I dont have words for this game, i was so good, relaxing and funny to play. it really had heart in it, i loved every part of the game (and the Lucifer being a Cat was really funny hahhaha) <3
my partner want to voice act this game with me
very :3c
I have not left a comment about games on here. But I just need to share my thoughts this was the most beautiful 7 hours of playing a game of my life. The characters were amazing and flawed and written in such an amazing manner. I love seeing queer people being happy. As someone who is Afro-latina and queer this was a beautiful game and I felt quite represented by the characters. Also the puns were so fucking hilarious props to the writers who wrote them in this game! I feel the conversation were so realistic to how people talk to one another it can be awkward, funny, heartfelt, and so many other things. I loved this! The credit music was amazing. Thank you for sharing this beautiful game.
Does anyone know where to find the ladder???
This game is one of the most beautiful things I have ever played. I laughed, I cried, I had the best time. Sean's song is so beautiful and tragic. Thank you for gracing me with this game. Love, from the bottom of my heart.
this is epic- tho it is weird that the elevator still works when the power goes out
fun, scary, new!
cant have sex with the snink (snake twink) :(
I can't believe I played heart and soul with Sean and we absolutely KILLED IT!!!
Playing this game three times to get the good ending was THE BEST THING I'VE EVER DONE I LOVE THIS. Also shout out to my babes Oliver ily <
the best game i've ever played in itch.io. and honestly, one of my favorite games ever. good characters, good jokes, good ambience. 10/10 totally worth playing.
is there a way to save everyone?
yes! sometimes you have to go talk to someone else in order to continue a convo w someone that saves them
oh. my god. literally the most PERFECT game. i played it twice and i was still finding new silly jokes and cutscenes in my second run because the game is so jampacked with them. natalie and sean i love u
come on.... you mean "PURRFECT"
ABSOLUTE CINEMA. i loved it!! And we all got into heaven!!! (took me the after noon and tody in the morning to complete it, 2 hours today and like what, 5 hours yesterday?? or 4?? idk but it flew by !!! totally recomendz!!1!!!111!)
J'attendais de télécharger la maj de valorant. c'était long car je ne captais pas et je voulais un petit jeu pour passer le temps. passer le temps, oui on peut le dire ! 3 heures ! pas une seule fois sur mon téléphone. quand je l'ai regardé c'était à la fin, car, en tant que française, j'avais du mal à deviner le numéro de chatan. je ne faisais que mettre 555. cet échec m'a permis, je crois, de fouiller le jeu de fond en comble. quel plaisir. musique, visuel, le développement des personnages. le jeu m'a vraiment pris. quand j'ai vu qu'il etait 21h j'étais abasourdie. mais quelle bonne nouvelle. génial. ps: j'aurai aimé plus connaître chatan et l'aider :c
MERCI
C’est assez Sigma
It was a fun game, but I could never find Natalie and finish it lol. I got to the point where the lights get shut off, and on your guide, you said to find Natalie, but I couldn't find her anywhere, went to her attic and everywhere else, nope. Still, it was a fun game!
I love this game so much
I'm sad for Lucifur now. Millenia of isolation would drive most anyone insane.
PLS WHY CANT I WRITE MY NAME HOW DO I DO IT RAAAAAAAA
Same I can't do it either so I looked at the comments to see if I was the only person ugh
WHERE IS TORI SOMEONE PLS HELPPPPPPPPPP
if you go up the stairs where the keyboard is, there is a storage space at the top of the stairs, which is difficult to see, if you don't hover over it (where it gives you the grayed out option to go there)
I have also found tori:
- checking out the bottomless pit thing
- checking out the door that doesn't open near Natalie's attic
- in the park graveyard area
- and in the storage closet thing as the other person said
LOVED THISSS!!!! must play game on this site :)
guys i think im too dumb for this like wtf
how to find the light for tori?
Natalie will give u a candle!!<33
also here's how to to natalie's house go all the way through the meowseum, up the escalator, and through the warehouse. there's a back entrance to the house with a little stained glass window next to it ( i just got this from the devlog )
thx smmmmmmm yall r so nice
np!
played this once a few years ago, then again before my birthday in december and i can say i've loved this game all the way through!!
the visuals are simple but that what makes them really interesting, and the exploration/puzzles were one of my favorite parts of the game. the characters are charming and well fleshed out for a shorter game:))
love the message and loveee the song at the end. one of my favorite games/visual novels 🤍
Such a good game!
Decided to do a good ending all easter eggs speedrun, got 1h04.20s (could probs get 45 mins but I had to go slow for the good parts :3)
ABSOLUTE CINEMA!!!!! I wish I found this game wayyyy earlier this is so underrated oh my. GOSH. drawing fan art right NEEEOOOOWWW
is this them in heaven or in the real world?????

heaven bc they didnt know each other before purrgatory
oh ya dat makes sense
who sang at the end????
Just finished this game. Did I just get stabbed? Why do I feel like I'm gonna cry IT'S JUST A GAME
How do I save Kyungsoon and Numa? I can't figure out how to :((((
you have to help numa confess (spoiler)
to kyungsoon!
read her diary in the vent, then help her collect flowers, a poem, and kyungsoon's favorite food. after the confession scene, talk to kyungsoon and make her get up and talk to numa
I think that natalie is just straight up me XD This game is also so awesome so far (i haven't finished it yet)
lyrics;
hey babe dont know if you can hear me
but hows the weather down in Philly
did you ever try that dirty chai?
and is our english ivy still alive?
wish i could see you one more time
hug you kiss you make your lyrics rhyme
back home where nothing ever changes
wish things were different here
but the truth is......
im stuck in purrgatory too
its just not the same without you,boo
think ill take a purrgatory snooze
and maybe ill wake up next to you
ive got the purrgatory blues
yeah it aint a purrgatory cruise
if you can hear this purrgatory tune
just know im thinking of you
hey babe dont fret too much about me
just make sure to feed the budgies daily
you can have my pokemon collection
but give debbie back her old guitar
i think these clouds might dampen my sound
so ill make sure to sing it real loud
up here where nothing really matters
wish i was better off
but the truth is
i would love if someone would help me with the location of the vent!
go up the staircase in the park and look to the left and click the alcove and there u go!
funny thing, i figured it out and i finished the game that night and saved everyone! but thank you
I LOVE THE GAME SO MUCH SO FAR!!! the dialouge is so silly and funny and I LOVEEEE the style ad exploring :3 i love the cat keyboard as well!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i saved them all then we poked at lucifur until he let me in heaven and then i went through the pearly gates (i want more gam i love it sm.) i also love the song sian wrote on the meowboard <33
