FriendZoo!

[DIGITAL_HORROR]:

hey, everyone! i've started up a new virtual pet project...but this one's my own game! the weather around here has made it impossible to leave the house, and i work from home anyway...so i started my dream project. i had to look up a lot about coding and found a language that's meant for more visual people to work with, and i've managed to get the basic AI done in the past few weeks as well as my first pet model!

meet...a tiny virtual crackle!


i named this guy party, my first non-test subject pet. i'm thinking about calling the individual pets "friends", because the name of the game is FriendZoo...and like the title implies, i'm starting with actual morbit creatures! i might do some mythical stuff, and i've got some collab stuff with other users in the works, but uhh, real animals in funky colors is my goal for now.

the AI still needs some tweaks, breeding's not in yet, but i managed to get a basic baby -> adult life cycle (i don't want them to die yet tho, i may implement that as an optional mode?), and color randomization. they can interact with each other, and i'm at the stage where i want to start logging progress publicly- both just playing the game, and making new content. i eventually want to release a beta build, but for now, any feedback on what i post would be cool!

on the more silly "pet journal" side of things, i adopted two other friends than party- well...adopted one of them, the other probably came as a result of my ability getting even more messed up than it usually is by the storm. hopefully, the final game won't be haunted! back to my two other friends, though...


this one's zesty- ft. baby picture! named because she looks like a little citrus fruit...


the other crackle i have is speckle, who i did not put in my game! as you can tell, he's got kind of a silly, creepypasta look. i guess my ability is just gonna make weird little guys show up!

i want to learn more about them...stay tuned, i guess!
