How does your game fit the theme?
The game is set in a terrarium where you, are represented by a large hand which contrasts with a very small critter in your care. We use scale within the environment art, applying a tilt shift effect for emphasis. The story also explores relationship building and the scale of time.

Cute game! The music is really peaceful. Also I felt like the hand was a little slow to follow your mouse but it wasnt too bad
Very unique idea - haven't played a tamagotchi game in probably 20 years? The accidents that can happen with the hammer are pure comedy! Would love to see more gameplay!
Cure game, I enjoyed doing the tasks for the pet and the visuals look really nice, although there were a few accidents with the big hammer. Well done on the game!
Really fun and cute game! I did have a bit of a misunderstanding at the naming part though, and uhhhh....
But apart from that mistake on my part this game was really good, I loved the different task you could do and the... "casualties" that may occur. Overall, 15/15 game
Cute game! Now I'm scarred for life. Just kidding. The hammer interacting with the house just felt like I was trying to get to collision shapes to interact and didn't feel like building or hammering. Overall a fun game with a lovable little character!
I beat the game! I squashed my little guy but I think I had just managed to trigger the end screen, because it said to restart - but then I got the end screen! I got lucky I guess :D
A creative take on the theme, the art works really well for it. And I loved that you could name your little pet, that's awesome. Well done!
Now that was... unexpected. I felt so bad as a player aaaah but I think the dev has successfully shocked and immersed me in this one. Enjoyable gameplay with shock value for sure. The 2D and 3D visual combination is also very creative. Good job on this game, now I would like to take care of another tamagotchi.
Very cute and cozy game, I felt so bad the first time I killed the little critter. Very well done!
Omg noooo it all happened so fast... Steve...
So cute, great work! Hammering the house was a little funky and I think the hand movement could've been a little more responsive, but in general thought it was cute and fun!
It's so cute and emotionally scarring. everything I want in a Tamagotchi game!
Loved it, very cute all the way through. Even at the end it finished with one of my favourite Dr Seuss quotes!
Really love the art style, game reminds me of old school tamagotchi game where you need to keep care of a small creature too lol
