Evaluation
Pet the Cat launched on Steam on July 17, 2026. The developer, MEWSTURBO, has been highly active since launch, shipping multiple balance and bug-fix patches within the first few days (versions 1.4b, 1.5a, 1.5b, 1.5c, and 1.5d), demonstrating strong post-launch engagement.
More importantly, in a post celebrating 2,000 copies sold within 24 hours of launch (July 18, 2026), the developer officially confirmed that a new content update titled "Shadow Meow" (working title) is coming to the game. They describe it as introducing "an entirely new gameplay experience" aimed at players who have finished the game or are pursuing harder difficulties. The project was noted to be in the preparation phase at the time of announcement, with more details promised in future updates.
This makes it clear the game is not a finished, static package — additional content has been explicitly announced and is on the way.
