I played it on my Steam Deck. It shows as Unsupported for the Deck and if you try to start the game you will get a black screen with only the audio, so go to Properties - Compatibility - Force the use of a specific Steam Play compatibility tool and choose Proton 3.16-9. Make sure to save a lot, as sometimes the game will crash. It´s a very cute game, although on the shorter side. The price is very fair, so I def recommend it if you´re looking for a sweet, fun, relaxing VN.

It's actually has a pretty cute story line and really worth it. The graphic is amazing, the music and the dialogue is great as well~ and most importantly, all of the cats are the cutest <3

well. i bought the cat dating game, and no regrets! charming art, awesome music and most importantly CUTE CATS!!!! my personal favourites were mason, reese and graves especially <3 though at full price it is pretty short (i bought on sale, however) but the quality of the game is undeniable! it would be great if there were other achievements and tidbits to get through to lengthen playtime and justify the price. overalll, very cute game!!

I was expecting this to be hilariously bad but then it just ended up being legitimately hilarious and cute. Major disappointment that faded instantly as I saw Graves, the cafe owner. I have to say that the game isn't perfect. Parts feel a bit rushed and there are some minor errors in the writing, but they are few and far between. The cast of delightful characters more than makes up for it. The art style is lovely and I have to give props to Samm Neiland for the music. The romantic moments felt so cinematic partly because the music was top tier. If you like cats, cute people, cafes, or romance, give this game a try!

I am astounded that this game is $19.99 if not discounted. I got this game in the summer sale for $1.99 and for *that* price I am happy with the purchase because the game was pretty simple and cute, and I like games that I can complete in under 10 hours just for little treats during the week. The characters seem a little half baked, not fully developed but for having bought it for $2 I really don't mind that much. So if you just want a little quick romcom-like fix, I'll upvote for that.
