Neko: Pixel Cat Pet & Widget

Neko is a tiny kawaii cat who really lives on your screen - poke her, pet her, tease her, and she reacts every single time. She's drawn entirely in hand-designed retro pixel art: crisp, colorful pixels, built pixel by pixel, frame by frame.

SHE LIVES ON YOUR HOME SCREEN Put Neko in a Home Screen widget and she's there every time you unlock your phone - no box around her, just the kitten sitting on your wallpaper among your apps. Pick which kitten appears, tap her to jump into the app - or boop her right there on the Home Screen and watch her light up without opening anything at all.

MEET THE KITTENS Neko comes in five hand-painted palettes, each with her own name: Momo (peach), Matcha (mint), Lulu (lavender), Latte (cream) and Kumo (sky). Mix in different ear and eye styles and no two Nekos look quite alike. Same reactive cat underneath, five completely different coats to fall for.

SHE REACTS TO EVERYTHING, EVERY TIME Tap her forehead, poke an eye, rub or hold her cheeks, tap or kiss her mouth, drag across her fur, shake your phone - every gesture gets its own reaction, drawn from 30+ hand-designed pixel expressions. Between reactions her ears twitch, her tail swishes and she breathes on her own - she's never quite frozen, even when you're not touching her.

SHE REMEMBERS HOW YOU TREAT HER A mood system tracks your whole relationship with her - be sweet and she stays happy; poke too hard, too often, and she'll let you know about it. She laughs, blinks, gets heart-eyes when she's delighted, and cries if her mouth gets tapped one too many times. Poke an eye fast enough, four times in a row, and see what happens.

HER MOOD CHANGES HOW SHE MOVES Mood doesn't just change her face - it changes how she sits and what she does with herself. A bright cat plays and stretches; a low one curls up small and quiet. Drop in late at night and you'll find her drowsy whatever kind of day she's had.

A JOURNAL OF EVERY HABIT YOU CATCH Every little habit and expression you catch her doing gets logged in her journal - 50+ to find, some common, some rare, some that only ever show up in a certain mood. The ones you haven't seen yet wait there as silhouettes. A collection you discover, not one you buy.

SHE SOUNDS LIKE HERSELF Sweet sung "mew" notes, a scatter of spoken voice lines, a real laugh, and a little chewing sound when you grab her cheeks.

COZY, NOT COMPLICATED A tamagotchi you can't fail. Slip her a treat whenever you feel like it - there's no hunger bar, nothing decays, and skipping a day costs you nothing at all. Come back tomorrow and she just keeps count, with a little free play time as a thank you. No grinding, no progression loop to keep up with.

Free to play. Adopt one of the kittens today - Neko is waiting.
