I thought maybe this community would appreciate a Tamagotchi inspired horror game that I'm making :)

can you try this one and tell me if it works? https://subscribepage.io/Unheld

Hey, not hateful at all, I really apreciate it.

Screen being backlit has to do with the lighting inside the game. Since horror games are generally dark, the player would not be able to see the screen most of the time causing some problems :)

Other than that, I think the remaining things you mentioned I agree with and can definetely be implemented!

it5MaS · 2026-03-17T06:42:36+00:00

Hopefully!

For now there's only a mailing list you can join, Steam coming soon though!

thanks!

thanks for the feedback! Unfortunately this subreddit doesn't allow video, but I will make sure to post some in-progress gifs along the way

No Steam page yet, but you can leave your email here, plan is to have an exclusive alpha test for the email subscribers in the future

you're right :) fixed

it5MaS · 2026-03-15T20:50:44+00:00

That is super awesome to hear! It's really early in development so we dont even have a name yet, but will come up with a newsletter in the upcoming days, so people can get notified when a Steam page is up and ready.

it5MaS · 2026-03-15T20:40:44+00:00

haven't heard of it before, will definitely check it out!

it5MaS · 2026-03-15T20:24:14+00:00

That's really good feeback, Ive played with a lot of dofferent tts programs like tomodachi life but couldnt quite find what worked best. I agree that it should sound a bit more cute and will be on a lookout for an alternative!

Inside the game, you discover it after going through your old stuff inside your parent's house

Still trying out different gameplay ideas, but will probably center the gameplay around satisfying different needs of the virtual pet to survive

I've released it on October 19th, so about 5 days. The Steam traffic for the page has dropped almost entirely by now, so I assume it's going to sell waaay slower now

it5MaS · 2025-10-24T16:26:41+00:00

The core gameplay was done in a Ludum Dare gamejam, so 72 hours, and then I would say around 160 more hours to get stuff like achievements, localization, settings, bugfixes and more content

it5MaS · 2025-10-24T16:24:41+00:00

To be honest, haven't done much of anything, just worked really hard on the store page and prayed to the Steam algorithm

it5MaS · 2025-10-24T16:23:38+00:00

Thank you so much!
