief Mouser of the Cabinet Office of the United Kingdom at 10 Downing Street. A brown and white tabby, Larry directed the game as a metaphor for the current state of UK politics, as well as a representation of his own personal views on London city. An anonymous Member of Parliament purchased Larry a high end gaming PC so that Larry could play a role in the development of Stray from his residence at 10 Downing street. While Stray is his first title, Larry has always exhibited a passion for game design, and has expressed his joy at seeing his game on store shelves.
I love at the end the cat just slowly blinks(the sign of love for cats) which shows that the animators and all the people who have worked on this game really put their heart and soul into it. The fact that they were able to patch plot holes SO well is absolutely amazing. this is an amazing game 100% 11/10. Also the first game that got me actually stressed on how it would turn out, and crying like a baby
Even the sons name is a back to the future reference! In the third movie, Marty goes back to 1885 and meets his Irish ancestor, who’s name is Seamus. Really cool and sweet :) awesome play through ^-^
I'm so happy you played this game 😭😭 my only criticism of Stray is that there's no cat customization. But an orange cat becoming the savior of a new civilization thanks to its chaotic cat nature is somehow fitting
The fact that the cat is orange actually gives minor context clues (mostly that orange cats are male about 80% of the time) so they wouldn’t have wanted to add customization if they were intending on giving that little hint. Considering how the studio seems to feel towards cats, I feel that it’s actually pretty reasonable to think it may have been intentional.
1:28:00 Small detail: That slow blink the Cat does into the camera; a slow blink is a sign of trust and friendship. Basically, they're saying thank you to you, the player
Cats can be pretty loyal. Our dog got attacked by a couple cats a long time ago and our cat jumped in to help her. Likewise our cat would always accompany us when one of us would be doing things outside and attack thinks like snakes and rats when they got close. My cousins also had a cat who ripped out a pitbull’s eyeball (he got injured as well) when the pit bull mauled their little dog.
It's not typical, since cats havent been domesticated as long as dogs or been bred to be as dependant on humans, but definitely there are cats who are fiercely loyal
@@PointsofData I don't think it's a matter of how long cats have been domesticated, so much as it is their personality. Some cats run from threats, some will attack it, just as some cats will run from a threat to a human, or attack the threat to protect their companion, cat or human
The fact that the cat is smart enough to solve a puzzle without anyone training him how to really makes me wonder if all the cats we're seeing are actually humans transformed
Honestly cats are very self sufficient so it wouldn't surprise me if they just knew it. In the wild most cats don't even live in groups. Humans just don't see them as smart cause they don't listen to humans commands a lot of the time
I mean, if it was enough time for AI to become sentient and a fully functional organism with fully developed eyes to evolve, its probably that cats just got smarter.
Many indie studios have pets in their office, so I can just imagine the idea for this game went like this: "We're thinking of a game similar to Assassin's Creed but it needs to be distinct." *cat jumps on the table and pushes a clipboard off* "Ah Snickers get off the table... W A I T"
I've genuinely never been so emotional at the end of a game. this cat looks like my orange tabby and it's got me crying at how many friends he's lost along the way :(((
And the worst thing is it happened completely out of nowhere, the last time something like this made me cry was at the end of endgame. And even there it wasnt nearly as intense as here.
The fall and the cat friends meowing is the single most heart breaking moment in all of gaming history... It always makes me get up and go cuddle my cat... I hope they are reunited at the end 🥺 Oh my god the ending 😭😭
10 months later if it makes you feel better some dude made an entire map of the game using math and figured out that at the end stray would just need to walk 20 seconds to the right to be reunited with his friends
Loyalty is actually a thing for cats. Most cats would get depressed if their owners went missing for too long. To the point of refusing to eat and eventually getting sick because of the stress if nothing is done. But yeah, some cats are little devils.
My brothers cat almost died when he went to college, she got so depressed that she refused to eat. She is healthy and happy now that he came home, but it really shows just how loyal they are
Some of this game is much better when you can read cat body language. At the very end when the cat is looking at the camera in the direction of the underground city, he does a long blink, which is a cat's way of declaring love and trust for the person their looking at. He's literally saying I love you to the friends he made in the underground city.
The relationship between b12 and the cat was actually very reminiscent of the relationship between me and my own cat, Ebony. She has saved my life twice at this point, like cat has for b12, so when b12 died and cat looked back with a sad face, I couldn't help but start crying. Hell, I'm still crying...
You know what I adore about the ending? It's the slow blink. Cats usually do that to show their content and love to someone. So when it turned their head to the camara and blinked slowly, they either blinked at the player or at the very city they just left. I just find that very cute.
This cat seems really evolved, understanding signs, solving puzzles, talking to people through the bot, doing missions... I fully expect that when he gets back to his pack, they'll return to a fully functioning cat city, with cars and everything :D
@@HazeEmry One thing I've noticed is that Neco (as in the corporation that was responsible for what happened in the city) means cat in Japanese... The plot thickens!!
I love how Doc and Seamus are just a huge homage to Back to the Future, with Doc looking exactly like Doc Brown and Seamus wearing the same orange vest as Marty. Even with the Defluxor being a reference to the flux capacitor and the 1.21 giggawatts.
Seamus was probably not a random name too bcs they bring up a Seamus McFly in BTTF3 as one of Marty's ancestors and a cautionary tale about being hot-headed! It's a neat little detail)
as cute as the "i'll keep you in my ram" at the end was, it also implies that she is going to forget you if she ever turns off because the ram doesn't store anything without power well now i've made myself sad again
@@katdixon8390 well, yes, that's probably the actual implication, just a goofy way of saying "i'll always remember you". but thinking about it realistically, op is sadly correct
@@ashtonisvibing4763 That's not what I was saying-- I'm saying that a phrase like "I'll keep you in my hard drive" would be like "I'll remember you," while "I'll keep you in my RAM" is like saying "I'll be THINKING of you." Like, actively wishing someone well in the moment, not remembering at a later time-- basically the robot equivalent of thoughts and prayers lol
@@katdixon8390 ""I'll keep you in my RAM"" ""I'll be THINKING of you."" Not quite, if the thought was in RAM, then he'd always have the memory ready for quick access, if it was on the CPU cache or directly on the motherboard, then he'd be thinking of the cat at the specific moment
I always loved how sympathetic humans are towards animals when it comes to works of fiction. Mostly because animals can’t speak their mind and are generally less sentient than we are. Knowing that makes it hurt much more when bad things happen to the animal and they don’t know why.
The dead city and the flat’s architecture looks so much like Hong Kong. With all the neon lights scattering the city and the bamboo scaffoldings, I find it very cool.
10:25 For most cats, yes, but ours for some ungodly readon loves being dressed up. She also loves baths, so she's just odd all around. Makes her perfect for us, then I suppose.
In terms of cat loyalty, I once had a cat that would get jealous lol. If he didn't like someone I was hanging out with then he would wedge himself between us. Like he was never mean, but any time someone sat next to me he would wedge himself between us and push them over. I actually had a breakup once cause the guy I was dating kept getting blocked by my cat ahhaha
Random theory, but do you think the other robots could've been humans once, too? B-12 says that they didn't used to act so human, or mimic humans like this by 'eating' or caring for plants. They could've all forgotten their memories like B-12
As a cat person, I very much had to fight the instinct to meow back at the cat every time I pressed the meow button. This game proves that I am dramatically more emotionally invested in cats (and robots) than people. Every time I saw the cat limp or yeowl with pain, I felt like my heart was ripping in half! ... Here's hoping this becomes a series - or better yet, a genre. We need more cats in our games. We need more cats in general.
1:15:30 "This bit is actually not too accurate for a cat" The battery needed to run the train is still in the B12's digital storage, and the train wouldn't work without it. Little did we know that the cat broke out B12 purely because he needed the battery.
If I had a nickel for every game about a cat surviving in a post apocalyptic cyberpunk world I'd have two nickels, which isn't a lot but it's weird it happened twice.
i hope RT knows that there's an achievement for napping one hour on the robot at 1:02:50 edit: well on the robot or anywhere that you can nap, i don't remember

Hate the time waste. Wants you to beat the game in 2 hours which might add up if you mess up. Then 1 hour catnap. Then replay the game again because you have to scratch in every chapter and switching chapter dosent count
Murtaugh and Noomi are grade A cat names and I hope they get unlimited kibbles and catnip. Fuck it, I hope all of the cats get them. Everyone on the team too sure. RIP Oliver, Riggs and Ivy.
{ 4:37 } The bucket spoke to the cat. "No, take me to the fan! Go to the fan" The cat of course listened, as the bucket has spoken "Drop me into the fan cat, now!" The cat listened of course, but doing so murdered the bucket! How could you??
So far, this reminds me of Rain World: an animal trying to survive in a dead place that they don't belong in. Granted, I've only watched 6 minutes of the video, so we'll see.
@@MatchaBunBunTea I believe RT said he wouldn't play rain world on stream/for his channel at some point IIRC his reasoning is that it would be too stressful
Cats are almost perfectly adapted to survive after a human extinction event. They are cunning, resourceful of modest size so energy requirements are low. While still being incredibly agile and efficient hunters. And if there are other sentient creatures they can integrate themselves into their lives. Just as they did with humans. Cats affectively domesticated themselves rather than being domesticated by us. So unlike many dog breeds they don't need humans to survive, they rely on us because it's easier. Not because it's necessary
20:43 "So anyway, i said to the chef, 'you mean a shrimp fried this rice?' and then he said-" My raycons: Low Battery The fucking timing on this was amazing.
did not think this game would make me feel like crying- that poor little drone man... the music that one robot was playing was oddly beautiful tho, almost haunting but serene, really fits the basically post-apocalyptic world they're in
People say cats aren't loyal, but I was attacked by a possum once and my cat charged in and murdered it despite it being three times his size. RIP Tiger, the most good boy
Wow, I cannot not remember the last time a form of media has made me feel emotional to the point of tears. Seeing how much the cat cared for b-12 and laying right next to them after they passed away really did it for me, especially when you know how rare and beautiful it is to receive affection from a cat.

I really love how the robots love humans. It's a nice subversion from the usual robot stories where they rally against humanity for a plethora of reasons. It's also really cute that they like the cat.
On my playthrough, I didn't find the memory that explained where the Zurks came from, so they were just this unexplained and absolutely terrifying horror element.
I wasn't paying attention, where did the Zurks come from?

This is just a game about the lengths a cat will go to to get outside
and then back inside
how did I not realize this until now.
@@khannywanny it wouldn’t be a cat if it didn’t immediately try to get back inside
One of our cats snuck out of our front door. When I realized she was gone I freaked out, because we lived on a high-traffic road. But she had just jumped the gate into our backyard and was sitting at the back door meowing indignantly to be let back in.
You know what's interesting? The characters don't seem to actually speak English to the cat: in fact it might also be just speaking in the language *for* the cat. The text must only be for us to read, but to the cat B-12 is basically translating in cat-tongue! Technology really has surpassed.
They speak a robot language they made which B-12 translates for us/cat to understand, as explained in a memory. I don't know if this is what you were saying or not?
@@galaxycat9966
It's also explained when first eaching the slums as B-12 states that he'll try to translate between Cat and Guardian.
I guess if they have the technology to transfer a human consciousness to a robot, then understanding the brain well enough to know cat-language shouldn't be too hard.

That slow blink at the very end had some extra effect on me.
My cat does that often when I talk to her.
Cats do that because they trust and/or love you. Think of it like "I feel so safe with you I can close my eyes and not fear for my safety".
it made me burst into tears. it was such a good detail.
Your cat really loves you if she does that a lot! You must be an extraordinary cat owner!

Based on the cat collapsing and then the fade out/cut to a door opening I'd guess the cat was probably down there for a while recovering and they just skipped over it since it would be unnecessary time wasted to show it. Although imo it felt somewhat abrupt and I half expected to be limping around for the first section before someone patched us up

This game has a dedicated Meow button. 10/10, GOTY.
ARE YOU ALSO WATHCING BDG???
I could honestly see it being GOTY. It has incredible world building, amazing design of the world and robot characters, great music score. I kinda hope it gets some type of reward.
@@tanzyvat5834 Oh absolutely, I know people are joking but I've been playing it and absolutely ADORE the game
If this game doesn’t at least get nominated for game of the year there will be riots

I was not expecting this deep of a story line from a game that’s main mechanic is being a cat
When this game was announced I was hyped, but I kinda thought it would be a joke. Seeing this playthrough really just shows how much love is in this game. Not only for cats but for the work and gaming meowdium (I'm not sorry) as a whole. Genuinely a great game, an amazing story, and a lovely experience
I expected a fixed perspective puzzle game similar to gardens between with timelie elements, the fact the game is this big after 2 years of hearing almost nothing was the BEST surprise I could ask for
@@urbiznesnunuv6938 You mean you "expected a fixed PURR-spective puzzle game?" :D
@@aderpyaxolotl god dammit 😂
I expected something like timelie yeah
People give the game too much shit because it won awards. But I think it’s deserving. It’s a wonderful little experience.
At the beginning when you're being lead on by the computer screens, if you meow at the camera's they do a little wiggle at you in return. It's so cute.
Nice
I'm glad they credited the cats. However, 23 cats in the office seems like an insufficient number of cats
they captured the chaotic essence of a cat, with their ability to make things fall over and break.
Also, those cats are meowing too much for the feral kind, makes me wonder if that is to imply they used to be pets, or i'm just overthinking it
The meowing is probably for our sake, really. It's probably hard to get across genuine cat concern otherwise.
My 2feral cats I adopted when they were grown ups say other wise, in the morning they start crying and everytime they hear our voices
"Feral" cat means a former domesticated animal that went back to living without human supervision, but often near humans or inside their city. Just as "feral pigs" are not the same species as "wild hogs". And these cats don't look like wildcats... and as you said, adult cats only meow to get human attention.
While there is a species of wildcat in Japan -- the solitary Iriomote mountain cat (Prionailurus bengalensis iriomotensis, a subspecies of the Bengal cat) that is endemic to the small island of Iriomote (Okinawa Prefecture). But those would never live in a ruined city.
@@TF2CrunchyFrog there is lack of context there but thank you for the fun fact
@@laum5371 I think the context here is, that he noticed that I confused the word feral with wild and corrected me.
While also pointing out that a wild cat wouldn't be in the city areas to begin with.
I’m convinced that Stray is secretly a Kirby game or a game set in the Kirby universe for a number of reasons:
1) You play as a cute and lovable character that you would die to protect.
2) You get to meet a numerous amount of characters in the world with their own unique backstories and personalities.
3) You face against Cthulhu-esque monster and creatures for their sole purpose of making you their next meal.
4) You have a sidekick that helps you along your journey where at the end of the game, they either sacrifice themselves to save you and everyone or return to their own home.
But regardless on what you think, this game definitely deserves GOTY for the sole purpose of having a dedicated Meow button 🐱
5) The ending **REALLY** looks like the start of Kirby and the Forgotten Land
And then there’s the fact that it’s set in an abandoned city

this game was directed by Larry the cat, Chief Mouser of the Cabinet Office of the United Kingdom at 10 Downing Street. A brown and white tabby, Larry directed the game as a metaphor for the current state of UK politics, as well as a representation of his own personal views on London city. An anonymous Member of Parliament purchased Larry a high end gaming PC so that Larry could play a role in the development of Stray from his residence at 10 Downing street. While Stray is his first title, Larry has always exhibited a passion for game design, and has expressed his joy at seeing his game on store shelves.
U.K. did go pretty fascism, sad that they never delivered on brexit.
You have me thinking of the emotionless robots at the end in a new light
What he said but cooler
I read it in Mark Felton voice
I love at the end the cat just slowly blinks(the sign of love for cats) which shows that the animators and all the people who have worked on this game really put their heart and soul into it. The fact that they were able to patch plot holes SO well is absolutely amazing. this is an amazing game 100% 11/10. Also the first game that got me actually stressed on how it would turn out, and crying like a baby
I love how everyone just assumes the cat is smart enough to know exactly what it’s doing
Even the sons name is a back to the future reference! In the third movie, Marty goes back to 1885 and meets his Irish ancestor, who’s name is Seamus. Really cool and sweet :) awesome play through ^-^
His rainbow holo hat and red-orange vest are also a nod to Marty's future garb.
seamus is also marty’s middle name!!
I'm so glad that they did like pop culture references, rarely see those in games now
The third movie is underrated in my opinion
Exploration games are by far one of the best gaming experiences. Journey and Abzu are similar to this game and were also phenomenal.
Also: Cat
LOVE abzu!!!!!
Journey changed my life honestly. The most beautiful thing I have seen. And the music, OH the music.
I cried the first time I beat Journey
C a t
Oh yeah, Jack said so too. Cool
I'm so happy you played this game 😭😭 my only criticism of Stray is that there's no cat customization. But an orange cat becoming the savior of a new civilization thanks to its chaotic cat nature is somehow fitting
The fact that the cat is orange actually gives minor context clues (mostly that orange cats are male about 80% of the time) so they wouldn’t have wanted to add customization if they were intending on giving that little hint. Considering how the studio seems to feel towards cats, I feel that it’s actually pretty reasonable to think it may have been intentional.
As someone who owns an orange cat it is incredibly fitting
My issue is the speed run achievement is 2 hours. No room for forgetting passwords or routes
@@cagethelonewolf speed run for a reason
:O it’s firestar/rusty!!! (Haha dumb wc refrence)
1:28:00 Small detail: That slow blink the Cat does into the camera; a slow blink is a sign of trust and friendship. Basically, they're saying thank you to you, the player
Cats can be pretty loyal. Our dog got attacked by a couple cats a long time ago and our cat jumped in to help her. Likewise our cat would always accompany us when one of us would be doing things outside and attack thinks like snakes and rats when they got close. My cousins also had a cat who ripped out a pitbull’s eyeball (he got injured as well) when the pit bull mauled their little dog.
It's not typical, since cats havent been domesticated as long as dogs or been bred to be as dependant on humans, but definitely there are cats who are fiercely loyal
@@PointsofData I don't think it's a matter of how long cats have been domesticated, so much as it is their personality. Some cats run from threats, some will attack it, just as some cats will run from a threat to a human, or attack the threat to protect their companion, cat or human
Now I know why cats like to knock things over an edge. They just wanted to press the triangle button to see what would happen.
I like your pfp, I'm assuming your username is also a joke about our favorite slime?

Honestly cats are very self sufficient so it wouldn't surprise me if they just knew it. In the wild most cats don't even live in groups. Humans just don't see them as smart cause they don't listen to humans commands a lot of the time
Reject humanity, become cat 🐈
I mean, if it was enough time for AI to become sentient and a fully functional organism with fully developed eyes to evolve, its probably that cats just got smarter.
@@byakuyatogami2905 bro, a cat isn't going to solve the social problems of a robot world. This cat is definitively smarter than any other cat.
Cats slow blink to show their love to someone, so when stray slow blinked at the end at the city (b-12) he was saying love you to friend.
Many indie studios have pets in their office, so I can just imagine the idea for this game went like this:
"We're thinking of a game similar to Assassin's Creed but it needs to be distinct."
*cat jumps on the table and pushes a clipboard off*
"Ah Snickers get off the table... W A I T"
I've genuinely never been so emotional at the end of a game.
this cat looks like my orange tabby and it's got me crying at how many friends he's lost along the way :(((
played this game the day it released, sobbed violently at the end
Welp, a sad game it is, then, I guess; can't handle those, unfortunately
I sobbed violently at the start when the cat falls from the cliff, gets up limping and passes out
And the worst thing is it happened completely out of nowhere, the last time something like this made me cry was at the end of endgame. And even there it wasnt nearly as intense as here.
Man I havent cried in like 2 years and this has legit broken me to the point im just bawling my eyes out
@@rageixi1422 (-;-;)-
The fall and the cat friends meowing is the single most heart breaking moment in all of gaming history... It always makes me get up and go cuddle my cat... I hope they are reunited at the end 🥺
Oh my god the ending 😭😭
10 months later
if it makes you feel better some dude made an entire map of the game using math and figured out that at the end stray would just need to walk 20 seconds to the right to be reunited with his friends
Loyalty is actually a thing for cats. Most cats would get depressed if their owners went missing for too long. To the point of refusing to eat and eventually getting sick because of the stress if nothing is done.
But yeah, some cats are little devils.
My brothers cat almost died when he went to college, she got so depressed that she refused to eat. She is healthy and happy now that he came home, but it really shows just how loyal they are
Why indie devs? Why must you make me emotionally invested in these cute characters only to see them suffer?
THEY CAN’T KEEP GETTING AWAY WITH THIS
Suffering is the most common human feeling. The one thread that can link us all.
I can’t be the only one who noticed how close the “Neco” in “Neco Corp” is to “Neko”, the Japanese word for “cat”.
The cats own Neco Corp
The cats destroyed humanity
every one did
the orange cat is the ceo of neco corp
it absolutely had to be intentional. first thing i thought of when i saw that
Some of this game is much better when you can read cat body language. At the very end when the cat is looking at the camera in the direction of the underground city, he does a long blink, which is a cat's way of declaring love and trust for the person their looking at.
He's literally saying I love you to the friends he made in the underground city.
Ah cats and psychological horror, my two favorite things in a game
Is this considered gap moe?
@@HazeEmry gap meow more like
The relationship between b12 and the cat was actually very reminiscent of the relationship between me and my own cat, Ebony. She has saved my life twice at this point, like cat has for b12, so when b12 died and cat looked back with a sad face, I couldn't help but start crying. Hell, I'm still crying...
You know what I adore about the ending? It's the slow blink. Cats usually do that to show their content and love to someone. So when it turned their head to the camara and blinked slowly, they either blinked at the player or at the very city they just left.
I just find that very cute.
The face of the kitty when they were about to fall made my heart crumble.

I love how Doc and Seamus are just a huge homage to Back to the Future, with Doc looking exactly like Doc Brown and Seamus wearing the same orange vest as Marty. Even with the Defluxor being a reference to the flux capacitor and the 1.21 giggawatts.
Seamus was probably not a random name too bcs they bring up a Seamus McFly in BTTF3 as one of Marty's ancestors and a cautionary tale about being hot-headed! It's a neat little detail)
as cute as the "i'll keep you in my ram" at the end was, it also implies that she is going to forget you if she ever turns off because the ram doesn't store anything without power

@@ashtonisvibing4763 That's not what I was saying-- I'm saying that a phrase like "I'll keep you in my hard drive" would be like "I'll remember you," while "I'll keep you in my RAM" is like saying "I'll be THINKING of you."

@@katdixon8390 ""I'll keep you in my RAM""

Game of the year: Cat game. Absolutely beautiful story and atmosphere AND with cats. Loved watching you play this!
I always loved how sympathetic humans are towards animals when it comes to works of fiction. Mostly because animals can’t speak their mind and are generally less sentient than we are. Knowing that makes it hurt much more when bad things happen to the animal and they don’t know why.
The dead city and the flat’s architecture looks so much like Hong Kong.
With all the neon lights scattering the city and the bamboo scaffoldings, I find it very cool.

In terms of cat loyalty, I once had a cat that would get jealous lol. If he didn't like someone I was hanging out with then he would wedge himself between us. Like he was never mean, but any time someone sat next to me he would wedge himself between us and push them over. I actually had a breakup once cause the guy I was dating kept getting blocked by my cat ahhaha
Chat going AAAAAWWWW everytime the cat did literally anything was so funny
Random theory, but do you think the other robots could've been humans once, too? B-12 says that they didn't used to act so human, or mimic humans like this by 'eating' or caring for plants. They could've all forgotten their memories like B-12
Considering there was more than one mind-transfer pod throughout the city, id say it's not too far off
As a cat person, I very much had to fight the instinct to meow back at the cat every time I pressed the meow button.
This game proves that I am dramatically more emotionally invested in cats (and robots) than people. Every time I saw the cat limp or yeowl with pain, I felt like my heart was ripping in half!
... Here's hoping this becomes a series - or better yet, a genre. We need more cats in our games. We need more cats in general.
1:15:30 "This bit is actually not too accurate for a cat"
The battery needed to run the train is still in the B12's digital storage, and the train wouldn't work without it. Little did we know that the cat broke out B12 purely because he needed the battery.

Cats are almost perfectly adapted to survive after a human extinction event. They are cunning, resourceful of modest size so energy requirements are low. While still being incredibly agile and efficient hunters. And if there are other sentient creatures they can integrate themselves into their lives. Just as they did with humans. Cats affectively domesticated themselves rather than being domesticated by us. So unlike many dog breeds they don't need humans to survive, they rely on us because it's easier. Not because it's necessary
No no, Cats domesticated humans silly
