First Little Kitty, Big City Patch Fixes Clipping and Collision Bugs

Double Dagger Studio announced that people should stop seeing Little Kitty, Big City clipping and collision bugs in its first patch. It is on the PC via Steam now and will head to the Nintendo Switch and Xbox Series X in the near future. 

There is no new content in this first Little Kitty, Big City patch. Rather, 36 bugs and other problems are fixed in the update. Seven instances where there were collision issues are now repaired. The major clipping problem applies to the Kyoto home.

Some of the other changes are quality of life ones. For example, the Little Kitty, Big City quest involving the tennis balls belonging to Potato the Shiba Inu will make gathering them easier. It also won’t be possible to skip the first meeting with the crow and get locked out of progression.

Here are the full patch notes as shared on Steam:

• fixed being able to open the emote menu when pawing
• fixed being able to take a photo during the outro (and some other periods as well)
• made improvements to the doggo quest and pushing balls
