Note: For the best experience, download the game on Windows or macOS (Oops seems macOS version is also broken). The browser version has limited audio support due to compatibility issues with Wwise on WebGL.

Editor Note: This is a concept game created for TapTap jam 2024. I'm not personally in favor of this one because of it's genre, gameplay, story, and the only thing I like is the art style. This is to say I will NOT continue to contribute to this project. But if you have any thoughts or better ideas on this, my gate is always open.

Hikari: A Cat's Journey

“In the darkest of moments, even a small light can lead the way home.”

About the Game: In Hikari, you control a tiny beam of light to guide a determined cat on a heartwarming adventure to find its beloved owner, Hikari. Each level presents new challenges, from navigating busy coffee shops to playful obstacle courses and curious environments. The cat, entranced by the light, follows as you reveal clues and memories left behind by Hikari. Every interaction and puzzle piece brings the cat closer to reuniting with Hikari, unveiling a touching story of loyalty and love. Immerse yourself in this endearing journey as you help the cat trace Hikari’s steps, one playful laser dot at a time.

Gameplay: Hikari combines puzzle-solving with exploration in a unique way. Each level presents whimsical challenges and interactive objects—slides, moving cables, and other playful obstacles—that you must navigate to keep the cat on track. The laser pointer isn’t just a tool; it’s a guiding light that interacts with the environment, helping the cat overcome obstacles, reveal secrets, and explore each carefully crafted scene.

Key Features:

  • Charming Storytelling: Uncover the heartfelt story of Hikari through the cat’s perspective, with every scene revealing more about their bond.
  • Engaging Puzzles: Use the laser to guide the cat through various levels, interacting with objects in ways that feel intuitive and rewarding.
  • Immersive Environments: From cozy coffee shops to the bank office, each scene is filled with details that add depth to the journey.
  • Emotional Journey: Discover memories and hints that paint a picture of Hikari’s life, all from the loyal cat’s point of view.

Will you help this brave cat find its way back to Hikari?

It was a very nice concept and I really enjoyed playing it. 
Especially after getting out of town, the obstacles and backgrounds of the stages were very easy to understand as a story!
Hikaru with his round eyes is very cute!
The last bank stage was difficult, but I felt a sense of accomplishment!
I thought this work was a good representation of the world as seen by a kitten, meow~!
