Coming Soon To Early Access

The developers of this game intend to release as a work in progress, developing with the feedback of players.

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“This is a free-form conversation simulation game that does not use AI to generate replies. All dialogue is written by hand, so we would like to gather conversation data from as many players as possible. ”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Approximately two months. ”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“For the full version, we plan to let players play with the nekomata, share meals, and sleep together after conversations. We also plan to include opportunities to listen to the nekomata's stories, explore how this life together began, and observe gradual changes in the nekomata's behavior in response to the player's words. ”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Only the conversation system is complete at this stage. ”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“The demo will be free, and the full game will be paid. ”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“The game includes a feature for submitting anonymous logs, as well as access to an external survey. ”

About This Game

“It’s okay. Nothing scary or painful is ever going to happen to you again. From now on, I’ll protect you.”

About This Game

One day, your beloved cat mysteriously transforms into a supernatural cat yokai known as a nekomata.

And you find yourself shrunk down to a size even smaller than a mouse.

With no family or friends you can rely on, there is only one person left to turn to: Neruko, the nekomata who loves you more than anything.

Neruko will do her very best to take care of you and make sure you never have to struggle on your own.

You can let her spoil you.
You can play together just like you always have.
Or you can tease her a little, just to see how she reacts.

A former owner and their former pet.
With their roles completely reversed, an unusual new life together begins.

“What should we do today?”

After becoming a nekomata, Neruko gains the ability to speak human language.

In Nekolpos, you are not limited to choosing from a list of dialogue options.
You can type whatever you want and talk to Neruko in your own words.

Neruko is still learning human language, so she will not understand everything you say.

But she will always do her best to understand you.

And if you use a word she does not know yet... perhaps you can teach her something new.

“You want to touch me? Sure! Just be gentle with my belly!”

Neruko loves spending time with you.

If you ask, she may let you interact with her enormous body.

Pet her, bury yourself in her fur, climb onto her back, and experience an ordinary house cat from the perspective of someone only a few centimeters tall.

Now that Neruko has become your guardian, she will probably indulge plenty of requests from the person who once took care of her.

“A lot happened today, huh? Are you going to write it down again?”

At the end of each day, you can use your tablet to write in your diary.

Record the things that happened while spending time with Neruko, then look back on those memories whenever you like.

As your relationship deepens, you may even unlock special diary entries.

No Game Overs. No Replays Required.

There is no “correct” way to talk to Neruko.

Even if you feel like you said the wrong thing, you never need to restart the game.

If your relationship changes, that does not mean you have entered a failed route.
It simply reflects the relationship you and Neruko have right now.

If you do not like where things are going, try talking about something else.

Your relationship can gradually change again through future conversations.

There is also no need to replay the game just to collect different endings.

There is only one ending.
And even after reaching it, you can continue living your everyday life with Neruko.

So do not worry about攻略 routes or optimal choices.
Just talk about whatever you genuinely want to talk about.

...But Neruko is not a chatbot AI, so she may not always respond exactly the way you want her to.

Open Beta Test Now in Progress

Nekolpos is currently in development.

The free-form conversation system does not use generative AI for dialogue.
Neruko's conversations and responses are built by hand.

During the open beta test, we will continue expanding the words, phrases, and conversations Neruko can understand based on how players interact with her.

Please talk to Neruko as much as you like, and help us improve her conversations by submitting your conversation logs.
