I don't see people talk about the Katamari Damacy games very much which is a shame because I think they're delightful! I also wish more people talked about Cattails (especially the sequel, Cattails: Wildwood Story), these games deserve more love imo haha

This is what me and my partner say to each other when we drink good coffee.

Katamari Damacy

These are apparently the remasters of the first two games for PC:

From looking at Wikipedia and Steam, I don't think that there's a PC version of Me & My Katamari.

Cattails (especially the sequel, Cattails: Wildwood Story)

The Katamari remasters are very well done as these things go. Just the right amount of graphical and compatibility boosting while not screwing with the gameplay, audiovisuals, or quirky vibes which made the originals so great.

All four games are also on Switch!! That's where I played them!

I'm currently playing to a T, by the Katamari creator.

Not remotely similar, and hard to recommend to most people tbh... but it has the same joyful silliness that just makes me smile, somehow.

[–] Lycaon@lemm.ee 5 points 2 days ago

I saw an article about it!! I really want to play it but alas don't have anything that can run it, but once I can get a PS5 it's totally going on my shopping list!

One of the greatest games of all time from a design and gameplay perspective. There's a reason it's in the MoMA. The soundtrack is an all-timer as well.

[–] Broadfern@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Cattails series mentioned! I’ve replayed those two multiple times they’re so cute and the gameplay loop is so soothing and fun.

Cat Quest series (which is more dungeon-crawler, not cat sim) is also adorable and accessible but doesn’t seem to be mentioned too often.

Man I keep meaning to replay Wildwood Story but I know once I start again that's all I'm doing for the next few day lol... I love the colony layout editor so much, spent so many hours fine-tuning my colony to make it exactly the way I wanted it
