So, after having played the prologue some weeks ago, today I wanted to clean my room and was trying to decide which music I wanted to have in my background.

And I found the Project Kat main theme on my phone (which I yoinked from the game with Audacity after I played the game, sorry about that) ... So I set it to endless repeat.

And it really calmed me down and soothed my mind. And I'm actually NOT saying this because I want to simp for this game. It is what actually, genuinely happened.

And I'm grateful for that.

But that's actually not what made me want to write this comment.

The main reason is, that (while listening to it today) I reflected on my experience playing the game, and how it made me feel, and why I liked it so much.

And I think it is because, rather than a horror game, it is a game full of emotions. It is a gentle, a kind horror game. It is a story of a girl struggling to regain something which she lost, and which was very very dear to her. And it is a game about the hope, that she will find it again, eventually.

And I really think there should be more warm-hearted, meaningful games like this, instead of this endless spam of games were it is just about action and fun. I don't want to say that those are bad and that those dont have their place. It's just ... that I really would like for the people, the humans living in our world, to ... maybe to be more kind ... ...

I'd like to give all of you developers a long hug.

Wait Patiently Friend It Well Come Don't Be A Rush

jogo simplesmente incrível! música, arte e cenários agradáveis e muito bem feitos, com toda certeza esse vai pra lista dos meus jogos em 2d favoritos ❤️ansiosa pra continuação

WOW! I love it! I've been wanting the full version, and I hope it comes out soon. The music is beautiful, the drawings too. It's just beautiful! I'm really exited for the full version!

(+1)

Very good. I'm exited for the full version.

(+1)

I see a lot of shitty rpg horror games on here, but this one has me hooked. It would be an actual shame if this doesn't get fully realized because this is just something special.

(+1)

LOVED THIS!!!

(+2)

AMAZING rpg... Can't wait for the full version!

Art, interactions with so many objects, and the 2D aspect just makes this game really good. It would be really sick if there was voice acting for the full version. 

The game was cute however right when I was getting hooked the game ended. Good work, I can't wait for the second part!

(+2)

This is an absolutely charming little demo/tutorial for a cute horror RPG that's heavily inspired by anime/manga (think Another and Corpse Party) and freeware horror JRPGs (think Ib, Mad Father, and The Witch's House). Definitely check it out if you're into that sort of thing! (^• ω •^)

[SPOILERS]

Comments for devs:

  • Gorgeous art and graphics! I especially like the tutorial art, the cute pixel graphics, and the animanga-inspired facial expressions. Kat's cat face :3  is the best.
  • The puzzles are quite easy, but that's to be expected from a tutorial. The desk puzzle (while easy) was very cute! 
  • I'm the type of person who will interact with every bookshelf, every trash can (lol), etc. Would be cool to have more interesting descriptions or Easter eggs or some kind of reward for looking around thoroughly, but maybe Kat just really dislikes school and finds it all boring and better scene interaction is coming? I wanna know more about the school/environment!
  • I quite like the pacing, music, and sense of immersion (especially the tutorial at the beginning – that was a good way to introduce the game's choice mechanic – and the maze scene). Also, I'm sure people have mentioned how cute and atmospheric the club room music is~
  • Kat's snark ('nuff said). She's awesome c:

Can't wait to find out more about Kat's motivations and play the rest of the game! The new PC also looks interesting. 

Great Comment 👍

Thank you so much for your comments :) They're very helpful! We're working hard on the next part! Hope you'll like it :D

Pros and cons are down below) Check out the gameplay here (the game is the 3d there):


Advantages:

1. Darn A-MAZ-ING! I've palyed for a little bit in the video and I am so IMPRESSED! The fact that your actions impact the ending is awesome. I love how many choices there are even at the very start (I hope they all will matter in the full game)!

2. The art style is so cool! The game is so beautiful to look at (both the art and the game itself is super cool)!

3. The music in the room with girls deserves a point in the advanages. Please, pretty please, can this be played more often in the full game. 

4. There are so many interactable objects (which is not exceptional for this kind of games). BUT even each trashcan has it's own comment which does not repeat previous comments about trashcans. Even trashcans, man!

5. Butt.

Disadvantages:

1. The full game is supposed to have lots of endings. I think it would be nice to add in-game achievements, the name of which could be a hint on what to change to get the specific ending.

2. Maybe it would be cool to voice act some lines or add voice cues so the player could imagine how the character sounds like (you don't have to voice act everything, you could do like Mad Father did (few sound cues for characters) or Corpse Party (some lines are voice acted))

Overall:

This is so goos and promising. I am surprised it's free! When will the full version be out? I can't wait! 100/5! But I can not actually rate your game 100/5, so I'll rate 5/5 instead, OK?

Hope my feedback was useful!

(+1)

I also think that some voice effects (like in Mad Father) would add to the atmosphere. Not sure if you would use Japanese voices/lines (I remember in Mad Father, Aya does shriek things like "iie" and "yada" a few times), but that would fit the game perfectly and would be great in key scenes.

(+1)

Thank you for playing, and for your detailed comment! :) We'll address mainly the disadvantages (because there's definitely room for improvement) but we appreciate your other comments of course! (And the trashcans and butt are definitely an advantage, yes)

1. This is a good idea! We plan to have achievements in the game so we'll keep it in mind!

2. We will consider the idea of a partial voice acting, but unfortunately a full voice acting might not be possible due to the extra work and funding that it requires. We've decided to put that work/funding into other important parts of the development for now! 

We don't have a date yet for the full version! (It will take a long while :'D Making video games is hard) but we will announce it on itch.io and our twitter when we have one! So you can keep track of it if you need :) 

Thank you for replying!)

I was thinking about the point regarding in-game achievements, and I guess that would be really beneficial because it would extend the gameplay a lot. You could even add a secret, true ending after getting all the achievements (basically after getting all the other endings) which would be super cool! Maybe a little bit of 4th wall breaking would look nice as a secret ending?) Like when Kat would know that the player keeps replaying the game or something like that.

I just can't wait for the full game to come out!

I liked everything about this game, especially the drawing, it was so incredible, I liked the gameplay and the idea, but I did not understand the story very well 😅. I was hoping the game would be longer. I really enjoyed the game. Special thanks to the game team. "arigato"

Good game! i hope theres a second part!

There Is Friend Second Part Is Coming

Well this is amazing.

Made an account in itch.io just to tell you guys something: you're awesome. Can't wait to see more.

No you're awesome :D Thank you!

(+2)

I really liked the concept of the game!! I look forward to playing the full version when it is finished

Just curious, what did you use to create this game?

Godot Engine :) 

(1 edit) (+2)

Here's the walkthrough, creepy letter and golden envelope :))

2 idiots? More like damn geniuses!

I love how stable the concept is. Most of the horror game focus on just the 'there's ghost. the end' concept. But your game took on the scientific explanation of ghosts BUT there's also what happened when it REALLY paranormal activity. 100/10. The creepiness is so on point. The dialogue make my hair stand. The butt. Beautiful game.

Mmm Nice Comment

i just finished this litlle gem and honestly? i bloody love it, the idea of giving a player multiple options in a 2d horror game just completely caught me off guard! i hope that you guys will get to make it into a full game 

8/10 giveitatrymateitsverygood

They Well Friend

Full Game Still In Progress Soon We'll Be Release

I just recently downloaded an update to this game and windows immediately marked it as a serious threat and a trojan virus, can you explain this? Screenshot

Hi there! Thanks for taking the time to write this. We assure you that Project Kat contains no viruses or malware.

As with any executable file on the internet, there's always a possibility of false negatives. A good way of telling if this is the case is checking virus total: Project Kat 64 bit and Project Kat 32 bit (v1.2.1) - As you can see there are 5 out of 66 anti-viruses that decided the 32 bit version may be dangerous (even though we compile both versions from the same code!), whereas zero did for the 64 bit version.

Anti-viruses tend to be overzealous about packed executables, especially unsigned ones. Ultimately it is up to you to decide whether to trust a random game you downloaded from the internet, but at least make sure you downloaded it from this page and not some sketchy site!

I did not really enjoy this on its own, but I can see groundwork building up a to a great full version. (mild spoilers)

The graphics are good. The VN parts show emotion in the classic manga way, but don't go over the top. I like that.

Billing this as a puzzle is a bit of a stretch. The items gathering part was close to a puzzle, but didn't give you much information, so it didn't even feel like a problem-solving exercise. It felt like "interact with all the things and then move on."

I enjoyed the beginning of the part where it brought up what Kat's disappearance would mean for others, but there was no bite to the insult because (regardless of the canon), it didn't feel to me that Kat got herself into this situation. I would rework this part to include Kat hurting/insulting her [spoiler], and didn't get to apologize for. Bonus if she finds out that part of the ritual caused the hurt in the first place. Then you can add introspection later where Kat realizes what she should have done differently, and grows out of her immature mischievousness.

Rating of this short version is 4/10, but if this game gets a full version, I expect I'd give it 6/10.

They Make There Own Way Friend 

Is There First Game Development

They Only Do In Their Free Time So Is Hard To Develop A Game When Theirs Something Do In Their Life

(+1)

I know I didn't give many compliments, but I do think highly of the devs. They asked for criticism, and I like to be concise.

(+4)

Hi there, thank you for your comments! :) 

We definitely agree that there's several parts in need of some heavy polishing (especially towards the end).

The puzzle aspect of our game is quite light since Project Kat is meant to double as a prologue, so the difficulty is of a tutorial-level. That said, the full game will concentrate more on the different choices you can make. Due to this, the difficulty in the puzzles might come from trying to find one specific solution (for example: finding out if you can befriend the three girls), while finding any solution at all should prove to be quite simple. We will however do our best to create a comfortable difficulty curve as the story progresses. It's obviously not fun if it's too easy (but it's not fun to get stuck either)!

As for your second point, you have some interesting ideas! That part of the game is a little wonky and we plan to fix several details for when we release the full game (as well as add choices and endings) , hopefully it will flow better once we change it.

Thank you for the constructive criticism! We'll do our best to turn your 6/10 into a 9/10 ;) Hope you'll play the full version!

We Hope So Too

Yeah! Is there a newsletter where I can be notified of the full version?

(+1)

You can follow us here on itch.io, or on Twitter! We will definitely make a big fuss when we publish it :D

El juego esta genial. por si alguien que habla español quiere verlo aqui dejo mi video gracias

(+2)

I LOVE ITTTTTT
SOOO GOOOOODDDD

I CAN'T WAIT FOR MORE FROM YOUUUUU!!!!!

THANK YOU!!!!!!!!

Nice name :D 

Hello! I downloaded your game (the 64bit version), but it won't do anything. According to Windows, it's running (because I couldn't delete it afterwards), but nothing happens, no screen pops up. I've tried restarting my computer, re-downloading it, and disabling my firewall, but nothing seems to work. I'm using Windows 10. I hope you can help me :)

Hi there! That's very strange... Can you give us your computer specs (particularly video card)? Are you using a translation patch?

Alternatively, you can send us your logs folder located in %APPDATA%\Godot\app_userdata\Lacie Engine\ to leef6010@gmail.com and we'll take a look!

(1 edit)

Thanks for getting back to me!

First off, that folder doesn't exist on my computer. Was I supposed to install the game in a particular location?/Do I need other software to run the game? (If so, I'm sorry for missing that info)

I'm not using a translation patch.

Here are my specs:

  • OS: Windows 10 64-bit
  • Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-6500 CPU @ 3.20GHz, 3192 Mhz, 4 mag, 4 logikai processzor
  • Memory: 8 GB RAM
  • Graphics: Intel(R) HD Graphics 530
  • Storage: I have more than a Terabyte of free space, so this definetely isn't an issue

I don't know if it changes anything, but my language is set to Hungarian. I've had problems with games not running because they can't work with accents on letters/special characters appearing in folder names, but it isn't really common.

Edit: Tried changing my language to English (United States). Still doesn't work.

Thanks for replying! The logs folder is supposed to be created when the game launches on v1.2.1, inside the Lacie Engine folder we indicated, but maybe the game isn't even getting far enough for that.

Since you're using an Intel HD graphics card, we recommend you update the drivers from the Intel website if possible, as OpenGL support on older Intel drivers tends to be very wonky.

Hi! Just an update on this post - turns out my PC was prioritizing my onboard graphics card (the intel one).  I had no idea I even had another one in this thing. Anyway, with that issue fixed the game runs just fine. I look forward to finally playing it!

-Made a Video. (The Demo)

"can't wait for the full game!"

this game reminds me of the "i dont want to die peppa" video from tiktok

(+1)

I enjoyed the game immensely. I see a lot of potential and I look forward to hopefully seeing a more fleshed out experience in the future.

(+1)

I really do love everything about this game so far. Both the pixel art and the anime style is perfect, the story is mysterious and hooks you in, and there's a real sense of exploration and a need to searh every nook and cranny. that being said, my choices don't feel as though they have any impact as of right now. I know it's just a demo and the whole "there's always another way" thing will be expanded on in the full release, but at least show the girls with shorter har if I cut it.

(+2)

i just finished the game and not only am i in love with the art , the music and the smoothness of the game puts you in the atmosphere. i really cant wait till this game completely comes out to be able to play it myself . its very self explanatory i have played so many rpg games and i can say i truly enjoyed the how the game was not giving you the answers but not throwing you off completely.

(+2)

this game seems like it could become something truly awesome, maybe itll be the witchs house of this decade !! love the graphics and the way the characters are portayed <3

It's a great game.  Nice atmosphere and beautiful decoration.  I hope you will create a GREAT game in the future♥️

(+1)

I love everything about this game, puzzle and the art. Soo pretty! I cannot wait to play moree! Keep it up~♥

(I made a lil playthrough : https://youtu.be/Km0OGQj-9cg )

The very first patterned door was pretty confusing as it gave off the clear impression of a glass door looking into a striped hallway. Everything else was pretty clear. Visual novel controls would also be nice to have, particularly dialogue lookback.

I like how the puzzles are grounded in consistent logic, most intuitive approaches (other than 'just rip the tape off the box') work as expected, and there's fun responses to trying to use the lighter in inappropriate places.

(+3)

I loved it! Looking forward to the finished product

Greatly enjoyed it and can't wait to see where you take it from here. Just from the short time spent with her, Kat is an endearing character that makes you want to see her make it out safely. Even with one ending, I'll still likely end up replaying it a few times to try and see all the different paths possible.

(+2)

This is incredible! I can't wait to see where the project goes from here.

(+3)

i just finished it and !!!! omg !!!!!! it was so good i loved the art style n the storyline !!! everything was amazing :D 

it starts with a black screen and i cant seem to know how to start it, can someone tell me how

Hi there! Sorry to hear that you're having trouble! Could you give us some more details about the issue and your computer?

(1 edit)

hi, I am having the same problem where it just shows a black screen

Are any of you using a translation patch?

Alternatively, you can send us your logs folder located in %APPDATA%\Godot\app_userdata\Lacie Engine\ to leef6010@gmail.com and we'll take a look!

no i'm not
