Enjoy time on your Windows PC alongside HUNDREDS...no, THOUSANDS...no, MILLIONS of tiny friends!
Feed them an image file and watch the pixels get munched away! Neglect them and get jumped at! Tend to their mood and receive love and appreciation! Everything is magical with the WORLD'S TINIEST DESKTOP PETS by your side!
In-game tutorial is included, but for reference:
- Mood increases near your cursor, while riding windows, and when eating food
- You can see an overview of happiness in the (i) info panel
- The happier your friends are, the more gold you get
- Buy more friends with gold using the + button
- Press the apple button to open the food folder
- Place actual image files (.PNG, .JPEG) of your choice in the food folder for your friends to eat
- (While the image files are deleted when eaten, a backup is present in the "eaten" folder next to the "food" folder)
- You can drag the UI using the ... bar at the top
- The settings menu contains a few bonus options
Ways to play:
Sadly, the Windows x64 executable is the only way to play this game, though source code is available if you'd like to view or compile for yourself: https://github.com/Caeden117/LudumDare56
Due to the nature of desktop pets, no web build is available. Cross-platform code was out of scope for a game jam. We really tried to make this work in Godot, which would have made Mac & Linux much more feasible, before giving up and switching to Unity :(
Tools used:
- Unity 6
- Paint.NET
- Photoshop
- Audacity
