I like the visuals a lot, with the particle effects and everything there's a lot of effort put into this.

This was a new experience ^^ The voice lines, interactions and pet design made a really funny situation together - good job!

Really clever idea! I love what you did with scale in the game. It was a ton of fun chasing after my Giga Pet in the jeep to feed them.

Great idea of trying to take care of somebody who is huuuuge. The atmosphere is really cool, I liked riding on dunes, especially since I saw the new Dune movie fairly recently. Minimap with the location of the creature might be nice, because I liked the driving part and at some point I lost the thing and just yolo'd outside the map. Btw, there is no way to reset the game once I am unders the texture. Nice view in there though :)

Developer

Yeee you gotta hard reset hahaha there are many rough edges

I like the idea of this game!
Looking after a pet double your side was awesome, the 3D models and sound design of the pet is awesome, with it being kinda spooky. And I love the Tamagotchi UI !

Developer

Haha thanks! I wanted to make it even bigger and go for shadow of colossus style climbing but it was too ambitious

Very cool concept! The 3d models look really good and I like that the pet actually comes if you drop food. Good job!
