„The full version of The Virtual Buddy is planned to offer a richer experience with more content and interactions.
During Early Access, we're gathering feedback, testing systems, and gradually introducing new features.

In the future, we’re exploring ideas such as new buddies, mini-games, decoration options, customization systems, and some social features.
Improving user experience, optimizing performance, and creating a lively desktop environment are also key goals.

With the full release, we aim to make the digital buddy experience deeper and more enjoyable overall.”

Jaki jest obecny stan wersji z wczesnego dostępu?

„The Virtual Buddy is currently fully playable.
The initial version includes desktop buddies, a core needs system (hunger, thirst, energy, mood, health, toilet), interactive mini-games, accessories, decorative items, and drag-and-drop placement.

The basic gameplay loop, behavior logic, and need tracking systems are all working.
The first virtual buddy characters are fully animated and respond to different conditions.

Future updates will expand content and systems, but we already offer a fun and solid experience to start with.”
