Ready to get weyrd? We hope so because Malaysian indie studio Weyrdworks has revealed that its virtual pet sim Weyrdlets will launch on Steam on July 23 — and it will be free-to-play! The demo is also part of Steam Next Fest, showcasing its wholesome approach to encouraging focus and enhancing task efficiency.
Described by some as Animal Crossing meets Nintendogs, Weyrdlets is a desktop virtual pet game that seamlessly blends cute pet-caretaking relaxation with the feeling of accomplishment via genuine productivity.
Experience adopting a unique virtual pet with quirky behaviors. Just like in reality, engage in lifelike interactions – pet, grab, feed, and play with your companion both in-game and on your desktop.
Personalize your pet and its environment with accessories and stickers, from Viking hats and shades to charming home decor. Express your style and creativity by decorating your pet and its home with flair.
Increase your productivity with in-game tools on your desktop, including a Pomodoro timer, a to-do list, and then wind down with a daily self-reflection logger. Enjoy enhanced focus and efficiency while your companion keeps you company.
While you immerse yourself in your work, your Weyrdlet will roam around the screen, keeping you company. Additionally, while your pet idles, it earns coins— in-game currency that lets you buy items to customize your pet’s looks and decorate their home!
Weyrdlets also features a Twitch integration, allowing streamers to engage with their communities during co-working streams or while queuing up in their favorite multiplayer titles.
The Weyrdlets demo is available now on Windows PC via Steam, with a full release date of July 23, 2024.
