You have an extremely oversized pocket pet game, and you need to feed and play with your pet Blobby! Smash grubs and flies to feed Blobby. Collect coins so you can play with Blobby. Don't leave Blobby sad or hungry for too long, or it will perish :(. Can you keep Blobby fed, happy and alive until the timer runs out?
Controls: * Arrow keys to move * Press Z to jump * Press X to slash attack
Hints: * There are two buttons, one to feed and one to play. Slash the button to activate * Collecting coins allows you to activate the play button * Smashing grubs and flies allows you to activate the feed button
Great game, original idea, flawless execution. One thing though, when exiting the game, the window stays open for a little bit longer. Not sure if that's intended to save data or something, or if it's a glitch with the Godot engine. Overall, the game is great!
Good concept, but the art is bland and there's no visual feedback to anything. It doesn't feel fun or rewarding to play. It's not immediately obvious what you're supposed to do or what causes you to lose.
Sadly I haven't played any tamagotchis, so I can't really judge the Theme too accurately. I do have to say that the health and food indicators are not very clear--it seems like when they're empty, you don't immediately lose--you lose after some amount of time. This means that once the bar is empty, it isn't really clear when the game will end, and you kind of have to just hope that you'll make it in time.
I'm a simple man, I see gameboy colors, I click. :D Very nice entry! I love the combination of the genres for this theme. Graphics and music fit the style and mood. Only thing I'd say perhaps looks off are the enemies and the player, since they are drawn in a higher resolution than the rest of the world. Overall, great work, really relaxing!
You managed to nail the feel of the game. It looks great, the sound is great and you definitely got the theme right. If I had to point out one flaw, it's that the game mechanics might be a little bit too simplistic but that also contributes to the game's Game Boy-esque aesthetic. I had fun with the game so good job!
I like the idea of tamagotchi/platformer, I like the music and the style. The thing is I don't understand why I die and I agree that it would be nice to have some visual feedbacks about what happend. But this is still nice :)
I like this idea of a character trapped inside a tamagochi, working like a slave to meet its needs. it would be cool if at the end the tamagochi was like a boss at the end. Like it breaks free if not satisfied. The player would have to evolve it as much as possible to get a high score.
Perhaps it's because I've never played Tamagochi but I've never really felt the fun. For somebody without this nolstalgia feeling, it feels a little poor.
