Hi everyone! 🌟

This is Ann, one of the programmers on the Hot Dawgs Studio team.

We just wanted to say a huge thank you to everyone who has wishlisted, played, and left a review on the game so far! We could have never imagined getting over 800 wishlists for our summer studies project! 🎉

As a sign of gratitude, we’re releasing a new patch for Scaredy Cat! We’ve listened to all of the feedback you’ve given us and tried to fix everything that bothered you.
