Evaluation

CAT & ONION is a short, self-contained adventure game made by a solo developer. It launched on March 12, 2024 and was explicitly designed and marketed as a complete 30–60 minute experience with no post-launch content cycle in mind. The store description describes it as a finished product with a defined playtime and no mention of expansions, updates, or ongoing additions. The developer's post just before launch (March 10, 2024) expressed pride in completing his first solo game and excitement about starting a *new* game next — not adding to this one. Post-launch activity consisted of a UI and bug-fix patch (March 21, 2024) and a soundtrack release (March 26, 2024). No further updates have been posted since then. The only DLC is the game's soundtrack, which shipped two weeks after launch and is not a content expansion. There are no unreleased DLC items, no announced future content, and no roadmap. The developer has not communicated any plans to add content to the game. CAT & ONION launched as a finished product and remains complete.

About this game

CAT & ONION is a short adventure game. Find items, talk to to characters and help a friend in need. It's a bit of a fever dream, while also making just enough sense.

You play as a cat who wakes up with a craving for PANCAKES. However, this quest for pancakes does not go as planned and you have to make a tiny cosmic detour.

The game takes 30-60 minutes to complete and I hope it will leave you with a smile.
