Remember your old Tamagotchi. It's been a long time. 

Maybe it's time to talk to it again.

Tamagotchi Seance is the third game in a series about loss and the internet called The Waving Back EP. The other two games are Cemetery Walk and Train
The music for all three games is collected here

This game was the start of a special interest in digital pets and death. I got really into the mechanisms behind digital pets, and what they mean to us in the internet age. If you'd like to see more, I also made Tamagotchi Seance #2 and did a whole talk about the subject!

Hi there! I wanted to play through this again but this happened a few seconds into the game. I hope you can fix it somehow because It'd be really sad if this game became unplayable. I hope you have a nice day!

Ah! Thanks for letting me know! I'll have a look and see what's up. I moved all the images since Imgur now has region restrictions, but I must have missed one!

Hey, that should be fixed now. I'd missed a branch of the narrative when I last updated it. Thanks for spotting it, and for playing the game again! 

Thank you so much for the fix!!

I thought you may wanna hear this. After playing the game I got so sad that I decided to put batteries on my old tamagotchi, more than 10 years after it's battery ran out. Surprisingly it worked! But something happened that I didn't know was possible, the tamagotchi, being a tamagotchi connection v4, had a feature I didn't know about, load. I selected it and came face to face with my last tamagotchi, she was alive and well, waiting for me this whole time.

Thanks for making this game, it made me very sad, and then very happy.

Oh my gosh, this is incredible! Thank you so much for sharing! It's wonderful to hear that the game is reaching people in a special way, and I love that inspired you to dig out your own tamagotchi. I didn't know about the load feature either! I'm so glad you got a chance to reconnect with your long-lost friend.

Thank you. Sad, but nice seems to be a feeling popping up in a lot of my games! Thanks for playing.

I expected something way different, loved it still.
