!gaming is a community for gaming noobs through gaming aficionados. Unlike !games, we don’t take ourselves quite as serious. Shitposts and memes are welcome.

Our Rules:

1. Keep it civil.


Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only.


2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry.


I should not need to explain this one.


3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.


Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.


4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month.


Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

The last one I know of is WobbleDogs, but I'm not sure how much of that is in depth virtual pet vs haha funni streamer bait.

Pretty sure there's a fan made chao garden game that came out last year. Can't speak to it's depth or quality though.


A real mad genius move would be to make a linked desktop game and phone app, like how you could download chaos into the VMU from the Dreamcast Adventure titles and into the GBA Tiny Chao Garden from the GameCube remasters. Get the in depth experience on PC and the tamagotchi/digimon pedometer pet stuff on mobile.

Do all sorts of cross promotion with other indie games, like how Team Fortress 2 used to have special cosmetics unlock if you owned certain other games.


As far as "pocket" pets go, there's a few Digimon "remakes" for Android. Digital Tamers: ReBorn was a good one. I think it's free on itch.io

I tried wobbledogs actually. just..eh. The breeding seems neat but not really a lot too it. But yes, the whole phone/pc/console thing as opposed to VMU is one of my wet dreams when it comes to this shit.
