About This Game

She came to you at six years old, with an orange tail and eyes that didn't trust you yet.

NEKO MAKER is a raising simulation game. You play as a guardian raising a cat girl through twelve complete years of growth — from a bewildered six-year-old child to an eighteen-year-old young woman finding her own path.

She will push back, tell small lies, and knock on your door late at night to say she had a nightmare. She will remember the birthday you forgot, and every word you ever said. Twelve years from now, who will she be? Only you know the answer.

【How to Play】

Each month, you schedule four weeks of activities for her. You can send her to classes to improve her stats, send her to work to earn income, let her explore the city to develop her instincts, or arrange rest to restore her physical and mental condition. Every choice affects her five ability stats (Strength, Intelligence, Charm, Elegance, Instinct) and her hidden personality axes (Attachment, Wildness, Rebellion, Self-Esteem).

You also manage the household finances — paying monthly food costs, tuition fees, and activity expenses, while balancing her work income and your own monthly salary. When money is tight, you must make difficult choices.

At the end of each month, she will say something and wait for your response. How you respond quietly shapes who she becomes.

【Story Events】

The game features over 90 story events covering daily life, growth milestones, NPC relationships, and crisis moments. Events trigger automatically based on her current condition, your relationship, and the passage of time. Some events have chain effects — a choice you make today may affect her in unexpected ways three years later.

【Loss of Control (LoC) System】

When her stress, rebellion, or instinct exceeds a threshold, she begins to act autonomously — ignoring your schedule and following her own will. You must respond to these situations, or things may spiral out of control, triggering emergency dialogue or affecting the final ending.

【Ability Development】

・Five ability stats each capped at 999, continuously improvable through classes and competitions

・Courses come in Basic, Intermediate, and Advanced levels — higher difficulty means stronger results

・Jobs can be promoted over time: Newcomer → Experienced → Senior, with increasing income

・Four condition stats (Mood, Stress, Hunger, Health) interact with each other and require active management

【Competition System】

Five competitions appear throughout the game, each with a recurring rival opponent. Results are determined by her ability stats, and rival difficulty increases with each passing year. After wins or losses you must respond to her emotions, and after enough encounters, rivals may even become her friends, providing additional growth bonuses.

【Endings and Replayability】

・18 different endings, determined by her stats, hidden axes, your relationship, and key decisions

・After each ending, she writes you a letter describing her life afterward

・An ending gallery tracks all unlocked endings and encourages multiple playthroughs

・New Game+ lets you carry over some stats, money, or relationships into a new run to explore different paths

・Each playthrough takes approximately 3-5 hours

【Additional Features】

・Career selection affects starting funds and monthly salary: Office Worker, Freelancer, Civil Servant, Shop Owner
