--OFFICIAL CAT QUEST II FAQ AND ROADMAP THREAD--

[The Gentlebros]

Cat Quest II will launch in just a few days! So we've decided to get ahead of that and start an FAQ thread for in case anything happens on launch!

BUG #1: The game cannot save, or save files not appearing.

If you're trying to save and the game gives you an error messages saying "The game cannot save. Please check your computer."
This most likely means you have some sort of anti-virus preventing the game from saving to the My Documents folder.
Please disable all anti-virus for Cat Quest II, or give it permission to access your My Documents folder.

What's next for Cat Quest II?

We plan to support Cat Quest II for the next three years! So don't worry, we're in this for the long haul even if the game does not succeed!

In order of date the updates will be released:
1. New Game Plus - Play the game again with your levels and gear, with increased difficulty.
2. Infinity Tower - A tower of infinite levels and loot! Also continues the story.
3. Mew Game - Play the game again with special meowdifiers.

Question: Is the co-op online or local?

The co-op is local only!
Although we have heard you can use Parsec to play it online. We have not tried Parsec, and are not endorsing it! Use it at your own risk!

Question: Is there any co-op specific content?

Nope! The entire game can be played in solo mode. There is no additional content you will miss!

--------------------------
We will continue to update this FAQ as we go! Thank you for going on this catventure with us! :3

If there was ever to be the possibility of online co-op, I'd fall in love with you lol.

We don't want to promise anything yet!

But in the meantime, we've heard from some players that using Parsec works! :)

I just completed 100% last night after about 12 hours. Loved it and I'm sure my son will too once he gets the chance to play it. Any rough time frame on updates for NG+ or possible challenge modes like in the first? (I still need to go back and finish up the challenges in the first one...but I turned it over to my kid to have a file so with the limited save ability it'll have to wait)
My only gripe about it in the whole experience was that it seemed far too easy to get well ahead of the challenge level. The beginning had really good pacing as far as gaining experience and gold proportionate to managing your upgrades, but once I got to the second tomb I found myself at least twenty levels ahead of everything. At end game I was at 104 and I think I may have gained two more level before I got the final (fashionista) achievement (how I missed a chest in the middle of the sodding map is beyond me...)

Thanks for the feedback! Glad you enjoyed it!

The issue with open world games is that because of the vast amount of side content you can do, its very easy to have players with large difference in power level. During our testing, we found that most people ended up at just the right level, or below, so I think maybe you might just be a good player! XD
(Did you do alot of sidequests?)

2 questions about :

RECOMMENDED:
OS: Windows 10
Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-7500U CPU @



1. no dedicated GPU needed ? is the cpu running the entire game? and will the onboard "gpu" do?

2. no i7 9700K with win7 i assume that's because win7 doesnt have support for the new Intel generation?

1. It will still run, but you might need to lower the resolution. To be honest, we have not tested on integrated GPUs.

2. The game supports win7. Your CPU should be fine.

in reply to 2. "2. The game supports win7. Your CPU should be fine"

I assume you arent refering to the fact that win7 will run it on a i9700K ? cause from what i read, win 7 doesn't have official support from Microsoft for the new hardware, i know some users managed to do it but it is not official patch, Win 7 can't use new hardware , because of lack of drivers/updates Microsoft will not offer ( talking about the normal license and not the companies , maybe they can somehow get new hardware to run officially by paying lots of extra $)

If you're taking suggestions, might I humbly suggest:

1. A UI option to auto-sort gear by level and/or effectiveness.
2. Maybe some kind of infinite, randomly generated dungeon to make it easier to grab chests w/out going through NG+.

I just started playing so apologies if either is in the game, current,y. If so, I haven't noticed.

1. Noted. :)
2. Yep, this will be the Infinity Dungeon DLC!

[MiningRush]

i have an idea.
you can make 1 big continent in 3 parts of the game and choose 2 characters between many. maybe add people.

[MiningRush]

the game itself was very lovely, with lots of link to 1 part of this game (picture at the end cute :3, I was touched)

No linux version unfortunately...

That's very unfortunate; another lost customer.

Hi. I discovered Cat Quest (I) recently in Humble RPG Bundle. I enjoyed that first game and I realized later a sequel was launched, so I had to buy it! I did it and I loved Cat Quest II too. Now that I completed the second game (all achievements unlocked fine BTW) I’d like to give you some feedback.

Firstly, congrats to Gentlebros team. It’s nice to see games like these: I loved the touch from the past, the amazing art (great music and cute graphic style), the particular humor, and the focus on funny and children-friendly content. Also, thanks for the localization to other languages (something a lot of indie developers don’t consider). I’m very happy with Cat Quest II in particular because it’s the kind of game I can play together with my godson; he’s starting to play games with me in coop like Wii’s Kirby games and he loves it. A game like Cat Quest II is just what I was looking for. You can count with my purchase of Cat Quest III.

Bugs: I didn’t notice any major bugs or crashes. Only an annoying issue happened to me twice or thrice in my first run: suddenly a depleted enemy’s health-bar was set above my character’s head for no reason; going back to main menu and reloading was enough to make that bar disappear.

If you accept suggestions/comments about the game, I have some:

1. Charged A (attack) button. I know you want to keep a simple control, but the charge of attack button is an old and intuitive mechanic seen in most Zelda2D-like games for more than 30 years. I think it could be interesting in this game to add a bit of depth in fights. And if you want to avoid an abuse of this mechanic, make it mana-dependent (consuming mana or making it only available with full bar of mana). Imagine a charged attack that would let you make a powerful attack, or a ranged attack (for example launching a ranged kunai if you carry a ninja weapon), or a dash attack, depending on the weapon…
   
2. Passive perks. I liked it but sometimes I didn’t know exactly what passive perks I had. And some of them were unclear too. I assume that same perk stacks its percentage (like wearing several items increasing healing %), but what about the ranger perks? They stack or not? I think it would be great if the game shows a summary of the passive perks obtained with your current outfit and weapon (I mean in your equipment tag screen without checking one by one the 3 items you’re currently wearing). Also, if you’re wearing a “matching equipment” (same class hat + clothes + weapon), like crimson or bard, I think it would be great that you can get an additional passive perk. For example, if you wear an all-ninja equipment, an additional perk could be an increased movement speed and teleporting instead of rolling (to the same point you would reach when you roll). Or an all-bard equipment: add a passive perk to your pal that increases his recovering of mana. Or an all-whitemage equipment: add a passive perk to your pal healing him 1hp per every hit he deals to enemies.
   
3. Ranged weapons (no magic staffs). Magic staffs are great but I think ranged weapons dealing physical damage like bows would be a nice addition too.
   
4. Second royal power. Out of 3 royal powers, I didn’t understand what was that second royal power. I didn’t notice anything. I think it should be something more noticeable.
   
5. More equipment. First Cat Quest had 1 playable character; Cat Quest II have 2, so it felt like you hadn’t that many choices especially in early game. BTW, I miss some outfits from the first game, like samurai, that was focused in physical damage…You had Bullseye character wearing like a samurai in this game and my kings couldn’t wear like a samurai :(
   
6. Scorched forest. Felingard didn’t have a forest like that in the first game. There’s no background of what happened there (the origin of the curse). Also, I expected some quests about finding a way to remove the curse and restoring the forest. It was a bit disappointing when I finished all the quests and I realized none of them were related to the forest :_(
   
7. Timeline inconsistencies.If the first governor was that old and long time dead, WTF are Kit Cat and Hotto Doggo? If they aren’t time travelers between timelines, it has no sense they’re alive in Cat Quest II.
   
8. Lifeless sea. Apart from the Cathulhu, no sea monsters in Cat Quest II. Why? First Cat Quest had monsters in the sea. In Cat Quest II the sea felt too empty and roaming by the sea was boring and unchallenging.
   
9. Linux port. I understand that it isn’t very profitable for you and consoles and mobiles are your priority, but I wish you could release a native port for Linux before you’re done with this game.

Thanks for all the feedback Garunesu! And thank you for playing our game! :)

These are all great criticisms, and we agree with most of them. Sometimes in game development, we run out of time, or some ideas don't come to fruition fully.
For example, we had intended something else for water walking initially, but when it came to actually making it, we ran into technical issues and had to cut the idea. This is why there are no enemies on the water. Instead, we tried to add collectibles and treasure chests in the water for people to explore and find. Not the best alternative, but it was all we could do in the time we had.

Also to your question regarding the timeline. It's explained early in the game that Kit Cat and Hotto Doggo were already there during the era of the First Kings. They forged the Kingsblade. This hints to the fact they are very, very, very old. Maybe even immortal(Kit even makes a comment about how Kirry should stop talking if not people would know how old she really is). This is why they are able to outlive the Governor and still look more or less the same after so long. As to why they are this way, we plan to explore this in DLC or future games. :)

Uhhh... Hi?
I wanted to know if there was any way to change the save file location. Is it possible to put it in the folder with the Cat quest 2 game files or put it somewhere else?

There is currently no way to change the save file location. Is there a reason you might want to do this? :)
