I remember when I got my first Volvy e-pet. I loved the guy, even if I had to clean its craps every 15 seconds. I went days upon days without food nor sleep only to dedicate my life to Volvy. 

When the police came to take him from me, I cried so hard I crapped myself, and I´ve had to live with both the crap and the sadness since.

This new Volvy virtual e-pet allows me to complete a period of my life that was taken from me. It allows me to finally live all those beautiful moments that I was supposed to have with my best friend. From the bottom of my heart, thank you.

1. Hi there! What's your name? Want to introduce yourself?

Name's Mario, from Spain. Not much to say, studiying computer science in Oviedo although I've been programming for a while on my own now.

2. Did you participate in the last jam we held? If so, what do you plan on doing better this time? If not, what's your reason for joining?

Didn't participate, but I'm excited! I have participated in another jams before, and I just feel like programming a little videogame for fun. Thought might as well join this and have a little extra fun!

3. What games are your favorites? Did any of them inspire you, or made you want to make your own? 

Puzzle games, although I have absolutely no idea about how to program those. Might try on this jam though. The game that actually inspired me to start programming was minecraft though.

4. Do you have experience with game development? What did you do/with what engine?

I used unity in 3 game jams before (one here on itch and the other two were presential). Also, I have used Phaser a bit before and made some easy and mostly text-based games using pure javascript and c++.

5. Tell us about something you're passionate about!

Programming! Loved it almost from the start. The process of making a thing of your own and watch it grow before your eyes is just so good. Although there are a lot of things that can give you that same feeling (Drawing, woodwork, sculpting...) programming is the one I like the most because it is the one that has less physical work involved.

6. What are your goals for this game jam?

Nothing special. Just have a nice time.

Played it and was pretty frustrating when I got with the 4 keys to the door and it didnt open or do anything.

Also, I find it way too easy (I didnt even have any energy problem, finished with 563) but thats my point of view.

Pretty good job tho :3
