Rocket-in-Bottle
Hi Planetary Architects,
Yay! Chapter 3 finale and Chapter 4 have arrived!
Is this the v1.0 Release?
Almost there, so it's Version 0.9.9! Most of the game will now function like it's v1.0. It's delivered so that our Early Access supporters can get their hands on it early!
New Content
- TongSui and DimSum star systems for the Chapter 3 Finale. Save the poor kitten!
- Early Access Players: Please head to Galala Valley if you have finished everything in the last Content update.
The Elders of the Milky Way would like to test your skills and resolve.
- 5 new Star Systems and a new gameplay progression in Chapter 4!
Distant, abandoned lands where the ancestors of the Cats once thrived.
- For details on Chapter 4 please see the post (or just play it!):
Changes
- The Dream Garden is now in Paperbag Point, in-game (in case you haven't played since the patch before last).
- Endings for each star system can now be replayed by visiting the respective Memories (see end of post).
- Difficulty curve in Nabe, Mochi, Masala and Baozi star systems has been adjusted significantly.
- Experience with Senpai in the Tempura star system has been improved.
- Minor-Tree-of-Life is now Heart of the Oasis and has a new gameplay. Heart of the Wetland has new graphics.
- Catcus Habitats have new rules and are more fun!
- Summoning Bonded Kami will now grant you extra energy and would be a good option when you are running out of Kami Energy during an expedition.
- Various interface changes and many icon updates.
Fixes

- A glitch with Razer Synapse and other customizable gamer keyboards/mice has been fixed.

Hm... I haven't played Nekokami for Some Time...
Don't worry! To allow our players to recall the stories, we have added a new Memory feature! In each finished star system, players will find Memories that they can visit:
If you haven't been playing for a LONG TIME, Shops, Daily Summary, and a lot of new features are waiting for you!
For details, see:
Thank you all for your support of Nekokami's Early Access. As always, please let us know any feedback, bugs, or suggestions in whichever channel suits you!
Love,
