Press release:
[October 15, 2026] – Cat Secretary, originally set to launch November 4th, has been delayed until January 20th, 2027. The team at Good Story Guild wants to deliver the best experience possible for Cat Secretary’s 15-20 hour adventure. With this extra time, the team is continuing to add features, fix bugs, and incorporate feedback from those who have played the game’s free demo, and optimize the game for Steam Deck while avoiding crunch.
Underneath a cozy layer of fur, Cat Secretary takes a strong anti AI stance within the game’s narrative. The charm of this story-rich adventure, and your time at DOX as the titular cat secretary becomes even more important now! The delay isn’t long enough to let the robots take over, but you’ll definitely need to be on your toe beans come January.
About Cat Secretary

Save the Company: Generative AI and unsustainable growth are delivering maximum value to shareholders. But what about the heart and soul of DOX? Can one little cat save a company that has embraced innovation at any cost? Let’s circle back on that!
Unfortunately, the cat’s back in the bag for just a bit longer, but you can wishlist Cat Secretary now and give it a try with a fully playable demo available now. Every demo save will still transfer over into the full game at the new launch date. Join the office watercooler convos and keep up to date on all things Cat Secretary by joining the official Discord.
About Good Story Guild
In 2023, from opposite coasts, Rachel Music and Elspeth Hunt found themselves frustrated by their once-beloved Hollywood; the entertainment landscape was littered with low-effort remakes and bloated merch grabs, and creativity was being left on the cutting-room floor. As writers, they sought to build something better by starting smaller. Elspeth and Rachel teamed up with pop-punk guitarist and startup veteran Kerrod Williams and feminist horror director Simone Kisiel. Together, they realized that the only way to combat the Content Kaiju would be by putting craft, compassion, and creativity first. Enter: Good Story Guild, a writer-founded studio focused on creating video games with dynamic stories, engaging visuals, and heart. It’s the cornerstone of everything we do. We like to think we’re the cure for the common content.
