apparently the orc is connected to manny's dialogue, so i have compiled all the sus manny quotes, "never forget the legendary bug squasher dtk,dr", the text about the mysterious smile, peanuts are good, lemons are bad, when you close a door another opens, and finally, the binary text manny says translates to "not so well hidden orc",

I don't know how to "find the orc", I know it's got something to do with the binary text, and I tried entering various binary and text hidden/found/orc stuff in the code window in misc but got nothing :(

i am going NUTS trying to find the secrets, "curiosity killed the cat" "check the shop for certain upgrades" and finding the orc.
Hey there, the two Achievements "Teach, Pray, Love" and "Give us Strength", which both have "Check the Shop for certain Upgrades" as a hint will eventually be unlocked after devoting yourself to Cat God (4th Prestige layer: Devotion). About the other 2 secrets you mentioned: Orc -> listen to/read what Manny is saying. Once an Orc is mentioned, look for a way or a place how to use this information. Curiosity kills the Cat -> you need to explore every menu, every place imaginable. There will be something you need to click, but you won't see it, just trial and error is all you can do here :D
I hope this helps :)
Hey there, you can check your total amount of Homes built in the Stats Menu, but I'll make sure you can see the amount of Homes built easier later. If you're trying to get the "Blutprints" Upgrade, note that you're going to need 5x the cost of Homes so your pop cap doesn't decrease after buying it. I hope this helps :)

@TheRealPip it's like a minigame at the moment and is separated with the main game. It's still under construction, tho, so expect more update in the future. Devs once said that there'll also be a bonus or reward for playing Meowruto RPG soon. I guess it's similar to Adventure mode in NGU Idle.

Sorry... what is the point of the meowruto RPG? I guess that you can "increase level"... but can someone please articulate what this translates to in the game? Also, I assume it is not intended that every time I do that and then go back to the main game, all settings reset (the dialogs all reset and have to be read again... the sound and music come back on, etc). -Pip
Hey there, it's definitely not intended to reset all settings when coming back from Meowruto RPG, thanks for pointing this out! I've tried it myself and encountered other issues, but having dialogues and/or settings like music reset wasn't part of it it seems. I'll look into it!

Why do I need to pet in a different direction vs my previous pet? Why do two pets (back to back) made in the same direction count as a poke? -Pip

How does one unlock devotions? I've got blessing upgrades costing over 6.5k blessings but haven't had devotions unlock yet.

Could someone explain how the Blueprints work? Despite having 24 houses built and a population of 121/531 i cannot buy them.
Hey there, to prevent the player from reducing their current pop cap, Blueprints requires you to have 5 times the cost of Homes built to be bought. For example: with 24 Homes, your pop cap is 531. After getting the upgrade, you'd be left with 6 Homes, hence your pop cap is reduced to 234 (6 * 18 * 1.25 + 99). I hope this helps :)

How do you see Purrks? I promoted a disciple and have no idea how to check. Also I have 23 homes built, but can't purchase blueprints which says 18 homes built. Used to be 45 so I'm wondering if one number got changed and the other didn't. Thanks!
Hey there, the Purrks menu is kinda hidden to be honest, what you need to do is click the icon of the Assessment Center to open it. And about Blueprints: I've changed the condition of when it is possible to buy this upgrade. It costs less than before, which is true, but it can only be bought when the pop cap is not reduced after buying it, meaning you'll need more houses than the upgrade actually costs. I hope this helps :)
Hey there, once you've ascended at least three times and have a total of 27 Gifts, you can receive your first Blessing. Note that you can gain multiple Blessings, you just need to collect more Gifts (27 Gifts -> 1 Blessing)

"Total Homes Built: 0" in the "General Stats", even if the "Construction Company" worked and the "Population limit: 225". I guess I have (225 - 99)/9 = 14 homes built without the "Blueprints".

Hey! What are the advantages of the promoted disciples? For my part, it moves so slowly. I come to see every day, but will take me another 2-3 days to be able to devote my disciples again. 3h30 for a new house is so long. I have 416 population limit, but i have to devote 626 disciples. I dont wanna lose my buffed and promoted disciples :(
Hey there, I recommend you not to devote your Promoted Disciples before the next update is out (even if you weren't going to do this anyway :D ). I'll add more content revolving around Promoted Disciples soon, hopefully this weekend. As it stands, the next update will add a new feature called "Purrks", which are certain bonuses that can be unlocked by having Promoted Disciples. There will be two paths, one for Educated and one for Buffed Up Disciples. Each path has 3 Purrks at the moment, but I'll add more later. Further promotions will also be made possible with even more levels being unlocked in the future. I hope this helps :) About the construction of Homes: I'll think of a way to tweak this, either by increasing the amount of Disciples that can live in one or decrease the minimum time, although the first makes more sense imo.
What kind of scroll? I really have no idea what you are talking about. Feel free to message me privately so we can discuss this. And if you could provide screenshots as well, that would be great :D
Hey there, could you please elaborate some more? Is it a specific function that doesn't work properly? Or do you not receive the correct amount of something?

A few thing for the update: 1. You should round up/down the population to int at the end to avoid 0,5 cat. 2. You can take a look in Mewruto RPG, if you had beaten the boss, change stage, click on boss, go back, and you can fight the boss again while it's on cooldown. 3. I'm wondering about promotion, is 1% gacha-like (accumulating) or is it just flat 1% (probability). Thank you
Hey there, thanks for pointing all this out, I've added this to the list of things to do for the update :) About your 3rd question: it's 1% probability, it basically rolls a number between 1-100 and if it's 1 (+ value of specific Upgrades) you have successfully promoted a Disciple. The next update will also add more content revolving around Promoted Disciples. Until it's out, I advise you not to devote them but keep them instead to unlock certain bonuses.

When we are in devote stage, do we still care about favour, gift or blessing? I found myself stupid to gain big no. Of blessing as it does nth. And i spent the devoted disciples on gaining favour, gift, blessing seems not getting me any good things, none of this increase the speed for devoting. (Upgrades bought with ease)
Hey there, when you've bought all the Upgrades you can, there's no need to further farm for Favors, Gifts and/or Blessings. Note that the Devoted Shop also has some Upgrades that require Karma, Favors, Gifts or Blessings. I'll make sure to add a bonus to Blessings in the future. :)

I'm somewhat confused surrounding the Devoted, knowing where to assign them and so on. I have everything but the last building unlocked, but am not sure where to put my disciples, whether to devote the special ones, etc.
Also, once you've gotten all the upgrades, is there any point in getting more blessings? Gifts mean you can improve your buildings, but do more blessings do anything?
Hey there, I'll add some kind of bonus in the future, so Blessings aren't worthless after getting everything. Maybe I'll raise the level cap of some Upgrades, so you can still spend your Blessings. I'll see what I can do :)

anyone else figured out how to increase the rate of the "Training Center." I've got some guesses based on guess and check with karma/favor/gift/blessing levels, but still at a bit of a loss. help please!
Hey there, the speed of the Training Center is influenced by your current Karma per second. The algorithm goes as follows: BaseTime - ln(KPS) * 2, where BaseTime is 1200 seconds. There are also certain Upgrades and Achievements, which will increase the speed even further. I hope that helps :)

I've made export but it doesn't want to be imported now :( what can I do? actually I have 4 exported saves but they do not want to be imported

should the Blueprint upgrade be unlock after reaching certain amount of houses instead of paying houses for 25% more space, I find it not rewarding at all and even lead to the point I can't do anything except waiting for new houses to be built (training scale with karma but with limited pop it's useless)

I hv missed the god told me to get45 workers to build homes, i was thinking the double speed to train more disciples, didnt know there were population limit.... Even the god gave me a second chance after the first fail, i still put every devoted disciples into the normal ones......
Cat God believes in 2nd chances, but you should never fail them twice. If you want to keep playing, export your save file and send it to me via email or Discord, whatever you prefer :)

now that someone has mentioned it, I did find the big gap between 2 upgrade was too much and players were forced to leave the game open for around 1 hour. If you don't want to messing with the upgrades' price, I reccomend a buff that only belong to the 1st trial: each petting increase profit by, like, 0.01%, your choice. The snowball effect and accumulation will make it less boring and speed things up (1 hour for afk but 15 mins for active playing is a good amount, I think)
Hey there, thanks for the suggestion, I wasn't aware that the 1st Trial was that tedious. I'll think of a small bonus that promotes active play, maybe call it something like "Carpal Tunnel bonus" :)

Trial2: the cats are not reliable and have only 1%chance to function, i understand that, meaning if my meowruto hits 100 times, it will have 1 time that will give me income. But why are the 10 paws not functioning normally? I thought that is part of the"petting manny"

Dev, is my english that bad? Trial 1. I am saying that this was a good idle game until this trial, because there is a big gap between the 2upgrades i have nothing to do in between 1 hundred something mil karma upgrade and 764m karma upgrade . I have to left the game runs for more than an hour in order to get 1 b karma to gain the 1 flavour. Literally nothing i can do to speed up, i am not scratching the screen for that 5% faster progress
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
I bought all things with gifts and blessings, now i cant ascend to get more gifts to upgrade the buildings. Instead, i must do trials. Trial 1, just use manny to get 1b karma for 1 flavour (i have left the game runs for an hour not being able to do anything after maxing the upgrades i could afford) [warning: trial must be done with your presence, if you go offline it does nothing. extremely stupid. Trial 2, maybe it's a bug, the paws gives no income, only manual pet and other CATS give income.(i got all 9 paws with a few upgrades already)
Hey there, you can still prestige as before, just uncheck the box at the top left of the Prestige query box. Trials are required to be done online, because it wouldn't be as much of a challenge in my opinion. While doing Trial 2, you have a chance of 1% to actually gain Karma from your Cats. If you don't notice a difference between this Trial and usual gameplay, then this is certainly a bug (or you are extremely lucky) :D

Soo... I've just received my first gift and spent it on a staff instead of Meowruto's training hall. Now the shop is stuck with just buildings and gifts. Am I supposed to somehow switch it back to buy cats? Or is this a bug? :-o
Hey there, after receiving your first Gift, you'll be brought to the 2nd gamescreen. It should say "Ascended" at the top half of your screen. If that is the case, check the left side, you should see an arrow pointing to the left. Click it and you'll be brought back to the 1st gamescreen :)
Hey there, exporting a file is still bugged sometimes. Feel free to send me an e-mail with your export file and I'll see if I can get it fixed :) The next update will also fix a known issue, that has to do with exporting a save file, so hopefully this won't happen in the future!
Hey there, I already have plans on how to add more content like skills and abilities and features (including the ability to reset skill points and increase stats with leftover skill points). It will take some time as my first priority is to enhance the main game, especially since the Devotion Update didn't bring everything I had planned to release. But I'm on it and I'll work on it as soon as I can :) Of course there'll also be a bonus or reward for playing Meowruto RPG soon

Ascended with one gift available, now I can't even purchase new cat characters or powers as before to incrase the petting? Therefore I'm stuck?
Hey there, does the text "Ascended" appear near the top of your screen? If yes, you are on the 2nd gamescreen. You can switch back to the first clicking the arrow on the left side of the screen. If no, then this is certainly a bug, that I'll need to fix
