Your project, your Tamagotchi character, or your attempt at trying to use my system?
How are you doing with adding in the egg @kingnico1133?
looks really cool!
Thanks!
Right now we are going to focus on making the baby Tamagotchi and implementing the actual Tamagotchi mechanisms.
There are three things you can work on. You can choose to:
- Design the baby Tamagotchi sprite, including idle, eating, happy, angry, sick, and sleeping animations. You can also make an animation of them saying no and for when they hatch. We also need icons for "feed", "light", "play", "medicine", "clean", "meter", "discipline", and "attention".
- Code the actual thing. What I mean is making him get hungry, poop, sleep, get sick, and also give the player the ability to care for the Tamagotchi.
- Transfer the pixel art into the system I made. I probably am going to do this though.
This goes for both henhen123 and kingnico1133. (you both can choose, even if you both choose the same thing).
hi I've been trying to understand this system forever and I just can't so sorry I couldn't do the thing you wanted me to do! I can help with anything else ANYTHING!
I can code the game well the potion of the game you want me to! ill just do some research on tamagotchi first it will be fast! no more than a day! (hopefully!)
Completely understandable. I had a feeling that would happen (no offense), so I did it myself. Even I take long using my own system (it took me about 45 minutes to make the egg animation).
Alright! You can help with coding! Maybe you should wait until we have the pixel art for the baby Tamagotchi, and until I implement it into the system. I will add blocks for the animations. Then, you can do the coding all and add in the premade animations so they play at the correct time.
Thanks I was worried!
I take no offense!
Thanks!
Okay got it! ill be waiting! (No rush! Take as much time as you need!)
Oh and I have a few questions!
- do you want the tamagotchi to look the same as the actual game?
- is it going to have all the same features as the original game?
- what lead you into making this project?
(I know some of this might be bad questions sorry)
Here are the answers:
- If you mean the same characters, then you guys can decide. If you mean by different characters but otherwise no difference to appearance, then yes. If you guys want to do Gen 1 or 2, then no pixel art is needed, since I already have it.
- Yes. It will even have a mystery character!
- Hey, my Tamagotchi's battery is going to run out of batteries one day, and I won't be able to buy (I forgot what type they use), so I wanted to make one on Snap!. I also thought it would be cool since I have never seen I remake of it. I've seen SMB, Paper Minecraft, Mario Kart, FNAF, but not an accurate remake of a Tamagotchi.
Also, why does the 3rd question sound like it could be a question from some school survey? (this is a rhetorical question; it's not meant to be answered)
When it is time for the coding, I will give you a list of things that need to be done.
You can use the official Tamagotchi site. I found the manual.
Here it is
I'm gonna start on the pixel art.
Edit: I am goin to transfer it into my system.
Jsyk it is in Japanese.
if you scroll down there are english versions
oh...
I have tons of info I could tell you, I'll just do it later because ei don't have time right now
oh its okay!
Okay, here is all the info that I know of:
Basically, the Tamagotchi will grow up based on how many care mistakes and discipline mistakes you make. Care mistakes mean when you don't care for the Tamagotchi before 15 minutes have passed since the Tamagotchi has lost a heart. A disciplinary mistake means that you were too late in disciplining the Tamagotchi. Too late means that 15 minutes have passed after the Tamagotchi first beeped for discipline.
All Tamagotchi get hungry and unhappy at different rates. The baby gets unhappy and hungry more or less every 4 minutes. You never need to discipline them. The child takes about 45 minutes to get hungry and unhappy. The teenager you get when you take good care of them takes about 1 hour. The best adult Tamagotchi takes about 1 hour and 30 minutes. I am currently not sure about the other Tamagotchis right now. I will change the info later, so be on the lookout for new info.
They also poop at different rates. Babies poop only 2 times in their life cycle. The rest poop about every 3 hours.
The baby takes about 65 minutes to grow up into the child. The child takes 72 hours (3 days, or at age 3/4). The teenager also takes 72 hours (3 days, or age 6/7), regardless of which teen it is. Only 1 adult can grow up into a mystery character, and they take 192 hours (8 days, or age 14/15).
One year for a Tamagotchi is 1 day for us. The age counter goes up every time they wake up
Speaking of waking up, all Tamagotchis wake up and sleep at different times. The baby sleeps for 5 minutes, 30 minutes after hatching. The child sleeps at 8:00 p.m. and wakes up at 9:00 a.m. The teenagers sleeps at 9:00 p.m. and wakes up at 9:00 a.m. The best adult falls asleep at 10 and wakes up at 9. The adult who grows up into the mystery character sleeps and wakes up at 10. Those are the only ones I know...
Not shutting off the light 15 minutes after they fall asleep will result in a care mistake.
Although the discipline meter only goes up to 4, you will still get a disciplinary mistake if you don't discipline it, even if the meter is already full.
When Tamagotchis grow up, they do their idle animation at double speed, then the whole screen turns dark, and this happens two times. They then grow up into the next Tamagotchi in the cycle, and they do their idle animation at double speed. They then proceed to act normally.
The baby poops about 15 minutes after hatching. The baby falls asleep 30 minutes after hatching. After 5 minutes, he wakes up again, and poops right after waking up. About 10 minutes after, he gets sick.
The game we are going to implement is called the "Direction Game". Basically, the you have to guess which direction the Tamagotchi is going to point in. There are five rounds. If you got the majority right (3 or more), then you win, and the Tamagotchi gets happy. If you lose, the nothing really happens, except for the fact that the Tamagotchi's angry animation plays.
For more info, refer to
Here is the baby Tamagotchi:
What do you guys think?
Sprites in order of left to right, up to down:
- idle 1
- idle 2, sick 1, happy 1, angry 1, eat 2
- no 1
- no 2
- eat 1
- happy 2
- angry 2
- sick 2, pooping
And here he is hatching:
THATS REALLY GOOD! like it!
Thanks!
I began to implement the animations in. All I did so far was add in the hatch animation. I also made it slightly easier to use my system.
