DeskPets is a virtual pet game meant to pay homage to the Tamagotchi. In this game, you take care of a virtual pet, balancing its activities and making sure it doesn't die. Even when the game is closed, your pet still lives on and, if left unattended for long enough, will eventually die. Make sure to feed your pet and regularly check in on it to ensure it lives a long and happy life.

The game is meant to be played on your desktop, just running in the background where you can occasionally check up on your pet. It's not meant as a game you play regularly but just something you check up on occasionally to make sure your pet is doing well.

This was just a fun side project that I started as something to do when I couldn't sleep, and as such I won't be updating the game.
