Incredibly fun game. Gameplay loop was fun and rewarding, and very enjoyable to see number grow.

Interesting take on the theme.  But perhaps the tams could multiply after a while, with different types of tams have differing needs.  For example, some may want certain types of toys to keep them entertained.

Amazing options menu.  Most comprehensive I've seen in a game jam.  This was really impressive, even if most people didn't seem to notice.

Some minor issues: scrolling the instructions also scrolled the game.  Dragging the boxes with left click interferes with left clicking the buttons.  Make mouse right click drag the box.  A zoom option would really have helped out.

I'm a bad pet owner! Nice Game!

I reaally loved that you could merge the tamtoys. I would’ve loved it if there was some variety in the tams, even if just aesthetic. It also really reminded me of those old Cubes you could put next to each other to get the little guys to do different activities. Nice job!

If I have some time to make an update after the jam, more tam variety (functional and aesthetic) is definitely near the top of the list

I tried for a very long time to reach peta, but it is stronger than me :( Still, it kept me busy for a couple of hours! Thanks!

Addictive gameplay!
Remind me of my old Digimon device~ XD

You call this a clicker game but it quickly kinda starts feeling more like a really frantic management game, really fun but a bit of a misnomer.

Only main issues are that the UI buttons render behind the TamToys and you can't click on them, and that the screen still zooms when you're scrolling through the store or help menu, clean those bugs up and and you've got yourself a very cute little game here.

The first game I genuinely couldn't stop playing, so cool! Such a unique idea. Got to the largest size I think, then the sound was hurting my ears XD
Small UI bug with the "shop" and "?" buttons not working when a Tamega is near it

Really glad you liked it, and getting to the largest size is a massive achievement. Thanks for playing!

I didn't know I needed a tamagotchi clicker, but now I do. But daamn I thought this was gonna be chill and turned out way more stressful than it looked. Very well done, incredible game!

This is actually the cutest thing ever

Nice take on the theme! It's fun, quite and looks great!

I really enjoyed the phenomenal art and vibes of this game, but something about the pacing seemed off. I also think it would have been helpful to either pause the game while the shop is open or have a way to quickly exit the shop (e.g., clicking anywhere else on screen)! Overall, really lovely work though; I really enjoyed playing this on stream!

Developer(+1)

Appreciate the feedback! Thanks for playing this on stream :)

Submitted(+1)

This was really fun! I liked that the mechanic was to merge together instead of getting auto clickers. If I had one suggestion it would be to pause the game while the shop is open, I got super stressed trying to read what things did haha.

Lovely game!!! very nice and quite addicting!

This game was really addictive! I'm obsessed with the limited color palette and how the itch page itself matches the game really well. It just adds to the cohesiveness of the experience.

Charming as hell! Great job! Nothing more to add!
