Bun-o-gotchi by m110
Tamagotchi meets Pokémon!
*This Ludum Dare was the first one fully remote for us. We decided to pick a well-known genre, but add some twists on our own. *
Here are some useful tricks how to take care of your bun-o-gotchi:
- First take some eggs and put them into the room, after that adjust the tempreture
- you can see if it's too hot or too cold for it (ice cube or fire)
- most of species like mild temperature, but you need to watch the reactions!
- provide food once its hungry
- tidy-up some poos (yes its important!)
- give it time to rest and sleep once in a while
- and play together with the ball! (give the ball to the bun)
Controlles: Mouse
Bun-O-Gotchi is a game about hatching eggs, growing up buns and cleaning a lot of sht out of the floor! Be carefull though because you can easily get lost in a role of *mother of buns. Have fun and write in comments how many eggs have you managed to grow up!

@mantaraytv-games Thanks! We are learning with every LD!
@human-writes-code Sorry to hear you had some problems. As we described over the screenshots, the idea is to take an egg, give it proper tempreture (it will give feedback either it wants it cold or hot) and it will hatch, after that you take care of your little bun. Thanks for the feedback, we will take it in mind!
@hundred Thanks as i mentioned above, you need to place the egg on the floor, after that change the tempreture and it will hatch after some time. If you would like (we would love to) give it another try and let us now if everything worked. If not, please tell us. Thanks for the good words!
@frozen-spirit Thanks! We glad you enjoyed it! The play the ball just give it to the "bun", its sad but we run out of time to put some micro-games.
@vignesh-raj Thanks for the feedback! Well fix that!
@enya454 Yeah, that was one of the known issues, although its harder that way, if we were to make this game in the future that would be fixed for sure, maybe diffrent rooms, each one with diffrent tempreture. Glad you enjoyed and thanks for playing!
@savolae Sorry to hear that, we are happy that you enjoyed it! We will prepare better instructions! Thanks!
@osis Thanks so much!!! The last words after putting it online we said " damn, this game would be perfect for mobile" as you would just drag your finger over the "buns". The hotkeys is also a good idea!
@dreamcastgh0st Oh! Thanks so much for your words! At some point maybe we went little bit too far of developing diffrent needs, but at the same time we wanted to put so much more - but run out of time. Thanks for the feedback, we will take that in mind and try to make the game better!
@timetravelhamster Thanks for feedback, we are working on some instructions! Thanks for playing!
@modalmodule Haha, glad you enjoyed it! We worked really hard on the pooping moments.
@mrs-wheelsx Thank you so much! I think all "pet" games are addicting! We are very happy to hear you enjoyed it!
@rustywolf Thanks for the feedback, and for checking out our game! We will try our best to balance out the diffrence needs, so the player can focus on each "bun" at the same time!
I did not understand what to do though when after placing some of the eggs on the table, they wouldn't hatch. I tried putting them in the incubator but that wouldn't work, so I was probably doing something wrong :see_no_evil:
The ones that hatched were fun to take care of!
@sndr Thanks you for playing! Thanks for kind words, that means a lot for our team! Some of the eggs require diffrent tempretures for hatching, but it could get little tricky/glitchy the best way is to try keep the same species of eggs alive at the same time, due to tempreture controll. We would like to add diffrent rooms for diffrent eggs in the future. Thanks once again for playing!
I enjoyed changing the temperature of the room per egg and the added foods available.
Like mentioned before hotkeys would be a great addition to the game (:
@ponypen Thank you for playing! To play with the * bun * you need to just take the ball and put it over the * buns * head it will take care of it and become happy. This is very important part of evolving so we are sorry you could get that, but we recommend trying it again! Let us know how it went. Thanks for playing !
@amazura Thank you so much for your kind words! Glad you enjoyed playing our game!
Great take on the theme, the genre is obviously a perfect match. Another thing that stood out to me was the great art on the buns, I loved them. Wonderful game!
@daniel-cox Thanks for kind words and trying our game!
@khud0 Thanks so much! We are very happy that you enjoyed our game!
@marcusnystrand Thank you for your kind words! Glad you enjoyed!
@eduardogacn Thank you so much!
@foxxy Thanks for playing and for the feedback! Yeah, the playing tool could use some sound/animation. Our goal was to put some small games like snake/pong for you to play as the "ball" effect... but we run out of time. Thank you once again for feedback!
