My Eldritch Horror

My Eldritch Horror is a Virtual pet/idle game but the little Eldritch abomination in your care has been designed to be as unappealing as possible.  Most of the people who see it hate the way it looks or simply can't look at it so I've purposefully shown just a bit of it.

I was curious if the gameplay of most key chain / tamagatchi-style Virtual pets was still fun when the thing you were taking care of wasn't cute. 

I'm kinda interested if anyone actually likes this or if I really have just spent the last week and a half making something completely unlikeable.

The eldritch horror can  do all this and nothing else ( I didn't want to make it lovable ):

  • Eat.
  • Never sleep always watching.
  • Wonder aimlessly.
  • Feel a porcelain tooth.
  • Grow spores.
  • Get sick.
  • Expire and cease to be.
  • Be generally weird and gross/unsettling to look at.

A record of all departed specimens is kept for prosperity in the form of a cold slab of stone, this is your only reward for the thankless and dreadful drudgery of keeping your unnatural "pet" alive as long as you wish to do so. As you build up tombstones they will have the name of your abomination, how it met its maker and how long you kept it alive in playtime.
