PeakCats 🐾

Adopt super cute pet cats in PEAK. They wander around, nap, groom, climb after you, meow and purr,

have their own status bar just like yours, and can be picked up, cuddled, petted and thrown. Works in multiplayer.

Features

• 8 cats: Snowball (white), Shadow (black), Marmalade (ginger tabby), Patches (calico), Tux (tuxedo),

Smokey (grey), Sapphire (siamese) and a fluffy Tabby Kitten. Each has its own personality (lazy or playful) and voice.

• Alive: walk, trot, sit, groom, stretch, loaf, curl up and sleep (with slow breathing), bat at things,

stick with their owner whenever they're awake (sleeping cats stay put), slow-blink at you, ear twitches and tail swishes. Eyes and pupils really move.

• Physics: cats are real rigidbodies. They bump into you and into things, always land on their feet,

climb walls with stamina, hop up ledges and jump down after you.

• Status bar: stamina, injury, hunger, cold, heat, poison, drowsiness and weight, shown above each cat like the player bar.

Cats feel the same things you do (night cold, fog, blizzards, desert sun, lava, falls) and pass out if the bar fills.

Campfires and cuddles warm them up, naps heal them, and you can feed them (or they'll eat food you drop). Food does exactly what it does for you: the same hunger, and the same effects (a Big Lollipop means a sugar rush, then a drowsy crash; energy drinks make them zoomy). Bad berries poison cats too, and cats refuse mushrooms, cactus, mandrake, aloe and scorchberries (configurable).

• Carry things: give a cat any item and it wears it on its back. The item's real weight counts on the cat's status bar.
• Hold them: pick a cat up and it sits in your arms (the hand slot, not your hotbar). Switching slots puts it down, or you can stash it in a backpack. It weighs nothing and keeps its state, so a sleeping cat stays asleep in your arms.

Hold still for 30 s and an awake cat falls asleep on you. A sleeping cat in your arms slowly calms you (a tiny stamina bonus).

• Petting: hold left click for about half a second. Your hand strokes its back, it purrs and kneads, and hearts float up.
• Kittens grow up: new cats start as kittens (bigger eyes, squeakier meows, extra playful) and grow 30% bigger into adults

over 30 minutes of play together (configurable). Petting and feeding help them grow. You can also adopt a grown cat directly.

• Collars: pick a collar for your cat when adopting: red, pink, sky blue, mint, sunshine, lavender, black or rainbow, each with a little gold bell.
• Campfire naps: when you rest at a lit campfire, cats wander over, curl up by the flames and doze off, purring.
• Shoulder riding: pop your cat onto your shoulders (on top of your backpack if you wear one). It loafs, purrs and naps there while

your hands stay free to climb, and it adds a little weight to your bar. It hops off by itself if you pass out.

• Rope and vine climbing: cats scramble up ropes and vines right behind you, following your exact path, and hop off where you got off.
• Eats like a scout: food gives a cat exactly what it gives you: the same hunger, and the same effects. A Big Lollipop means a sugar rush

(infinite stamina, gold bar), then a drowsy crash. Energy drinks make them zoomy, and bonus stamina shows as a yellow strip. Cats won't touch mushrooms,

cactus, mandrake, aloe or scorchberries (configurable).

• Survives the whole mountain: cats keep well clear of lava, run when the Kiln's lava rises, hate water (they wait at the edge and

groom themselves dry), and dig their claws in when the wind howls.

• Comes along: cats you have in the airport lobby come with you to the island (and back after the run) - they hop in right next to you once you wake up on the beach.
• Never lost: if a cat falls off the world or gets left behind when the mountain moves on, it lands on its feet next to you.
• Loyal: if you pass out, your cat rushes to your side and waits, worried, until you're back up.
• Ghost cats: if you fully die, your cat's spirit goes with
