the aim of the game is simple- everyone gets together and starts playing with some manner of virtual creature/being, whether that's a traditional vpet toy, a simulation game on your computer, a game with some manner of virtual life element, anything, at the more or less same starting point. 

people share what they're up to and how things are going when and how they like, and at the end of the day, it's an excuse to play games together and connect with folks even if we bring different mediums to enjoy weird little creatures to the table.

the optional theme of this CreatureFest is Tide Pool, and can mean anything you want within that. 
SUGGESTED GAMES YOU COULD DO BUT ARE NOT REQUIRED OR LIMITED TO IN THE SLIGHTEST
IRL Vpet/Robot Toys such as Tamagotchi, Furby, Digimon, etc
Petsites such as Neopets, Webkinz, etc
Simulation games such as Sims, Petz, Creatures, Digimon World, Wobbledogs, etc
Games with creature elements such as Spore, Squeakross, Digimon Stories, Pokemon, Beastieball, etc
Games with like a specific minigame area that isn't even the main focus but you COULD do it like Chao Garden in Sonic Adventure or any other variety of side mechanics in god knows how many games
Mobile Apps/Idle Games, i'm out of the loop but i know Neko Atsume exists still. it counts. 


CHALLENGES YOU COULD CONSIDER DOING BUT YOU ARE ALSO NOT REQUIRED OR LIMITED TO IN THE SLIGHTEST
Raise a digital creature from birth to whatever logical endpoint there is
Make a character of some kind for your creature(s)
Make art of your creatures in whatever form you like
Post updates about your creatures and discuss how things are going
Make up challenges of your own to either further your own experience and/or throw at other participants
Engage with other peoples' creatures/posts
Just vibe with folks at your own pace

the CreatureFest will start on FRIDAY, JULY 4TH and have no set stop date, and late participation/joining is zero issue at all. literally don't worry about it. just hop in and party. 

thread below can be used for any commentary, update posts, questions, whatever, and i'll go whip up a discord channel to match.]]> welcome to the Homebrew Deviants CREATUREFEST event! this is a casual event in the vein of virtual pet "group hatches", with a lot more wiggle room and freedom.
