    I feel like I should add that the first Creatures game was a huge leap in artificial intelligence when it was developed and long before nintendogs there was the Petz series by P.F. Magic (developed almost 20 years ago and still has an active modding community)

      Yeah I've definitely heard alot about Petz! I've never played it myself but I hear it was hugely influential on the genre.

    Then there was 'Black & White' - a god game with a virtual pet at the centre of it. I remember petting my creature; teaching it not to eat people; giving it tattoos...
    I'd like to play that again but I don't think that EA is going to re-release it any time soon. >_>

  • @sebastiankulche
    @sebastiankulche Рік тому +2

    If i miss something about early virtual pets (at least the ones i played), is that they feel more like life simulation games. After the early 2000, virtual pets, both games and toys, started to being much more childlike, with much simplified mechanics (they cannot even die). Although early virtual pets can be sometimes some of the least accessible games for someone who starts playing the first time....
    I would really love a virtual pet that combines the weird aesthetic plus simulation/realistic aspects with a bit of modern accesibility.
    I also miss when virtual pets were not exclusive to portable devices and you could find a few ones on consoles.
    My favorite ones are Seaman, Tamagotchi (some ones, not every one) and Insaniquarium, maybe also Monster Rancher (if we can count it).

      I purchased the newest rerelease of the Tamagotchi from Walmart. I found it unbelievable at first that they could justify the release of such hollow product.
      Then I realized they were literally just trying to cash in on people my age who have kids seeing it and buying it.
      -
      I want to create something in between the first Tamas, Digis, and Gigas
      and something like the latest Tamagotchi versions.
      What I have seen from the maker/Arduino community so far is great but I want that original compact package with interesting and strange new features and ways to play.

    Actually Finfin came out before Hey You Pikachu and was a virtual pet flying dolphin you talked to.
    Also I think Creatures probably should have been in there somewhere...unless you seriously are making a VR virtual pet because then Creatures might make you look bad. It's kinda the best.

    You forgot a few things:
    The precursor to chao were nighttopians in "NiGHTS into dreams" and they were in Sonic Adventure 1 as well as the 2:nd game. You also forgot the I-dog! The doggy that connects to an Ipod.

    If someone is here and looking for a similar game to Tomagotchi from the mid-2000's, I just recently found out that I had an LPS Care For Me Pets! It's like Tomagotchi but the animals (I had a horse) can move around in their 2d world and do activities. Some had straps at the bottom that you could insert into the device and, depending on the strap, the pet could eat or play. There was also a keychain thing at the top and two buttons to the left and right of the screen as controls. Sorry for all the details but I spent a very long time trying to find exactly what I had!
    Hope this helped!

Everytime I try to make the pet game a bit more complicated, I do not like them.
