PATIENCE? No patience! I have waited too long (3 days) I WANT IMMEDIATE GRATIFICATION!!! IMMEDIATE! I WANT MY REWARD SEROTONIN RIGHT NOW!!!!!
The Simulator’s finished!
After 3 years of work, I have finally finished my Tamagotchi fan-game!
Before downloading:
Uninstall the previous version!
Then you must remember that when installing you cannot save it on the default location!
–IMPORTANT EDIT: I have found that in the latest version, installing in the dafault folder Does work. If it doesn’t work at first, try downloading in a different location. Opening as an administrator helps sometimes, too.
Also, bear in mind that this version uses different controls, using the mouse more, you can use the mouse wheel for scrolling between pages (you can hold shift while clicking if you have no mouse), and right-click to view the stats in numbers instead of bars!
Use F11 while on the main screen to make the screen bigger!
Download link!
If you want to join the Discord server, send me an ask (not anonymous, please) and I will send you the invite link!
Please ask any questions you might have!

As a millennial and an adult capable of basic situational awareness, it’s hard for me to empathize with the (obnoxious) attitude of “kids these days have it too easy.” Because I cannot imagine a greater luxury than being able to securely believe that younger generations have a meaningful future. We are living in an age of decline, and holy shit guess what? I want younger people to have it easier than my peers and I did. I dream and wish for that. I want there to be good things ahead, good childhoods and meaningful opportunities and rich and abundant lives, waiting to greet the children born after me. I want future generations to be healthier, and happier, and more joyful, and more free. I want that for everyone, everywhere, immediately–but if we can’t have it today, I want the promise that it could come tomorrow.
I want the privilege of believing that the future can be glorious, regardless of whether I get to be around to see it.
I want hope, motherfucker.
Not simply for me. Not for the children or grandchild I will never get around to having. I want hope for everyone who comes after. For countless and innumerable future people. I want that more than anything. And I am aware of the many, many hurdles–new hurdles, emerging hurdles–we will have to overcome in the here and now to get to such a future. And if I don’t live to see the payoff–it will still be so fucking worth it, as long as someone, in some future, does.
So shut up about kids these days, and start caring about kids today, and tomorrow, and in the faraway and inescapable future that is hurdling towards you at lightspeed. Within centuries and minutes all that remains of your words and your bones will be the state of the world you and yours left behind. There’s your legacy–talk about that. And give a damn, motherfucker.
suggestions for gender neutral version of mom/dad? something less formal than just ‘parent’
please note that while progenitor, guardian, spawnpoint etc are all respected titles, they are more the equivalent of mother/father than an affectionate nickname you would scream through the house multiple times a day. gimme something we can use people
I just tried to combine the words and got “dom” and i cant-
but wait, if we reverse ‘dom’ you get ‘mod’. I suggest we use ‘moderator’ as a gender neutral version of mom/dad
Admin and op would work makes them sound powerful and in charge of everything
Admin (respectful) Op (derogatory)
i was going to add something else to this but instead i got to thinking and i was like huh. what could you use.
in most languages the word for ‘mother’ usually starts with an M, because phonetically [m] is one of the easiest sounds for a newborn to make when they start babbling, and mothers tend to be the one most around the child. so in my mind that crosses M off the list, because it’s automatically associated with a feminine figure
similarly, ‘father’ tends to start with D, T, P, or B. (phonetically these sounds are very close together; [p, b] and [d, t] are all only different because of being voiced or unvoiced.) these are also phonetically easy letters and ones kids pick up on earlier.
now the hard sounds for kids are the following: [ɹ, d͡ʒ, tʃ, θ, ð] or in normal speak: the English R, the “j” or “dge” sound in “judge,” the “th” sound in “thigh” and the “th” sound in “the.” and we don’t want kids unable to say their parent’s name for years, so those are also off the list.
additionally, it’s easiest for young kids to just repeat the same sound twice rather than figuring out the tongue gymnastics of putting different sounds together, which is why kids will say Ma-Ma or Da-Da and not Ma-Mo or Da-Po. and we’ll want to stick with low back vowels like “ah” and avoid ones like the hard “i” or “ee.”
so what does that leave us? when we want a sound kids can learn easily and early but don’t want to just put a funky spin on “mama” or “dada”?
my suggestions: G, K, W, L. i personally lean towards W and L. they’re called liquids, since they’re the consonants that kind of aren’t consonants, and kids (and ESL learners) will tend to swap out the English R for a W or L until they can learn the R.
if i ever have a child, they’ll start calling me Wawa. then when they get older, they’ll call me Wala, or maybe even Wally.
and then, once they’re finally phonetically developed, they can call me by my true title as their nonbinary guardian for their 18+ years:
Waluigi.
Okay, but on an actually serious note, Baba is used in several different languages, but the meaning changes between mother, father, or grandparent. However, it is not used in English afaik, so it could be a good English option.
baba is what I use as a nonbinary parent (it has a long history for butches!) and this post hit me like a two-by-four to the back of the goddamn HEAD
How about Tata, because no matter what, they’re gonna try to latch onto a nipple
wait wait wait, do babies try to latch on to the nipples of non-lactating parents too? is this a thing? do babies just automatically zero in on any nipple in the vicinity, regardless of the presence of breasts or breast milk? is this an experience cis men deal with I need to KNOW
UPDATE: based on the notes the answer is a resounding YES!!!
I can’t speak to cis men’s experience, but my house has this kind of lamp, and my progeny were both very fascinated by it whenever I would carry them under one of them.
The lamp thing is legit, I’ve discussed it with so many fellow breastfeeding parents. The weirdest one for me was when my son latched onto the tied knot of a balloon.
I am so so grateful I decided to scroll through the tags:
merry crimmas and happy holidays my guys, have some garbage experimental artwork of a very cold humanoid creature in nondescript snow :^) stay bundled up, unlike this idiot <3
