This was cute! I thought the graphics were nicely polished, and the combination of silent incremental idle game with story cutscenes you personally cue yourself when you're ready for them is exactly what I want from a narrative idler.
Could you add the song that Kato shows you from their album to the universe drive ost thing? As far as i can tell it's not on there and it'd be great to have it with the rest!
That song is available separately! https://mek9.bandcamp.com/album/press-f
Absolutely loved this adorable game ^~^
How cutttttee ♡˖꒰ᵕ༚ᵕ⑅꒱
Wait... is the anime that Kato has only watched up to episode 7 actually "SSSS Gridman"? Because from the description it really sounds like it.
EDIT: oh and Kato has also played Outer Wilds, it seems. A cat person of culture.
Nice! Love it!
The game actually made me cry at the end... I loved it.
I hope I get to see you again someday, Star Cat!
really enjoyed playing this game.
i am in love with kato, thank you so much for this game its great
Very nice game.
This is a solid little idle game, made great by thoughtful writing. Well done!
Kato el Gato is really excellent.

Yup, same.
Anyone else got this error and managed to solve it?
/usr/lib/libcurl.so.4: version `CURL_OPENSSL_3' not found (required by ./space_mech_pilot)
Hi! The linux build might be outdated, can look into this for you!
No worries, not urgent. Looks like a cool game. Thanks for the sale.
Interesting. Why does this game even need curl?
I was able to get it to run ok (not using the itch launcher) by installing the libcurl-compat package and using:
$ LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libcurl.so.3 ./launch.sh
I'm not sure why the dependency on libcurl exists, but it would be nice to update to work with contemporary libcurl.
Thanks for suggesting the solution.
