Is strange how adorable and creepy this is!!!! Great job!!!
Woah, this is fantastic! The glitch effects with the jumpscares and sound effects really give off an unsettling vibe, especially with the boarding of the door and windows as the game progressed. If I played this game as a kid I would have been really spooked. The virtual pet aspect was also well done.
Awesome job!
Very creepy! I loved it, such a cute start and the dance mini-game really nail the virtual pet aspect and the glitch-graphics are amazing!
Definitely the most spooky game of the jam I've played yet even though it starts out super cute. Is the game supposed to end in that noisy screen? I've tried multiple times and that's always where I end up and nothing seems to happen. Anyway, great job!
Clever, and great use of glitch graphics
Awesomely spooky game, and having added a dance minigame is a super nice touch !
Beautiful and creepy! I love the design of the gameboy/tamagotchi hendheld, I want one!
Love the dance mini game. Wasn't expecting the cute critter to come with jump scares. Great game!
Perfect. A fullscreen button would be nice though.
im scared
Fantastically spooky, love the beginning cut scene intro! Well done!
This little guy got me creeped out.
Visuals and sound design work really well together, good job!
How I ended up like this after mastering the dancing-pad Q.Q (which could even be another game :D). Really cool, really creepy - but in a good way, great atmosphere and visuals. Great job!
it says I can't rate it :(
edit: i rated it

Great idea to have the gameboy in the cutscene
Thank you !!
Crazy cool game. Super scary and well implemented.
Fantastic! I love how you twisted the pet sim genre and made something truly unique. <3 10/10
10/10, hands down
Okay, I absolutely hated that. When I say hated I mean LOVED it. The work and passion that went into this really shines through!
God damn, what a great experience.
AN EXQUISITE EXPERIENCE INDEED. MOST APPEALING. SUCH JOY!
This was REALLY well made! tho I did get stuck (?) on the static screen. LOVE THE IDEA + ART STYLE
10/10
Really cute! Not sure how to interact with the "spooky stuff" or if I'm even supposed to. I also found out that I suck at rhythm games. :D
