Hunt for rare Kotámon cards while working as a garbage collector, rummaging through trash to complete orders and uncover hidden treasures. The game blends idle progression with collection mechanics, rewarding you for both systematic trash-clearing tasks and random card discoveries that spike in value. It's designed for players who enjoy the satisfying loop of hoarding and cataloging while watching their earnings climb toward that million-dollar goal.

Enjoyable game, but the UI overlaps so I could not save my game, or when I go into the main menu to load my autosave, it does not allow me to load any of the saves (for some reason the slots were full of Russian save files that don't work either?)

Will turn positive when these bugs are fixed, but right now the UI bugs are a bit off putting.

Oddly super satisfying cleaning and collecting rare cards, along with some very cute art works on the card AND trashs lol. only downside is the weird ultrawide resolution kinda stretches out the UI in the main menu setting and the upgrade page. otherwise game is really fun.

CRASH AND INFINITE LOADING FIX

23 days ago
Great news, kittens! We've finally figured out why many players weren't able to launch the game, and we've also found the reason why other players were having broken saves and the game going into an endless loading loop. Our beta testing showed that the update worked for most people and didn't introduce any new issues, so we're releasing it to the public.An important clarification: this doesn't solve the issue of conflicts between the game and third-party apps like RivaTuner. In this case, the easiest way is still to disable them.PS: Regarding auto-gluing cards, cleaning upgrades, and other things, we're reading all the comments, reviews, and feedback, and plan to add them in the upcoming major content update, along with new cards (including fan-made ones!) and a ton of new stuff! The update will be completely free, but it's a really cool one. And if Steam-chan allows it, we'll even try to give you a discount!Thank you all for playing, patiently waiting for updates, and providing positive feedback :) We're working hard to make the game better as best as we can!

We fixed infinite loading, crashes and broken saves... PROBABLY

24 days ago
Some players have reported that the game won't launch.For others, the game worked, but then crashed or entering an endless loading screen.The good news is that we've found the cause and seem to have fixed everything. But that's not certain!To test this, we need volunteers from those currently experiencing this issue. We've created a separate testing branch where we've uploaded a build with the fixes.We kindly ask that if you encounter the issues described above, follow the instructions below, run the new build, and let us know in the comments or on Discord whether this resolved the issue or whether it created any new ones.To join the Open Beta testing branch:Right-click the game's name in your Steam Library. In the list that appears, select "Properties" at the bottom.In the window that opens, select Game Versions and BetasIn the Hidden Versions field, enter the super-secret code KotaMotaBetaTest and click the "Check Code" button.A new betatest branch will appear - just click its checkbox, and Steam will automatically switch to it and start downloading the update.If you haven't been able to launch the game since release, just try it and report back in the comments below this post or on Discord.If you had saves and don't want to risk them, save a copy of them somewhere before launching. In theory, this build should fix broken saves and the game will start loading, but in practice, it's better to be on the safe side. Saves are located in the following path:C:\\Users\\username\\AppData\\LocalLow\\KotaMota Games\\Kotamon

Steam cards!

28 days ago
Great news, kittens! Steam-chan, having pretty much frayed our nerves with her edits, still approved the collectibles - cards and badges! This means that the longer you dig through the trash, the more Steam cards you will find! MORE CARDS YEAH!! In addition, we continue to try to combat the bug due to which the game does not start for some players. So far, unfortunately, it has not been possible to definitely find and eliminate the cause, but enterprising players (for which GREAT thanks them) have created a page on the wiki, where they analyze various cases and give advice:https://kotamongame.wiki/fixes/not-launching/ In addition, we are preparing to make a big free update with all sorts of life improvements for players, new cards and cosplays! It’s difficult to name the exact release date yet (we still have XenoFeels to do!), but we’re trying to get everything done in time. Kota and I are incredibly grateful to everyone who plays Kotamon, writes reviews, feedback, draws fan cards, waits for patches and new things!
