A real PC layout, Back that works, faster loading, and animal friends on the way
Version 0.9.5 gives the game a real layout on a computer, makes the Back button go back one step at a time, and starts faster because you download only your own language. Far fewer error screens on slow connections, a few fixes you told us about, and animal friends open on Friday 6 November.
💻 A real layout on a computer
On a wide screen the home page now has two columns: the title and Play on the left, the world map and the Explore cards on the right. In a life you see the scene, the life log and your cat's registration side by side, and the keys still work: Space to pause, 1–4 to choose. Pages like the Collection get a menu rail on the left, so you can jump between them without going home first.
↩️ Back that works, a faster start, fewer error screens
The Back button on your phone or in your browser now goes back one step at a time, and closes an open sheet before it leaves a page. You now download only your own language, so the game opens faster: Japanese drops from 2.7 MB to 1.5 MB, Thai to about half. Far fewer "something went wrong" screens: a slow connection, a phone waking from sleep or a file that arrives late no longer trips the safety screen. Fixed: the "kittens found homes" card after a cat was neutered, and 3 secret goals that could never be won (beat a crow, nap on 3 cars, steal a fish).
🐾 Animal friends, from Friday 6 November
Animal friends open in three parts: home friends on 6 Nov (a dog, a duck, a chicken, a rabbit, a budgie), street friends on 10 Nov, and animals of each country on 14 Nov. Every life's friend is different: its own name, its own personality, its own little habits. Some are shy, some steal your sunny spot. Kittens born from 6 Nov can meet one; a life that has already started keeps the world it was born into.
