For those who've played the game, is it worth it? $30 for around 5 hours of play time seems a bit steep.

Little Kitty, Big City looks fun.

Took me cost me closer to 10, and you can wait for sales.

I thought it was just a "walk around" game. Boy was I wrong. Best game I've played in a long time, constantly engaged in the entire story. Yes it's worth it.

I'll add it to my watchlist for sales. Thank you!

On the one hand, Annapurna seems to know what they're doing - Nimona was fantastic. On the other hand, I think it's going to be hard to make this into a movie. I'm assuming they'll focus on the journey of the cat and the environment around it, but they'll have to fill all of the other space, hopefully with the robots and their personalities.

I hope the cat in the movie will look more natural than the one in the game.

In the game, the animation looks great. I'm sure they took a lot of effort with the motion capture.

But there is something weird about the cat's face. It just doesn't look like a cat, no realistically, not cartoonish either. Perhaps some adjustment in the facial modelling will help.

Yes, that's to be expected, a videogame has to compromise a lot on the assets they use. A movie should be able to get something more polished up

I didn't expect them to make a movie for this but it's a welcome surprise!

I know the perfect person to direct/animate the movie :
