I've never played these kinda games before! Thank for you opportunity! A cool new experience!
A simulation simulation?
I wasn't expecting that :D
sadly can't play it, because somehow my browser always crashes when i klick play :(
Mac OSX (Air M1)
Chrome (recent stable)
I'm so sorry to hear that :( I'm not entirely sure what the issue could be.
Always a fan of an evolution tree, that's why I went with something similar for mine :) Very cute creature designs and a cute little simulator.
Ah the nostalgia in this. Felt like I was playing with my old Rancor tamogatchi again. I'm excited to see how this grows, there's a lot of potential here!
Yea! I was really going to the nostalgia bit. I'm already building a list of things I would like to add! hope you get to try it again when it gets some more updates!
I like this idea, it's cute. Especially how it's a 3D object, you can go even further with that and make the buttons a physical object you need to push, have "beeping" sounds coming from an AudioStreamPlayer3D from a little speaker on it, having you need to open the back to replace the battery occasionally, stuff like that. A real Tamagochi simulator! Also, as it's 2022 there's so much you can do with logic and programming that simply wasn't feasible in those tiny computers, beyond just picking up poop and feeding them.
Heck, you could even throw in evolutionary algorithms in there with genes and all, could be an interesting title. It just needs to be in a format where it's easily available, like a home screen widget for the phone or a webapp, so people can check in on it occasionally instead of dedicating their entire focus to the game.
Heck Yea! I wanted to do a much but it was a bit ambitious for my first game jam. Though I do hope to keep adding to it and really make it something complete!
For sure, I wasn't saying this in the context of "what it should have been", but as an encouragement to keep working on it as there's a lot of potential in the idea! You achieved something really great for your first jam and I'm impressed!
Throwback, very nice :D
Love It!
Very cute
Ohh, so cute game :)
Nice concept. the lil' funky guy was super cute and fun to feed
