As kids, we loved playing pet games and tamagotchi. It was the time when the internet was full of screen-savers, flash videos and dumb mini-games when I got my first PC. I also thought it would be a good beginner’s project from a developer’s point of view. And my wife, Dana, just loves doing things with me, so she was ready to rumble! As I already had some basic programming experience and Dana likes to draw, we decided to make this game.

Back to the game. I chose Unity as my game engine, as it seemed easy to learn and is free to use. Creating our pet, we tried to achieve a Disney-alike Comic look. All graphics are handmade by us and we put a lot of love and way more time than planned into this project. Of course, this post is some kind of advertising our game. Every little bit helps as the competition is very high and we don’t have any money for paid advertising. The mobile market is a crazy place (we didn’t know this when we started :D).

But this is also the chance for us to get some real useful critic to improve our game through updates. And who could give us better feedback than you guys who know what it means to work on a self-made game project. So, we would be very grateful to read your review and hear your opinion on our very first game.
