Tiny Paws × $0.15 Donation is coming Q4 2025

Wishlist Tiny Paws today to get a heads-up when your new desktop companion arrives in Q4 2025. Here’s our promise: for every Steam sale of Tiny Paws, $0.15 goes to animals in need. We’ll keep everything transparent. Play a cozy game, make a real-world difference. By adopting a digital pet, you’re helping real ones get the care they need.

About This Demo

This demo is a limited preview of Tiny Paws, focused entirely on caring for cats.

Allergic to animals? We’ve got you—this cozy cat care is 100% sneeze-free.

Focus, care, collect.

  • Use Pomodoro to manage your time, nurture your pet between sprints, and win items through a bite-size card mini-game. Every image is hand-drawn pixel art. Come say hi and help shape the game , bring your coffee and hang out with us.

In the full version, mini-games loop into progression. Plus, $0.15 per sale goes to feeding stray animals.

A Heart-Warming Companion at the Bottom of Your Desktop

  • No timer, lighter UI—just the core cat-care loop. Some systems are pared back in the demo to keep it simple and approachable.

In the full version, upgraded UI + integrated growth: clearer layouts, richer tooltips, quick actions, smarter panels and pet systems that turn daily care into long-term progression (new behaviors, bonuses, customization, unlockable automation).

Cat-Only Preview: A Focused Slice of Gameplay

  • Choose one of five cat types: Brown Tabby, Vampire Cat (a playful fantasy variant), White Shorthair, Black Shorthair, or Russian Blue. After selecting your companion, you’ll give them a name and choose a gender, then jump straight into the cozy routine of caring for your cat. Limited to a single pet so you can form a clear bond and get a feel for the core experience without distractions.

In the full version, 10+ species + multi-pet management: adopt multiple animals with unique traits and resource-digging behaviors, then manage their needs and relationships for deeper, more strategic progression (richer synergies, smarter planning).

Core Care: Feed, Clean, Heal, Show Affection

  • Single-cat, cozy care loop: feed with four food types (bought using items your cat digs), clean instantly via the old broom (or pick up one by one), quench Thirst with unlimited water, and meet Love by clicking your cat. Healing prompts appear when needed for quick recovery. Your pet’s health depends on managing all four.

In the full version, expanded care + automation: auto-feed/clean systems, pet bathing, and environmental tools (call rain/snow to reduce germs), plus more methods that deepen routine care without extra busywork.

Customization System: Limited customization panel.

  • Light customization panel: pick 5 wallpapers, 5 floors, and 5 cat accessories (collars, bows, hats) to style the room and give your cat personality. Just enough to bond without overwhelm.

In the full version, expanded customization + evolving spaces: advanced decoration styles, more furniture and color variants, themed event packs, and new environments/biomes with additional art styles—so your space (and look) grows with your play.

Cat-Only Shop: Items for Your Cat’s Environment

  • Clear, helpful shop: every item has descriptions/tooltips, so you know what it does. Browse vitamins, foods, decorations, toys and decorations aren’t just cosmetic: they contribute to upgrades (felt in the demo) and tie into automation in the full game.

  • You buy with what you or your cat dig up; since this demo is cat-only, your cat’s finds are all you need to keep shopping and progressing.

In the full version, species-specific shops and automated resource collection, unique items per animal, steady economy as you play.

Work–Break Rhythm & Minimal Pomodoro

  • In this demo, you get a simple, no-nonsense Pomodoro: clean timer, quick start/stop, gentle nudges—plus a small selection of lo-fi tracks to help you settle into focus.

In the full version, everything levels up. Pomodoro becomes powerful and personal with custom presets, session stats, smart breaks, and bottom-bar quick actions. The soundtrack grows into a curated lo-fi library with an enhanced audio panel for effortless track swapping, playlists, and finer controls—so staying in flow feels natural, not forced.

Mini Games: Short & Smart

  • Mini card games blend bite-size strategy with fast rounds. Simple rules, a clean interface, and focused goals keep play snappy. Win to earn rewards, materials, and small power-ups that feed back into your core progression.

In the full version: multiple modes (score chase, daily challenges, time trials), more card variety and modifiers (risk/reward twists), daily/weekly challenges with leaderboards, and persistent rewards that tie directly into long-term progression.

9 achievements crafted around the core cat-care loop

  • Feed, clean, heal, bond & more. Browse the in-game list, try the challenges, and earn them all for a purr-fect demo run!

A Personal Mission, A Cozy Companion

I’ve always connected well with animals, and after graduating I wanted to combine my technical skills with that personal side. As a solo developer, I’m building Tiny Paws step by step under UPI Games. I’d love to have you with us on this journey—add it to your Wishlist to be the first to know when your new desktop companion arrives.
