This sprite needs you

Create a virtual pet, character, or nature simulation that the user can interact with to help it.

What you will make

Create a virtual pet, character, or nature simulation that the user can interact with to help it. Your game will need to meet the project brief.

Virtual pet games are one type of game where users interact with characters to meet the characters' needs. You might have played with a small handheld Tamagotchi or enjoyed games like Catz and Adopt me! on a computer. Can you think of any other virtual pet games?

You will:

Make a character or simulation that is fun or interesting to interact with
Use any combination of variables, broadcast, and if blocks, with the skills you have already learnt, to allow a user to meet the needs of a character
Understand how characters in games and apps are controlled by algorithms

PROJECT BRIEF: Help me grow

You need to create a virtual pet, plant, or other simulation that the user can interact with to meet its needs. You will use variables to keep track of how your main sprite is doing. It might be happy, bored, thirsty, or sleepy.

Your simulation should:

Use at least one variable to keep track of what the main sprite needs
Have a way for the variable(s) to change automatically
Give the user a way to improve the variables to give the main sprite what it needs
Use if blocks to control when things happen
Use broadcast blocks to communicate between other sprites and the main sprite

Your simulation could:

Have a message, such as kindness or keeping crops healthy
Alert the user when levels are too high or low
Allow the user to chat with their sprite, or change its name
