*Love* the graphics for this! Really brought me back to my old Tamagotchi days (of course I killed mine...didn't we all back then?) Definitely needs some more gameplay, but really great first gamejam submission! Be proud of yourself!

Was really fun taking care of my virtual pet to see how it would evolve, the graphics are really cute and well crafted. great job :)
Was wondering if the food button was bugged(pun intended) or something, but of course eggs dont eat! the problem now is i dont want to let the little bettle butterfly die!
Thank you so much for your feedback ! I think it's lacking a bit of feedback as well, I would like to implement a short message telling something like "what are you trying to do ?" or "feeding your egg doesn't work". I could also implement an action to warm the egg and help it evolve ? Also the game ending was a bit rushed, I definitely need to allow people to pause the game or something, maybe free the bug so it doesn't die ? Thanks again ! :)
Brought me right back to when I had a tamagotchi, such cute artstyle, I only wish there was more to do!
Very cute art, a chill and peaceful game, not very challenging but a good time for sure!
A great foundation on which to add a few tweaks and features if you feel like it ;)
This is sooo cute. As someone who had Tomagachis as a kid, this was really nostalgic. The art style is wonderful, and I loved the sparkles added whenever you got a new stage of the pet you had. Also the multiple choices for the case around was a good touch!
My only thing with it is. as others said, it gets a little bit repetitive. I'd love to see some little mini games while leveling up my little friends in the game :)
Super cute though, and definitely relaxing. Great job!!
The art style is brilliant! This game made me feel quite nostalgic, even though I didn't own a tomagatchi myself, I've seen and heard a lot about them when I was a kid. The music was wonderful too!
My only issue was that it got quite repetitive after a while.
Other than that, great work!
The interface looks great! The game is simple but you really nailed it with the cute art and I was really looking forward to see my evolved mushi :D. Good job!
For a moment, it seemed like the music was in sync with the game ticking down, and it was amazing. It desynced eventually, but I think syncing them intentionally would be nice!
The art is super nice and polished! The gameplay is super simple, which is fine, but it gets repetitive really quickly. Other than that, really nice game!
Fantastic game! The art is super cute and cohesive. It's a short, sweet experience that is incredibly polished. My favorite aspect, too, is that the game can be played with arrow keys. It's something I wish more clicker-style games would adopt since it's a much more enjoyable experience.
I’m not sure if I played it the right way, but it turned into a clicker game for me—I just kept rushing and pressing the buttons until it evolved and progressed. Now I’m trying to remember if my Tamagotchi used to feel like that too... Anyway, it’s a really cute game with sharp interpretation of the theme and adorable graphics. I loved playing it!
You are absolutely right, tamagotchi are way slower as their objective is to last several days ! I didn't want to force other jam-ers to spend days testing the game, but I'm definitely considering a version where you can come back once a day to do a few actions to take care of your creature ! Thank you so much for your feedback !
the art is so cuteee and even tho the gameplay is simple was really nice and relaxing to play uwu
The graphics were cute, but the days took a little long. Would be nice to add a little variance in the gameplay between forms.
