How does your entry adhere to the theme "virtual pet"?
Manage the resources of your Snurb by feeding or giving supplies, watch them work and balance their happiness if you want to keep them and if you want to see their newly built projects. An overly content Snurb will wander around for fun until they are too bored and then they will eventually start working again. If they are too unhappy they might leave you.

Cute little game! I included it in my Virtual Pet Jam compilation video series, if you’d like to check it out. :)

This was cute and fun! I admit it took me a bit to interpret the thumbs up and thumbs down buttons and figure out what they did, but nice work! I really like the art style a lot.

Nice game, I love the aesthetics. I just wish there was more feedback when you take certain actions, like perhaps the text at the top could display stuff like "Successfully resupplied." etc.

Thank you so much! That's a good idea. Some status bars of maybe some kind of trail of light that traveled to the food bin or supply shelf.  Something to give feedback to the player visually.

Thank you so much! The Snurbs mean a great deal to me. I hope to do more with them in the future.

Really cute, it'd be nice if there was some kind of progression in the game.

Thank you! I have some ideas for a sequel of sorts that will definitely add more interaction and some upgrades. This was a lot of fun to work on.
