ALBAWABA- BlueTwelve's charming and stunning cat game, Stray is getting an animation movie by Annapurna Animation's Nimona!

Stray is an award-winning game that follows the story of a cute orange cat that gets separated from its family after falling into a walled city with cyberpunk elements populated by robots, machines, and mutated bacteria. It sets off on an adventure to find a way back to the outside world.

 Annapurna Animation's lead, Robert Baird joined Entertainment Weekly for an interview in August 2023 and said: 

"This is a game that's all about what makes us human, and there are no humans in it."  

He compared Stray to a buddy comedy about a cat and a robot without humans which was the main selling point of the game including seeing the world through the point of view of an adorable orange cat. He also added that he is hopeful that Annapurna Animation will succeed in adapting Stray into a movie.

Robert also passionately conveyed his team's deep desire to capture Stray's emotion when adapting it to a movie and described the game as having a "sort of 'hope-punk' vibe," which means, optimism is a form of resistance. 

We still have no news about the film's release date or a trailer in the near future. 

What makes Stray special?

Similar to Untitled Goose Game, Stray gives players the opportunity to experience the world through an adorable cat's perspective, hopping from one location to another, passing through spaces where a human would never fit, scratching rugs, napping, and walking on a computer's keyboard. 

The game doesn't follow a cliched story of a protagonist and their mission to save the world but instead, it takes a unique approach by casting players in the role of a lost cat, driven by the wholesome mission of reuniting with its family.
