Descend into the void, and befriend mysterious creatures that spawn from your emotions. Nurture your oasis through mindfulness and self care. Collect all of the rare species that visit your garden of consciousness!
Hey hunters 👋
Linda and I are excited to share the Voidpet app with you!
We spent the last 13 months building a multiplayer web game where we developed the Voidpet lore and world. After experimenting with some small self-care activities in the game, we were overwhelmed with positive feedback and people begging for us to make a dedicated experience for it.
This app is our take on a fun little self care journal that helps you reflect on yourself while still being a pet collection game. As you continue to set aside time for wellness, work on your feelings, and practice kindness, you'll progress towards befriending all the rare species in the void.
I'm pretty bad at apps for tracking emotions/journaling/etc, so I'm not entirely sure I'd use this, but i kinda like the approach of thinking of your emotions as separate entities from you that you collect and watch. Probably a good practice for removing yourself from things and remember we are not our feelings. I'll queue up to my list of things to try out!
@britt_joiner Glad you put it that way! The concept of separating yourself from your emotions and observing them is the core inspiration behind our game 😃
Emotional naming, CBT, and the concept of “deconstructing the self” are all about learning to identify our emotions separately - and that’s what this little fantasy world is supposed to help portray :)
Really enjoy the concept and I love how the design of each species is entirely unique and influenced by it's emotional characteristics. I was unaware that there was an actual browser game and although I have not played it, videos and reviews of it sound really entertaining. The one thing I do wish that the app version had an about section or sharing that would hint at or explain how the elemental materiald factors into the hatch color or how much, if any, the terrain and plant colorations/combinations influence the vibrance and species spawn/hatch chance. Again, I love the game app, but I do wish that I knew how to get more vivid void pets.. because they look so cool 👀😁
