Cool little game. I really like the art style, too bad you didn't animate the sprites. The sounds are good as well. For a first game it's very good, keep it up! :thumbsup:

Very fun, arcady game. The graphics look nice and the gameplay loop is rather nice. Could use some music tough:D

I like the game, but such a small display is quite annoying. It's also a little easy. Nice game though

I had a tamagotchi as a kid, if you looked away to sneeze it was dead, so the amount of bloodshed in this game is pretty accurate. Love the art!

Nice, I like the graphic.
But, it's quickly redundant and the absence of music is quickly felt.

Nice little game, a bit repetitive but simple and fun, good job!

The hitboxes felt a bit off. Especially because of the shadows of the "virtual pets". The art suggests an angled view, so it is quite irratating, that they collide once their shapes overlap. The art itself is really cute though :)

And love the art style and it was fun to play!

Things to improve (imho):
- Some powerups would be great to use (pew pew fast, move fast, dash, invulnerability, etc)
- Some poop-throwing miniboss maybe? :smile:
- Minimap (why not?)
- Some win condition or top-score boards.

Here is my playtest:

I love this <3 the number of poops is true to life for what I remember about these little guys. :grimacing:
