Latest Steam announcements

  • Patch notes 1.0.4 - 3 September 2026

    Added the translation into Traditional Chinese We've made another attempt to fix the bug that some players were experiencing where their achievements weren't unlocking. We believe this shouldn't happen anymore, but we'll keep an eye out for any new reports. A small balance change to prevent players from getting stuck in the mid-game for too long. There are now a couple of guaranteed plasma blocks (the red ones) between layers 24–27, since we’ve noticed that this is where people get stuck the most.

  • We Need Your Help - 26 June 2026

    Hello, everyone.Unfortunately, we don't have any video game news for you today; instead, we're here to ask for your help. We and our family are safe, but tens of thousands of people need urgent help.

  • Patch notes 1.0.3 - 20 June 2026

    We've added improved support for controller gameplay. Please keep in mind that this game was developed with the intention of being played with a mouse, so we believe that remains the optimal way to play it. We welcome any comments or suggestions, as there may be a better way to implement controller controls that we haven't thought of yet. We’ve tweaked the balance a bit more, especially around levels 20–30, as that seemed to be a common sticking point for many players. We’ve fixed a minor visual bug in one of the cat’s animations. We’ve added a couple of extra safeguards, which should definitively resolve any issues with earning the game’s achievements.

  • Patch notes 1.0.2 - 30 April 2026

    Hi everyone! We've been paying close attention to your feedback and suggestions over the last few days. Here are the patch notes for version 1.0.2 with the latest tweaks and fixes: The main menu now checks if you meet the requirements for any missing achievements and unlocks them automatically, which should fix the issues some of you were experiencing. Added the option to replay the final cutscene. After finishing the game, clicking "Continue" on the main menu will now let you choose whether to keep playing or rewatch the ending. Made a minor balance adjustment. There is now a very low chance for red blocks to appear between layers 20 and 25 to prevent you from getting stuck in that area for too long. Updated some of the cat's sprites to make the passage of time visually clearer. Fixed a few errors in the cat's animations. Fixed other minor visual bugs. Wilmar & Wilderman Apamate Studio

  • Patch notes 1.0.1 - 24 April 2026

    Hi everyone! Thank you so much for the amazing reception The Last Cat in the Universe has had in these first few hours. We've been closely watching your feedback and we already have our first small patch ready to fix a few minor issues. Patch 1.0.1 Notes: Fixed a bug that unintentionally made some upgrades free. Fixed an issue that caused the final cutscene to play more than once. Fixed the cat's purring sound triggering at the wrong time. Added a couple of extra dialogue lines. Fixed translation errors in the Russian, German, French, Portuguese, and Italian versions. What are we working on next? We are still reading everything you post and are already preparing future updates. We specifically want to mention that we are paying close attention to the game's overall balance, evaluating ways to improve it, especially in the late-game sections. We are also keeping a very close eye on local…

  • Welcome to The Last Cat: Who We Are and Why We Are Making This Game - 18 January 2026

    Hi everyone.If you are reading this, thank you for your interest in The Last Cat in the Universe. We want to take this first post to briefly introduce ourselves and explain the origin of this project.We are Apamate Studio, a team made up of two brothers from Venezuela.Until recently, we were dedicated to developing a much larger and more complex project. However, seeing our resources running low, we made a difficult decision: to pause that main development to create something smaller, more manageable, and that we could finish in a few months.That is how this game was born. We didn't want to make a "filler" project, but rather take the opportunity to explore a different narrative in a genre we like.What is the game about?We set ourselves a challenge: to tell an emotional story using the simple mechanics of an incremental (idle) game.In The Last Cat in the Universe, you assume the role of…

Short description

Gather the remains of a dying space station to build a cozy home for the last cat in the universe. A short, narrative-driven incremental game about finding peace in the face of darkness

About this game

You are an AI on a decaying space station. Humanity is gone. All that remains is dust, silence, and one small, frightened creature . Your only prompt: Take care of her. The Last Cat in the Universe is a short, narrative-driven incremental game. Your directive is clear: salvage what's left of a dying ship to build a warm home for the final survivor. Key Features Find Your Flow: Experience a mining mechanic designed for relaxation. Hover your mouse over debris fields in a satisfying, rhythmic flow. No frantic clicking required. Meaningful Progression: Every upgrade matters. Unlock tangible leaps in power that let you tear through deeper layers of the ship instantly. As the station decays, you must constantly balance your desire for stronger tools against the rising cost of keeping the air breathable and the nest warm. Recover the Lost Lullaby: Discover the story of the station and its crew as you collect the fragments of a very important song. A Soulful Soundtrack: Music is the emotional core of this experience. The original score, composed in collaboration with Venezuelan singer-songwriter Diora Salazar , evolves from meditative rhythms to deep emotion, intimately tied to the narrative's climax. A Focused Experience This game is designed to be played in one or two sittings (approx. 2-3 hours) . It does not feature infinite prestige loops or idle grinding. It is a complete story about the quiet joy of fostering a life in dire circumstances.

Price History Overview

USD uses SteamPulse's own locally recorded daily store snapshots, so this overview reflects the exact regional price history that SteamPulse has captured for this currency.

Coverage And Tracking Window

  • Snapshots: 1
  • Coverage: Oct 9, 2026 to Oct 9, 2026
  • Lowest observed: $6.99
  • Highest observed: $6.99

The Last Cat in the Universe's USD price history spans from Oct 9, 2026 to Oct 9, 2026, with 1 recorded snapshot across 1 calendar day. Each row records the available final price, listed base price, and discount metadata for that observation. Within this coverage the lowest recorded price is $6.99, the highest is $6.99, and the first visible tracked price is $6.99. These comparisons apply only to the snapshots SteamPulse holds; missing observations can contain changes that are not represented here.

For USD, SteamPulse uses locally captured regional storefront snapshots and does not reconstruct older prices with exchange-rate conversion. The chart and table show the values recorded for this exact currency from the stated coverage start. Additional snapshots extend that record, but they do not fill unobserved days or prove what the storefront displayed between observations.

Discount Windows And Sale Timing

  • Discount windows: 0
  • Discounted days: 0 days
  • Deepest markdown: No discount tracked
  • Latest sale window: No sale window tracked

The Last Cat in the Universe's tracked USD rows do not contain a discount window. This means no available snapshot in the stated coverage has usable discount metadata; it does not prove that the game was never discounted. Missing snapshots or archived rows without complete metadata can hide a sale, so SteamPulse does not infer pricing strategy from this absence.

If a later snapshot includes discount metadata, it will appear here with its recorded depth, price, date, and sale name when available. Until then, this section should be read only as a description of the available rows, not as evidence about the publisher's promotion policy.

Observed Price Changes And Stable Runs

  • Observed price drops: 0
  • Observed price rises: 0
  • Longest stable run: 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking
  • Current run: 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking

Outside rows carrying discount metadata, the tracked price has not recorded a separate price rise or drop yet. That means the observed undiscounted level has stayed stable across the snapshots SteamPulse currently holds. This is a statement about the recorded coverage only; it does not prove that an older or missing price change never happened.

The longest unchanged price stretch in the current record lasts 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking at $6.99, from Oct 9, 2026 through Oct 9, 2026. Among rows without discount metadata, the longest unchanged run lasts 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking at $6.99. The latest run records $6.99 for 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking as the same recorded undiscounted price. Run lengths describe consecutive stored observations only and do not establish that a price is permanent.

Latest Snapshot And Sales Context

  • Current price: $6.99
  • Current list price: $6.99
  • Distinct observed prices: 1
  • Source mode: SteamPulse local tracking

The latest tracked snapshot records The Last Cat in the Universe at $6.99 in USD, with no active discount metadata. Across the available history SteamPulse has recorded 1 distinct final price in this currency. This supports comparisons with the lowest, highest, and most common values present in the retained record, subject to the stated coverage limits.

The live sales view and Steam sales record provide calendar context for these dates. A date overlap can be compared with a named Steam event, but it does not prove why a publisher changed a price. As new daily rows arrive, this overview recalculates its observed prices, discount windows, and run lengths automatically.
