Second news:

For the release of Cats and Seek: Zoo, we collaborated with a few fellow game developers to create some bundles. Feel free to check them out if you’re interested in their games too :D

Find Our Frogs & Cats
A bundle with Find My Frogs: Branches from My Eye Studio. In our game you look for hidden cats, while in theirs you look for hidden frogs XD
Find Love and Cats
A bundle with Bits Of Love by Milk Tea Creatives. We’re both game developers from Yogyakarta, Indonesia ^^ In our game you look for cats, while in theirs you look for love XD (It’s a VN, so visual novel lovers should definitely check it out!)
Cats and Spreadsheets
This one might look a bit random, but if you enjoy doing the same thing over and over.. like clicking hundreds of cats or inputting hundreds of data entries, this is the perfect bundle for you haha XD We’re collaborating with Rinanda Hidayat, a solo developer from Medan, Indonesia, who has a really unique series of games. You should check out their developer page!

That’s our collaboration with some fellow game developers. Feel free to check them out :D

Third news!

Just like with our previous releases, this time we’re also announcing the next game we will be working on :D

Please welcome… Cats Around Us: Pizza Boy!

View game page

Yes, the next title in the Cats Around Us series is Pizza Boy! and will be a collaboration with Chonk Turtle as the comic illustrator ^^

Please help us by wishlisting it, everyone! :D

That’s all the good news from us for now.
Hope it helps brighten up your weekend! :D

Don't forget to play and review Cats and Seek: Zoo!

Love

Psssttt.. Estu prepared a little gift for you all ^^ Here’s an illustration from Estu. Perhaps you’ve come across this grandpa on your timeline with his two cute cats that never stop fighting every time they’re being photographed, the scene was just so funny and cute.

Hi everyone! :D How are you all doing? We hope you're all well and happy as always. After taking a short break at the end of April, we're back with some updates about our games. Yay! First, about Cats and Seek: Zoo .. last week, Estu finally finished drawing all the zoo areas! No

Hi everyone! :D
How are you all doing?
We hope you're all well and happy as always.

After taking a short break at the end of April, we're back with some updates about our games. Yay!

First, about Cats and Seek: Zoo.. last week, Estu finally finished drawing all the zoo areas! Now it's my turn to implement all the illustrations into the code :D I'm aiming to finish everything by the end of this month so we can join Steam Next Fest with peace of mind ^^

Here are some sneak peeks of the last zoo areas:

View game pageSomeone asked in the discussion forum whether there will be an open volunteer call for translating Cats and Seek: Zoo. Yes, there will be! We'll open the translation volunteer registration once we've finalized the total number of cats in the game. Please wait a little longer ^^

Next update is about the Cats Around Us series. Does anyone remember the image we shared in last March’s post with no context? That was actually a sneak peek for the next title in the series. We’ve named it Cats Around Us: Pizza Boy, and for this game, we’re collaborating with Chonky Turtle!

Right now, we don't have a store page for it yet. We'll announce it in the upcoming updates ^^

And our last update is... we were actually supposed to post this back in mid-May after we got back from our break, but we felt a little embarrassed dropping just 1 post to announce 1 thing and on top of that it's about a vacation XD so we just decided to bundle everything together here!

So yeah, we recently went back to Japan ~~for a little vacation and~~ to scout out the next city for our Japan Cats and Seek series ^^ and we stopped by Kobe!

Just 30 minutes from Osaka by train, Kobe has a much more relaxed vibe compared to its neighbor. We were lucky to visit during Golden Week though.. Golden Week meant the city was packed with families enjoying their holiday, and we also kept crossing paths with groups of young people hanging out and having fun in parks and open spaces. We spent a few days just wandering around and capturing as many cool moments as we could for the game.

We're planning to start development on Cats and Seek: Kobe right after Zoo releases, so keep an eye out for updates in our future posts :D

That's all for our quick updates this time.
We hope everything we planned for June goes smoothly, and we wish you all a wonderful and happy June as well ^^

Love

UB & Estu

P.S. Don't forget to wishlist our upcoming games if you haven't yet Cats and Seek: Zoo and Cats Around Us: Yarn Ball! thank you all ^^

January

At the start of January, we officially announced the next title in the Cats Around Us series: Black Cat! This month also marked the first time we shared an early prototype of what would later become Pictective.

We wrapped up the month with an exciting surprise collab release with Toge Production to celebrate their birthday: Cats and Seek: Togeland!

March

In March, Cats and Seek: Dino Park officially launched on consoles! A huge thank you to our wonderful partners at Silesia Games for bringing our games to console platforms.

This month also marked a very special milestone.. we tried collaborating with the community for the first time to translate in-game text, starting with Cats and Seek: Tokyo! It was an exciting step, and we're so grateful for everyone's help.

April

In April, Cats and Seek: Dino Park (which had launched on consoles the previous month) had the wonderful opportunity to be included in the Creators: East, South and SE Asian collection on Xbox.

This month also brought a very exciting milestone.. the prototype we first shared back in January was officially announced as being in production, under its new title Pictective!

We then continued the excitement by releasing the fifth title in the Cats and Seek series: Cats and Seek: Tokyo, completing our Japan travel trilogy.

May

In May, we spent most of our time focusing on visuals! We held a fun community vote to decide the character design for Doma in Pictective, and the response was amazing! thank you to everyone who joined in!

We also gave our Noobzilla logo a fresh makeover :D

Toward the end of the month, we released the demo for Cats Around Us: Black Cat!

June

This month, Cats Around Us: Black Cat joined two massive events: Steam Next Fest and Southeast Asian Games Showcase: Summer Game Fest Edition!

Those events were a total game-changer for our wishlists, helping Cats Around Us: Black Cat land on the Popular Upcoming charts!

In October, our awesome partners at Silesia Games released our next game on consoles. This time it was Cats and Seek: Kyoto's turn!

Our beloved composer, Mijil Pamungkas, dropped the awesome album Noobzilla: Original Soundtracks, Vol.1 on Spotify this month! If you're a fan of the tunes in our Noobzilla games, go check it out and give it a listen ^^

We also participated in this month’s Steam Next Fest. This time, it was Pictective’s turn!

November

This month, our amazing community came together again in full force to help translate the in-game text!

This time, Pictective received incredible support from so many friends in the community, and we successfully translated it into more than 30 languages!

A massive, heartfelt thank you to every single one of you ^^

December

We kicked off the final month of 2025 with the release of Pictective!

We also joined the annual Southeast Asia Games Onward 2025 event, powered by hundreds of amazing VTubers and SEA content creators.. Big thanks so much to SEAGamethetic for the invitation!
