Took me a while to figure out how to navigate the menus with the two buttons. How long does it take to fully grow one?

@paraboxx It only takes a couple minutes to grow a fully grown adult person, as long as you keep all of your vitals above 80%. They won't grow if they aren't nourished. ;) It takes much longer to let them die.

Have to agree with paraboxx with the menu navigation. Interesting idea, seemed to take awhile for death, and for them to leave.

This is pretty cute. I think a minute or so to grow a person is about right really. :) Pretty unique though!

Like others have said, the menu navigation is a bit difficult to figure out at first. I liked the bounce animation it made the simple graphics feel like they had a little more depth.

Yup, I hate my controls! If I pick this project back up after voting ends, overhauling the controls will be first on my list! Just wanted to say I covered both themes, even if just out of spite for everyone who pushed me into a two-button corner. >:-D

Great Job! Hopefully you've caught the LD bug now. Glad I got to help you out a bit. It definitely brings back memories of having a tamagotchi.

Nice game! It would have been interesting with some more challenge keeping the Pocket Person at good health. But I enjoyed the calm mood of it.
