My Personal Hilopet is HERE!
After a several month hiatus, feature creep, and a last minute surge to the finish line, My Personal Hilopet has been officially launched to the public! Version 1.0 is available for download RIGHT NOW!
If you haven't seen the trailer, you can watch it here:
Additionally, I'd like to thank those who have the game wishlisted and have been waiting since 2021. Knowing there's been an audience waiting for the game has pushed me to work more on its development. I'll be much more transparent in future projects, and going through this process has been wonderfully rewarding. If you have questions or suggestions, feel free to drop them in the discord!
So... What's next?
I intend to continue streaming, and to continue developing games with the crew that made hilopet. As they arise, I plan to support hilopet through bug fixes, balances, and additional dialogue! (Might take a little bit of a break before I get to that, though). Additionally, I intend to start working on new titles, either in the same 'world' or similar style! I only half leaned into the physical toy quirk, and I think there's still a lot to explore there. I've considered making an Oregon Trail inspired digital handheld, building off of what I learned here. Additionally, I'd like to learn networking! So expect a multiplayer title in the queue.
Again, thank you for the incredible support. Enjoy the game. Or don't. If you don't though, lemme know why and I'd be happy to try to make some changes.
