Loved this game, it was super cute. Was surprised when it ended but at least I got the good ending. Had a little gazelle guy. The art was wonderful.

Thank you so much!!<3
I really wish I had more time to design even more frens for a longer gameloop D: I hope it wasn't too short!

AWWW!! SO CUTE!! i HAVE to know how many different frens there are!! i think the fight game could've been a little shorter. otherwise super fun. when my fren died i didnt really know why 😭

Thank you sooo so much for your feedback!! There are 8 variations plus the base Fren c: 
A Fren dies when he's at zero happiness for over a minute (you can increase the stat by either petting him once or by playing a game perfectly). Another way he could die would be the 'good ending' (when you max his exp 3 times), which is by far the saddest scene I've ever had to draw :(( 
Thank you again for playing <3
